Deep Jackson: Sense of Urgency

www.myspace.com/deepjackson

I’m not terribly experienced in reviewing Hip-Hop and/or Rap records as my familiarity with the genres is pedestrian to say the least, so here’s a critique based on experience limited to that of a general listener rather than a hardcore fan.

From that point of view, I’d say Deep Jackson is a pretty good candidate for popular acclaim and success. Rather like Eminem he has very clear diction and the arrangements are fairly uncluttered by complex backing or extraneous noise which, although usually very entertaining, often obscure the message contained within the lyrics.

In fact, the simplicity of some of the orchestrations often means each track has a distinct character of its own. For example, track3 ‘R.H.S.S. [Rain, Hail Sleet, Snow]’ has a sparse backing of piano and chorus, which is very impressive indeed.

At the same time, track 9 entitled ‘Hot Girls’ retains a simple arrangement but clever timing and slick editing makes it sound action-packed and exciting.

Although I’ve always been an advocate of full-on production as in the Wall of Sound, cleverly arranged records such as this illustrate just how effective the opposite technique can be.

So while I know enough to be able say that this record isn’t wildly original in the ground that it covers, it is plainly a very good paradigm for its type.
