Customer Reviews
hip hop jazz at its finest
Us3 goes way beyond their one commercial hit, Cantaloop. They are a true hip hop jazz band, delighting the senses with rhymes over beats, brass and piano. A winner for fans of hip hop.
Funky Hip Hip & Cool Jazz = Acid Jazz
Broadway & 52nd is much better than US3's debut Hand on The torch. Their debut CD got more radio/video play than Broadway & 52nd due to the middle of the road pop appeal of Cantaloop (flip Fantasia). Not a traditional pop song but a very creative twist on jazz. Cantaloop introduce Acid Jazz To the main stream - but it never really caught on, here in the states. Broadway & 52nd takes it to the next level and kicks it up a few notches. Intelligent Hip Hop(rap)Dominates most of the CD, and I would not recommend if your not into Hip Hop. I happend to love jazz and Hip Hop as well so the union of the two is fantasic. But I would recommend if you like cool music to chill out to. That's not your traditional elevator music or the stuff you here on the radio over and over again. This CD is Jazzy, Funky with a lot to Rap about and I like it alot. This CD Had the number one spot in my CD Player for 3 months and was played almost every day. Considering I purchase and listen to Plenty of music, 3 months is a long time. There have only been three other CD's that I played daily for that long or longer, and they are, Lauryn Hill's - The Mis-Education Of Lauryn Hill - Erykah Badu's - Live CD - and Guru's Jazzmatazz A new reality. And if you love any of those 3 CD's then you will definately at least LIKE Broadway & 52nd. Caught up in the struggle and True to the game are my favorites and should of been released as singles. Over all I like US3 and have just purchased their 3rd CD - An ordinary day in an unusual place(import), I hope I like as much as this one.
audio soul food
Some of the finest beats and tastiest sampling to come out of the 90s for sure. I have worn out 3 copies of this record personally. KCB has one of the smoothest flows of any rapper today...This record is so dope y'all! It has all the righteous elements of acid jazz with somewhat of a more improvisational approach in the mix. Brimming with a real sense of positivity, I can't wait for the new material. Peace y'all.
