I-Testament is a calculated attempt to increase dancehall singer Capleton's appeal to the contemporary urban artists of America. That means that whatever genuine reggae roots he had are now smoothed over, but that isn't necessarily bad, since his voice is powerful and convincing. I-Testament owes more to sinewy, seductive contemporary R&B rhythms influenced by ragga and dancehall than to reggae itself, but much of this music is solidly constructed, such as the soulful "Hurts My Heart." There's still a bit of filler on I-Testament, but the best moments make it a winning record. ~ Leo StanleyRolling Stone (3/5/98, p.68) - 3 Stars (out of 5) - "...Chanting down Babylon, repatriating Ethiopia, worshipping Haile Selassie and denouncing `politricks' are all themes that continue to dominate his lyrics....I-TESTAMENT pust smoothed-out familiar beats at the center..."

Something’s fishy in the Motor City and it isn’t the Detroit River . We can sit here and type the normal boring press release to get your attention, but actually we are REALLY REALLY excited to just tell YOU what the heck is going on in the fishing world, Rock and roll baby, rock and frickin roll is taking over the boats across the Midwest !! That’s right, like what it did for NASCAR in the past, rock and roll and fishing ARE now bringing the sport of fishing more into the public eye! Pete Maina, America’s favorite Muskie fisherman and host of the popular Versus show “The Next Bite” has teamed up with former Uncle Cracker guitarist Brian Shram to mix rock and roll and fishing with the NEW release “Rockin Fish Tales” due out in stores November 28 th. That’s right we are bringing you the hippest, coolest fishing record JUST in time for the holidays. "I've waited years for it: a Fishin' Rocker - and a rockin' fishing record! Great friend and fishing partner Shram nailed it! Brian's awesome Muskie Maniac song was the inspiration ... from adrenaline-rush-in-your-face rock -- to bluesy -- to the ("Skunked") ballad, Shram's Rockin Fish Tales is the perfect musical "lure". Fish and fishers of all ...
This Gigantic Robot Kills
Mc Lars This Gigantic Robot Kills CD  (2009)

I-Testament
CD $11.85  Audio Samples
On THIS GIGANTIC ROBOT KILLS's opening track, "True Player for Real," a self-deprecatory parody of hip-hop brag-a-thons, MC Lars announces his "childhood hero" "Weird Al" Yankovic on accordion with a "this means we made it, guys." There's both intentional irony and genuine oh-my-gosh exuberance in his voice, a reaction that explains both essence and appeal of the hip-hop satirist from Berkeley. He's an expert at endearingly poking fun at fads and fops; the title track gently prods those who long for the days of third wave ska while "Hipster Girl" accurately depicts Brooklynites o.d.'ing on trendiness. THIS GIGANTIC ROBOT KILLS breaks little new ground, but that hardly matters as MC Lars is simply one of the best in the nerdcore biz and the record is pure candy fun.
MC Lars is up to his usual tricks on full-length album number ...

Asleep In The Bread Aisle
Asher Roth Asleep In The Bread Aisle CD  (2009)

I-Testament
CD $12.05  3.8 stars Audio Samples
The second-coming of sorts to literate white MCs like Paul Barman, Asher Roth's full-length debut came heavily hyped, thanks to his appearance on a DJ Drama mixtape and a stamp of approval from Jay-Z. Given Roth's knack for wordplay and arcane references, ASLEEP IN THE BREAD AISLE could have been more subversive. It's often difficult to discern when the suburban Pennsylvanian is sending up the trappings of the hip-hop lifestyle. Either way, he's learned his lessons well from heroes like Eminem; the class-clown chatterbox flow matches up well with the alterna-pop production and left-of-center guest spots by Cee-Lo and Jazze Pha. ASLEEP is at times contrived, but displays the talents of a rapper with the potential for something unique.
Sold as hip-hop's Great White Dope, rapper Asher Roth ("The King of the Blumpkin") came on the scene with the great "I Love College," an infectious slacker anthem as simple as "I love college, I love drinkin', I love women" and with a "Chug! Chug! Chug!" chant in the middle. A hilarious 18-minute freestyle on Tim Westwood's radio show made him all the more lovable, but Asleep in the Bread Isle is an everyday suburban rap album, if there is such a thing. The first problem is the big cut itself, now stripped of its Weezer sample thanks to Rivers Cuomo's reluctance to license the riff to "Say It Ain't So." It blows the whole mash-up charm of the original bootleg, but it's still a party starter, and one with a conscience as it fights against date rape and suggests doubling up on the condoms. That doesn't mean Asher is the responsible type, as "Blunt Cruisin'" drives around town stoned, while ...
