Above average: Not too shabby, commendable effort
3.5
Hip Hop producer Ski Beatz, known for his work with the likes of Camp Lo, Jay-Z and Fat Joe is back with this latest project 24HR Karate School. This album which original started out as a mixtape features a collective young, new artist that have been drawn to the DD172 art space and shows that are produced there. A few of my favorite tracks include "Nothing But Us", Super Bad", "Prowler 2", "Cream of The Planet" and "Not Like Me". Production is solid and in my opinion sets a new standard for raw streethop. Features range from Curren$y, Stalley, Smoke DZA and Wiz Khalifa to Jean Grae, Jim Jones, Mos Def, Jay Electronica and The Cool Kids. One could say that this album is a producer's playground. Ski Beatz and 24HR Karate School may be just what hip hop needs right now. Check this album out.
