Rass Kass - Soul on Ice Review



***** (fuck a A.T.I.'s Stars)

I have listened to this album many times, and i have been falling asleep because of the mystic strange , but somewhat dope production. And with a few more relistens I have fallen in love with this album. From the introductory on earth as it is Rass Kass starts the lyrical " Rassassination"

"Let the commandments begin again
Cause just like moses on mount sinai, I broke all ten"

From then on Rassy just keeps it goin on Anything Goes. With a raunchey grimey Westcoast funky/ Newyork grimey type of beat and an ill constant flow.

And of coarse lyrical strength...even though this is not the best lyrically it's still above and beyond "good".

"Cause jealousy gets you burned like bad perms
If you live you learn, I spit game like chick hearns
To women with, measurements of 38-24-36 with dsls
But money talks esl"

This song is just a laid back Snoop dogg type of track...but with a skilled MC rippin the beat to shreds.
He even switches his flow to sound Warren G ish.

"The phone rang, my little shorty said what you up to, boo?
Nothing, just chillin like bruh-man on martin do
See only when Im tipsy, when my words start slurring
Do I get causght telling lies like mark furhaman"

My favorite beat on the album, Reelishymn is deffinately ill. The realism of the track will deafinately make you think with lyrics like this.

" Im a shadow of my former self
So when the sun sets west,
I rock and slap box with hip-hop;
Cuz its much harder to get props than it is to fall off and flop
I payed dues til I paid do nots.
And will never will what you say affect the outcome --
See, momma always told me opinions are like assholes;
Cuz everyone has got one.
But you couldnt tell me shit if I stepped in it.
Once I enter psychosis, paranormal, focus I perplex niggas and niggettes,
I play this rap shit closer than gilettes against the neck and juglar vien"

The best song on the album. The nature of the threat. I wont say anythin about it because i dont have to....just listen.


http://www.zshare.net/audio/4910036b5babd3/

After that song its hard to understand why he put Etc next. The beat is the worst on the cd and his crew members definately get no shine after rass tears shit up.

"It gets niggaz open like fallopian ovulation
Fuckin these kids like the michael jackson molestations
Sendin ya back as the u.s. nation did aids infected refugee haitians"

Sonset is also not the strongest beat but even with that being said rass shines on every bar. And so far no tracks are weak even without the greatest production because of bars like...


"Pschologically, I masturbate with the hands of fate
So bust nuts on mother nature coming on your landscape"

just dope....

Anyone remember Coolio??...anyway back on track this song has another strange fluty? beat, and a strange collabo. However as you can guess what Rass does ... but Collio's hook is kind of dope... but back, to the focus of the track.

"I try u.n.i.t.y. but why?
Cause when I was lackin, bitches made me want to roll over and die
So now I lie, cause bitches are like flies {why? }
They attract to the best shit {oh!}"

Wow...ill beat....great lyricism imagery and thought provoking.

"
Life is a bitch so fuck it
In eighty-one I remember the night
I covered myself with baby powder, so my black ass could be light"

An amazing track with another great concept. I'll let the hook tell it.

"If bitches aint shit but hoes and tricks,
Then niggas aint shit but hoes with dicks"

Miami Life is another good beat...one of the few but still great. This is basiccaly the conformation of Miami's gangstarism. Still dope....

"Im launchin rockets and scuds at crockett and tubbs
[and tye] full of more rum than a [mai-tai] again despite high
Schoolin, I be high refusin to listen to what the pta say
Eff a four point oh gpa I got a five point oh gta
Hittin the chop shop, with an eta of 3 oclock, so shake the spot
Like luke and them girl with the daisy dukes
Cuz lifes a beach and I forever be wearin my bathing suit"

The second best song after of course the incredible Nature of the threat. This one similarly canot be reviewed it must be herd.

Order Abchao or order out....the final song... a great finisher. The last word on the last verse is the best way to finish this thought provokin album.

"What The Fuck???"

^ I was bein' nice to duke, that's just a no-no, I thought he already knew he spelled Ras wrong, so I didn't say shit. Regardless, duke should be happy, because of my comment his review actually got views.

Yeah, Soul On Ice Is The Shit. The Only Down-Side To It Is That It Can Get Boring At Times. Still A Brilliant Album Though, A Lyrical Masterpiece.
