 (2 Customer Reviews)
KISS OF DEATH balances street knowledge with humor, and serves up robust beats and guest shots by a legion of hip-hop luminaries. Jadakiss brings together both American coasts, as well as years of history, on the groovy, 1970s-tinged "Shine," with Cali's Snoop Dogg and NYC's DJ Quik packing some of their best rhymes. On the other end of the spectrum is the rock-sampling "Welcome to D-Block," featuring Jadakiss's former Lox bandmates and a relatively subdued Eminem. Of course, Jadakiss can unleash some serious rhymes on his own, especially on the hardcore title track and the melodic "Bring You Down." A dynamic sophomore effort, KISS OF DEATH cements Jadakiss's status as one of the premier forces in East Coast rap.
On his second solo record, KISS OF DEATH, Jadakiss begins the wistful, reflective song "Why" with the question, "Why is Jadakiss as hard as it gets?" Unwavering confidence contrasted by soft introspection is a trademark of the ex-Lox member, and this quality distinguishes the Yonkers, New York rapper from his peers.
Personnel: Jadakiss (rap vocals); Mariah Carey, Anthony Hamilton (vocals); DJ Quik, Eminem, Kanye West, Nate Dogg, Sheek, Snoop Dogg, Styles P (rap vocals).

| | Larry Gold Presents Don Cello & Friends CD (2003) (Import)
Kiss Of Death songs
$14.69
The concept behind Larry Gold Presents Don Cello and Friends isn't all that different from The Philadelphia Experiment or Quincy Jones albums like Back on the Block and Q's Jook Joint. Bringing together an impressive cast of soul legends and newer figures, Larry Gold -- the string arranger and cellist behind several Philly soul classics -- steps out from the background to produce this album with the help of several others. It's heavy on new versions of old songs, including a look at "Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now" (titled "No Stoppin'") that includes McFadden & Whitehead and a turn from the Roots' Black Thought. Though the younger contributors give the album a good supply of powerful energy, it's Bunny Sigler's turn on the modern-day quiet storm "Can I" that truly wows. It's a fine tribute to the still-active Gold, one of the many behind-the-scenes figures of '70s soul and disco that was as crucial to the songs -- if not more so -- than the vocalists in front of them. ~ ...
| | Donell Jones Journey Of A Gemini CD (2006)
Kiss Of Death album
$8.99
The fourth album by urban R&B artist Donell Jones rivals his 2002 commercial breakthrough, LIFE GOES ON. There are no radical stylistic departures here, which is a good thing for Jones fans. JOURNEY OF A GEMINI is a solid urban contemporary effort, suffused in equal measure with the aesthetics of hip-hop and Jones's silky-smooth, old-school crooning.
JOURNEY enjoys top-notch production from the Underdogs and Tim & Bob, among others, and the tunes find a comfortable middle ground between uptempo club tracks and honey-sweet bedroom ballads. ...

$7.95
As on her debut album, Stranger on Earth, Shelina Ward (aka Lina), aided and abetted by producer/arranger Jeeve, mixes old swing elements into her otherwise unremarkable neo-soul tunes. In the musical tracks, Jeeve displays an affection for string and horn sounds, sometimes appropriately distressed as if taken from ...
| | M C Lyte Seven & Seven CD (1998)
Kiss Of Death music CDs
$6.09
Ten years after releasing her first album, MC Lyte delivered Seven & Seven, her sixth album. During that time, Lyte remained remarkably unchanged, and Seven & Seven proves to be startlingly similar to the slick, R&B-influenced hip-hop she's been turning out since Lyte as a Rock. At times, that's not too bad, although the album has an exhausting 77-minute running length. There are good songs on the album, to be sure. ~ Leo Stanley

There are good songs buried in the album, to be sure -- it just takes too much time to dig them out. ~ Leo Stanley

Kiss Of Death album
$12.69
Anticon has to be applauded for their constant efforts to push the limits of hip-hop. Clouddead's self-titled full-length managed to match the ambience of Brian Eno's experiments with Kerouac lyrics and confounding beats. But Dose One's other outfit, Themselves -- his duo with producer Jel -- while nearly as ambitious, fails to really engage the listener. Sure, The No Music has its high points -- ...

American death metal bands have been seriously outnumbered by Scandinavian death metal bands since the mid-1990s, but let's not forget that during the early years of death metal, some of the most important groups were from the United States-including pioneers like Obituary, Death, Slayer, Cannibal Corpse, Necrophagia, and Deicide. And when it comes to technical death metal, there is no denying how influential American death metallers Suffocation have been since the early 1990s. It's safe to say that when Suffocation's original lineup was formed, the last thing they had on their minds was a 19th anniversary--death metal was so extreme, so left-of-center, and so blistering, those early death metal bands weren't exactly thinking in terms of longevity. But Suffocation's influence endured, and BLOOD OATH offers a vicious dose of the stubbornly technical death metal they are known for. Suffocation, like ...
