Black Milk updates

{ 2007 03 20 }

Black Milk continues to receive good press in the media.

Popular Demand gets another 4 star rating in a review at HipHopDX.com:

It’s this desire to walk the middle ground between the purity of the underground sound and the accessibility of mainstream hip-hop that characterizes the bulk of the album, which matches the new school’s intelligent lyricism with ol’ school subject matter (braggadocio, materialism, etc.) over infectious beats equally suited for Jeeps, clubs or headphone listening.

There is actually someone out there not feelin’ it, giving it only 2 out of 5 stars (the only negative review I’ve seen so far):

Lyrically, the remainder of the album hangs on by a thin thread. Black mumbles over most of the tracks, clearing the paths for Phat Kat, Ty & Kory, and One Be Lo.

Bol proclaims Popular Demand as the first great hip hop album of 2007, but then makes himself look stupid by disrespecting Dilla in the same article. Not out of character for him since this is the same dude that talked greasy about Proof upon his death.

Then Henry Adaso chimes in with his top ten rap songs of the moment, with “Action” featuring Slum Village and Baatin making the mark.
