The jewel in the Beasties crown and my favourite hip hop album. The evolution from cartoon b-boys to socially conscious MC's was complete withn Ill Communication. The songs are built on a solid foundation of bass, drums and guitar with samples used as adornments rather than the building blocks of the songs. This organic feel suits the maturing Beasties with MCA's spiritual views to the forefront on the likes of Bodhisattva Vow but the vocal interplay is still full of wit and the addition of Q-Tip on Get it Together is inspired. The album stays fresh over it's 20 songs by mixing in hardcore and instrumental jams. An absolute classic.
sethmadsen 09/02/2012 05:19Love the style change on this one. Really good tones, beats, etc.
The Beasties never settled for what was safe and seemed determined to evolve from CD to CD. That's evident here - this sounds nothing like what came before. Great tracks include Sure Shot, Vow, and Sabotage.
lightmyway 05/04/2012 08:37This album perfects what they did on Check Your Head and throws some new things into the mix as well. Every track throws you for a loop. A real work of art.
All their records are fun, fav tracks; root down, sure shot.
This is a lesson on how to sample, how to construct funky loops and melodies, and how to transmit attitude onto an album. Eminem wishes he could pull it off like these white guys. One of the best, if not THE best hip-hop album of all time. This should be higher on everyone's list.
