    If you like Gift of Gab, then check out their buddies Latyrics. They have a crew together called Quannum Projects.

    Latyrics consist of: Lyrics born, Lateef, and DJ Shadow.

    If you love blacka, than you must have Latyrics!

    Hey, I just want to mention that Blackalicious has a previous cd called Nia, which is, in my opinion, better than Blazing arrow, though both of them are excellent albums.

    There is another before Nia. It is an EP called " A2G " Has seven great tunes, some of which are on Nia which I agree is another great album. As for him not changing that is correct if you consider making consistantly great tunes, keeping it real, not having to talk about his gat,hoes,bitches. He is so far from played out and there are not many mc's around who can keep up with his solid and positive content let alone his sheer skill.

    Yo I know he has skills, but the gift of gab and Cheif Xcell let me down on this album. You should check out his stuff on the Quannum Projects. Latyrx is something you should listen. All of Quannum is great I just wish the new Blacka was better.

    Back to the mention of DJ Shadow, I have the new disc but did not spring for the limited edition version. It's really good but not quite as good as "Entroducing". I also just picked up UNKLE (With Shadow and others) and it's awesome.

    I dig the new Blackalicious a lot too.
