Celph TItled & Buckwild — Nineteen Ninety More


For this sequel of "Nineteen Ninety Now", Buckwild brings out five more tracks on which to unleash Celph Titled (all pretty good, gloomy/deep dark mood, with a nice tribute to Big L and "Put It On" in "Buck's Four Course Meal"), and he borrow three from "Presents...". So, he places for us over 40 instrumentals, practically all of them work and they are excellent beats with some high notes ("Interlude 1" and "Interlude 5": the latter is a gem, light, relaxing, flawless jazzy boom bap. [Among] his finest) and excellent jazzy instrumentals accompanied from the classic Christmas bells by Buckwild, his trademark ("Interlude 2"; "Interlude 3" winks at J Dilla; "Bonus Beat 1", "2" & "4"). On what appears to be an extended play of Buckwild & Celph Titled album praised by fans and critics, the guests are Laws, Outerspace, Cella Dwellas, Lord Digga, Rise, Sadat X, Grand Puba, AG, OC, Diamond D and Kwest tha Madd Lad. The material is similar to the previous effort and lacks of very strong tracks, ultimately falling below the previous year's album. Recommended for fans. 7/10.
