Saul Williams
»rank: 25223
0ur Review: :Arriving six years after he made a splash with the film Slam and three years after his debut disc Amethyst Rock Star, the second album from spoken-word standout Saul Williams is a knot of contradictions. lt challenges hip-hop orthodoxy through the liberal use of heavy rock samples and beats (see especially 'Grippo')--not to mention incendiary cameos from rockers Serj Tankian (System of a Down) and Zack De La Rocha (Rage Against the Machine)--but it also gets bogged ...

Amethyst Rock Star
»rank: 35479
0ur Review: :Performed by a raucous sextet made up of beats, bass, guitar, cello, viola, and griot, Saul Williams hip-hop sounds like modern chamber music. lt's music informed as much by Hendrix's star-strangled striations and Miles Davis's alchemical electric period as it is the krunk-krunk of contemporary hip-hop. 0n Amethyst Rock Star Williams exorcises urban music of its self-destructive excess, channeling its rowdy energy into a ritualized raising of consciousness. The single 'Penny for a Thought' breaks into jacked-up ...

Black Stacey
»rank: 805976
0ur Review: :From the self-titled album, Saul Williams brings diversity and melody to his mostly spoken word album. While he is a poet, Williams does sing, chant, yell, rap, and moan over both hip-hop and rock rhythms and melodies. The music of Saul Williams can truly take the listener by surprise. Musically and lyrically, he pushes the envelope like Andre 3OOO, Common, Cee-Lo, Tre Hardson, Erykah Badu, and Lauryn Hill. 'Black Stacey' is an insightful tale of his ...
