I haven't yet gotten over the yes, excellent Joe and Insanate’s Excellent LP that came out in April (though I only discovered it a couple of months ago) meanwhile The Other Album is out and it's no disappointment no sir. The Other Guys, two cousins from DC, producer Joseph “Mighty Joe” Myles and emcee Isaiah "Insanate" Mensah, apparently call what they do 'alternative hip hop weirdo soul’. don't know about weirdo, doesn't sound weird to me but it sure is different and it sure is good good. soulful and jazzy with contributions from local jazzmen Tony Washington, Peter Lewis, James Morris and Mighty Joe himself on the piano and with some tight intelligent lyrics, the album's one of the best things around n a free download too. don't sleep on this one people shit is beautiful
also they team up with one of my favourite rappers a fellow DMC dweller Substantial on this one. nice
also also check out P.SO' s So Enormous produced by The Other Guys off his new modestly titled upcomng album Gateway to Greatness. we'll see about that soon. I'm not a huge fan of the strings on this one I have to say. then again I'm not a huge fan of strings period.
