question:
Heartbreakingly Beautiful . Michael Hoppe is a treasure. From his earliest recordings until his latest, Requiem, I have never been disappointed. Solace does not have one track that you will skip over. The soloists, where there are vocals, are superb and speak straight to the heart. Occasionally we are given a musical gift that lasts us a lifetime. This is one of those gifts.  Therese Tappouni   Writer, Workshop Director, author of A Time to Reap and Walking Your Walk, a Woman's Guide to a Spirit Filled Life
answer:
POS


question:
Deeply disappointing... . I ran out and bought this cd the very day it came out.  Then sat listening anxiously for something to stir inside of me.  Alas, nothing.  A few weeks later, still nothing.  A month later, I tried again.  I yawned...  Then I got up and cleaned the kitchen finding that more interesting.  When I first started listening to Zero 7, I was drawn, pulled, attached to their music.  I got it, it got me--we connected.  My friend Mel asked me the other day how this cd was and I let her listen to it; she yawned and said, "I guess they've lost it".  Should they release another cd, I'd borrow it from the library first and then buy it only if I really love it.  But this cd was deeply disappointing..
answer:
NEG


question:
KRS's weakest entry into his library . I have always been a huge fan of Kris Parker.  I like what KRS has done.  I like what he is doing.  I like the fact that he has never looked to what the masses are putting out and has instead tried from day one to promote positivity.  Therefore, I find that this effort is laudable in its attempt to bring KRS's spirituality to an audience that has been listening to him for decades.    Unfortunately, it falls flat on its face.    The songs on this album do not manage to live up to the message in the lyrics.  KRS is best known for bringing a message to all people by writing about things that could be understood by all people.  That aspect of his work is forgotten on this album, and his work comes across as his preaching instead of his teaching.  It's almost like he's forgotten the experiences that brought about his spirituality, and instead focuses on the goal without paying attention to the trials and tribulations that got him there.    Musically, the beats are mostly just plain terrible, and feel devoid of warmth or personality.  The lyrics feel forced and while his delivery is excellent, the writing is not up to his usual high standard.    Most rappers these days are known for the beats they put together, or the hooks of their songs.  Few are known for true lyrical ability.  KRS has never before fallen victim to this trap.  The reason Criminal Minded, Boom Bap and Necessary did so well was the mix of good writing, excellent delivery and beats that worked with the material presented.  Everyone who listens to hip hop can quote lyrics from those albums (and many, if not most, of KRS's other offerings) - the same can't be said with this album, as he didn't find the right mix to present the material.    Pick up this album if you want a complete KRS ONE collection - otherwise, leave it on the shelf

NEG
