The Professional Part II ( explicit)
What would you call a DJ who has yet to publicly display any ability to cut, scratch, or mix? One whose shouts of irksome catch phrases interrupt each and every selection? Would you call him... the Professional? Never mind the semantics: Queens-bred DJ Clue is back withPart 2of his hugely popular mix CD series. It features the expected cast of playas, playettes, and wave riders, alongside one or two tight-bellied new jacks. Aside fromMary J.'s Yonkers-inflectedCaron Wheelerimpersonation,Jay-Z's freestyle overBiggie's "Who Shot Ya" beat, and a mildly enjoyableSnoopandKuruptcombo, everyone's pretty much benchwarming forRedman, whose "RED" irrevocably confirms his status as most valuable poet on the m.i.c.  So, when's that next album dropping, Red?--Rebecca Levine
