Hip-Hop Albums of the Year

D.J. Paul & Juicy "J" — (Part. 3) Spring Mix '95


Part III of DJ Paul & Juicy J cassettes. 37 minutes, 10 tracks, 2 outro. It maintains the Three 6 Mafia and, more generally, Memphis rap formula, with tracks that are composed mainly of lines repeated in loops that seem to have no end on rhythms that are mesmerizing and beautiful in their simplicity and rawness. The cassette seems at the same time to broaden and take away your ability to adjective, then even after having listened to this project several times, it's difficult to describe it. Very difficult. Some guys here have done it spectacularly and I recommend reading their reviews. Personally, I find the tape to be lush, relaxed and creepy, leading me to think this is one of the closest hip-hop projects to "Twin Peaks" that exist and have come out around this period.

Rating: 9/10.
