On his eagerly anticipated 2007 debut, THE BRICK, Brooklyn-based hip-hop artist Joell Ortiz unleashes a torrent of potent rhymes, revealing exactly why he was long touted as the one of the finest unsigned rappers on the planet. With its strikingly spare sonic backdrops and tough-love NYC attitude, the record allows Ortiz's hard-hitting flow to stand out over all else, as best evinced on the fierce "125 Grams Pt. 1."

Crazy Crazy Sick!!
One of the best albums I've heard in a while. Reminiscent to that now considered Old school Hip Hop, true to its form. If you enjoy 90's Hip Hop (before bling and commercialization)such Nas, JayZ, Big Pun, then this is another one for the collection.

I guess he's from New York!
Hopefully he won't be sidelined by 50 and other (hyped) artists on Interscope.
That been said, this album is crazy from top to bottom. This joint could be called Press Play (and let it run). THIS IS HIP HOP.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No What New York Needs
This album is good. If you're more of a lyrical cat then this is your album. It brings back the old school hip hop of New York. Joell Ortiz raps what he wants to rap. If you wanna learn a knew dance, or bring this into the club then don't buy it. THIS IS WHAT HIP HOP IS ABOUT.

Purchase Brick-Bodega Chronicles CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Pretty Ricky Bluestars CD (2005)
Brick-Bodega Chronicles album
 $10.15   
"Get You Right," a smooth throwback ballad from Miami outfit Pretty Ricky's debut, BLUESTARS, features a hardcore rap that name-checks 1990s groups H-Town and Jodeci. While the four youthful brothers of Pretty Ricky were likely in grade school when these artists had their hits, it's a fitting reference; the quartet's sound reveals an innate feel for the New Jack Swing sound of that time. This approach is evident in both the record's production and its raw sensuality, and the overall vibe is updated with a Dirty South sensibility.
Pretty Ricky features three rappers--Slick, Spectacular, and Diamond--augmented by the resonant voice of Pleasure, whose alluring style ...

Long before Houston rap came to define the sound of the Dirty South, UGK (the Underground Kingz), along with the Geto Boys, were holdin' it down strong for H-Town. While the duo of Bun B and Pimp C never achieved major cross-over success--spitting woozy gangsta tales a few too many years before mainstream radio was prepared for them--they gained a loyal fanbase and the respect of their fellow MCs (chief among them Jay-Z, who featured UGK on his classic track "Big Pimpin'").
