P.I.C. • Sexy Picnic • Riding Mower Records •
Emcees/vocalists J-Bomb, Sulu and Un-G Wasmabati headline this band heavy on sax, keyboards, trumpet, bass, guitar and DJ skills. This funky pimped-out disc is filled with a house party vibe, mixing bursts of horns, Latin rhythms, 70's funk beats and smooth jazz that keeps every track steadily flowing throughout. The good time, big band approach makes this album sound like a live show. Cross amusing hip hop with Frank Zappa and this is what you get, an old school feel that still carries relevance, like what Beck, Sublime and the Beasties once did. The variation of influences inspiring these artists range from the likes of Run DMC, Pharcyde, Tribe, De La and Fishbone, but they stay true to what makes their style distinctive. (JC)
