And the music is also high quality and follows this script: Heavy Public Enemy type sounds, tons of scratching and urgent rhymes, delivered with vitriol. It feels a bit lighter than Public Enemy, and without Flavour's clowning it requires a more vigilant listen. For me, Crossroads was a highlight - lots of samples firing off, some rock records I didn't recognise but it was furious.
So I enjoyed listening to it but, despite the lightness, I found it fairly unmemorable - one of those weird records which is a solid listen but it doesn't have quite enough oomph to have you coming back for more. The itunes version I bought added a couple of single tracks which suggest that there's more to Black Radical than meets the eye.
No live for Black Radical so heres the Crossroads:
