Description :
AMG :
"Brand New Heavies play the sh*t that/People used to listen to in '70s
Chevys." With that succinct and flawless couplet from the awesome
opening track, "Bonafide Funk," Large Professor helped to explain why
there was a certain herd of influential rappers who were enthralled by
the Brand New Heavies' sleek (some would say slick) and urbanely
stylish Anglo take on classic American funk and soul after the quartet
released its eponymous debut in 1991: They were pulling the very same
vintage-groove LPs from their crates for inspiration. When the Heavies
made their first trip to American shores, both Q-Tip and 3rd Bass' MC
Serch were quick to show their respect by hopping on-stage with the
band (likely the event that planted the seed for Heavy Rhyme
Experience), and the latter rapper even predicted that The Brand New
Heavies would be the source material for a decade's worth of loops and
samples for rap producers. Serch's enthusiastic forecast never quite
materialized, but it is hard to argue with his logic after you hear
this landmark collaborative experiment. A live hip-hop band wasn't a
complete novelty at the time -- proto-rapper Gil Scott-Heron utilized
jazz backing, Tackhead was the house band for Sugarhill Records all the
way back in the late '70s, and the self-proclaimed "world's one and
only hip-hop band," Stetsasonic had been fully live for several years
by that point -- but never before had rap taken such an on-the-fly,
jam-like approach. Spontaneous combustion resulted. Never before (and
perhaps never since) had the Heavies managed to sound this deliciously
in-the-pocket and playful, and the MCs beautifully follow their lead.
Guru sounds looser and more whimsical on "It's Gettin Hectic" than on
any Gang Starr track. Simon Bartholomew's teasing guitar lines poke
holes in Grand Puba's swollen-tongued bluster on "Who Makes the Loot?"
Kool G. Rap is given the blaxploitation backing he had always deserved.
And Ed. O.G. and Pharcyde do verbal gymnastics that must be heard. But
every vocalist here blooms from the pairing. The only regret is that
N'Dea Davenport was not included in some capacity, considering how much
she added to the Heavies. Too bad, as well, that there was never a
volume two. One wonders what sort of magic Posdnuos and Trugoy of De La
Soul, the Leaders of the New School trio, Rakim, or Chuck D. could have
conjured had they been tapped as collaborators, or from the West Coast
Ice Cube and Del tha Funkee Homosapien. Still, Heavy Rhyme Experience,
Vol. 1 is a match made in heaven. by Stanton Swihart
