This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Pitch Black: D.G., Devious, Fast, G.O.D., Zakee (rap vocals). Additional personnel: Busta Rhymes, Foxy Brown. Producers include: Swizz Beatz, DJ Premier, Teddy Riley, Nottz, Richard Frierson. This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. In rap's ever-widening spectrum Pitch Black are right in the center. They're straight-up hip-hop -- sometimes to a fault -- and while they don't embarrass themselves lyrically, they'll never be accused of being revolutionary. Their style is classic, simple, and the reason why producers are most responsible for the successes and failures on Pitch Black Law -- an album with more highlights than usual, and some filler -- is that it's just plain dull. With DJ Premier at the controls, Pitch Black's adequate skills fit just right. The rhymes don't get in the way of Premier's loopy string samples on "It's All Real," an exciting kick-off single that paints the album as much more necessary than it really is. Teddy Riley shoots for the mainstream on both of his tracks, weakening the crew's punch on "My Life" but recovering with "Geechy"'s infectious, shuffling party-beats. After hearing Premier and Riley do their thing, tracks from Swizz Beatz, Amar Pep, and the crew's in-house production team aren't nearly as exciting. The guest spots are few, with Foxy Brown spitting out some vicious rhymes on "Got It Locked" -- another winner from Premier -- while "R You Ready 4 This" adds another useless Busta Rhymes appearance to the pile. Considering it took Pitch Black ten years to get to their debut, it's easy to imagine that being overly ambitious got in the way of delivering an album that was more even. If they devote as much energy to keeping it fresh as they do to keeping it real, they'll likely deliver a classic. Still, they back up their true hip-hop stance with solid rhymes, and there's enough promise on Pitch Black Law to keep them on your "watch" list. [Pitch Black Law was also released in a "clean" edition, containing no profanities or vulgarities]. ~ David Jeffries Pitch Black has been honing its art on streets, stages, and mixtapes for nearly a decade leading up to its debut record, PITCH BLACK LAW. Fittingly, the five rappers who comprise the Brooklyn crew--D.G., Fast, G.O.D., Devious, and Zakee--play off each other's rhymes with an almost preternatural ease, tossing off deft lyrics that flow one into another. On PITCH BLACK LAW, the group paints a mostly positive but still sexual and street-savvy picture as exemplified on the sanctified and catchy "It's All Real" ("I ain't tryin' to see death, disease or the penitentiary"). Skillfully produced by the talented DJ Premier, that track highlights the exceptional level of production values on this record. Teddy Riley brings his timeworn style to the electronically funky and grammar-heavy "Geechy" and the enveloping call-and-response "My Life," while the incomparable Swizz Beatz provides his irrefutable heavy beats on tracks like the brash "N.Y.C." and the dizzy dance anthem "Shake That." But it's the solid, effortless rhyming that holds the record together between its powerful beats, and the kaleidoscopic "To Be the Best" captures a tight hip-hop outfit in all its glory.

| Pitch Black Law Music Review Average Rating: (4.3 out of 5 stars)   Damn Man its like they slam harder than onyx, i love the way these guys rap and all, and when i listen to pitch black on my cd player, i'll just turn the volume all the way up and nod to the beats cuz these guys rule man Submitted by James (Baltimore, MD, USA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Hot of tha press I'm glad to see a group thats finally bringin it's own style to the rap game. These guys are themselves which a lot of rappers are lacking in these days. I knew they were gonna be hot when I first heard "It's all real". There might have been like 1 or 2 songs i wasn't feeling but overall it was good. if I could say one thing to them I would say please don't sellout and stay true. Holla back at your next cd!

Purchase Pitch Black Law CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Eminem Relapse CD (2009)
Pitch Black Law
$10.85 Audio Mixers: Dr. Dre; Eminem. Lyrical acrobat Slim Shady returns after a five-year absence with his fifth major label release, continuing to strike the perfect balance between brooding insight and absolute silliness on 2009's RELAPSE. Opening single "Crack a Bottle" reunites Detroit's maddest rapper with his superstar mentor (Dr. Dre) and protege (50 Cent) on a fittingly funky tour de force. Eminem's RELAPSE, a double album released after five years of recorded silence, a record featuring Dr. Dre behind the boards for the first time since 2000, faced no shortage of the relentless pressure of expectations. A narrative of survival after facing down his demons in rehab unfurled with Eminem's usual twisted Swift-ian wit, RELAPSE should disappoint few fans (or critics for that matter) with its patented mix of hilariously spit venom and delirious self-loathing. Like Darren Aronofsky's adaptation of REQUIEM FOR A DREAM, 2009's RELAPSE finds the full horror element in drug addiction. Eminem's raps, for all their over-the-top humor, have always conjured up images fit for Fangoria, but as he comes out of rehab, seeking solace from his demons, Mr. Mathers amps up the gore on RELAPSE. Dre's beats lurk dark-thumping sinister while Em unleashes nightmare ...

| | Barry White Unlimited CDs (2009) With Book; With DVD; Box Set; Special Edition
Pitch Black Law
$63.98 Tributee: Barry White. Liner Note Authors: Ed Greene; Quincy Jones; Barry White. Photographer: Bobby Holland. UNLIMITED is more substantial than it appears. Looking like a five-dollar box of chocolates, with its contents printed on a large black sticker slapped onto the back, it improves upon 1992's JUST FOR YOU box in breadth and (once you open the thing) presentation. The only potential problem for some listeners is that 20 of the songs appear in "alternate versions" -- a gentle way of saying "2009 remixes." The mixes were done by Jack Perry, Barry White's musical director and engineer, and they do retain the integrity of the originals. One would have to be fairly familiar with the material to discern ...
