 |  | Defprince review on Big daddy kane's " taste of chocolate " |  |
This is a Big Daddy Kane product. Laced with funky beats, comical and dope lyrics. My favourites are " Cause i can do it right ", "It's hard being the Kane", "No damn good " and my best one "Mr pitiful". Big daddy kane is himself in this album it's seriously funny. If you enjoy "It's a big daddy thing", "Looks like a job for the Kane" and "Long live the Kane" three of his previous albums, then you'll like this one.
April 2, 2008 | | Tracks with a TASTE OF CHOCOLATE to satisfy any rap fan. | |
Its hard to believe that this album was released 17years ago and is still off the hook. Its basically a fun album that reminds you of the type of hiphop that used to be out and influenced so many artists like Nas, Biggie and Jay-Z (whom Kane made him his hypeman and one of his 1st appearances on the "Show N Prove" track from his "Daddy's Home" album). Kane is widely credited as one of the finest to ever do it, a legend and an icon. Kane's delivery and versatility has always been one of his strongest points but at times its also been his Achilles heel. Tracks like "All Of Me" and "Big Daddy vs. Dolemite" were very difficult to get into as a result, compared to the rest of this album. The other 9 tracks, intro and outro are perfect even after this amount of time. The beats are excellent. Both funky and smooth. Kane's rhymes are outstanding with a vast array of wit, humour and intelligence. His delivery is sharp as a ginsu, as usual. The standouts from the remaining 9 tracks were "Cause I Can Do It Right", "Its Hard To Be The Kane", "Who Am I?", "Keep'em On The Floor" and "Put Your Weight On It". A definite must-have for any Kane/rap fan.
April 3, 2007| | | FOR ME AS WELL, THIS WAS HIS LAST TRULY ESSENTIAL EFFORT | |
this is the last one that truly shows why kane is one of the best mcs ever to pick up a mic. like i said, i wish that he was more consistent with his other albums. this one is pretty much like the other one.....many styles.......sharp delivery. however, this one lacks that oomph of the first two. i just wonder if he would be talked about more if he made two to four more essential recordings. nevertheless, kane is the man!!!!
February 1, 20074.5 stars - Kane's 3rd outing proved to be the last one to showcase the King as he should be remembered. Production by Juice Crew chief Marley Marl is solid as usual. King Asiatic Nobodoy's Equal brings the smooth heat once again. Collaborations with Barry White, Gamilah Shabazz (Malcolm X's daughter) and Dolemite broaden the album, but still fit within the Kane coolness. Of course, he has a few songs to brag about how slick he is, but he does show a deeper side on a couple of tracks as well. Not his best album, but still light years ahead of most of the bubble-gum-pop-rap coming out nowadays. Highlights include "It's Hard Being the Kane", "Dance with the Devil", and "Put Your Weight on It."
April 12, 2006| | | the last tight cd from big daddy kane | |
I loved this cd way back in 1990 kane drops some tight rhymes in his trademark flow and I love big daddy vs dolemite it is hilarious while dolemite woops kane with his old school flow, can't forget who am I where kane drops science on being black and features the daughter of malcolm x of all other people and dance with the devil has kane preaching out on violence and drugs in the hood worth a listen for oldheads.
