ALBUM . ———————————————————————— ——— BOUNTY KILLER My Xpjriince An eclectic blend of hardcore hip-hop beats, barking ragga rants and an array of samples, this opus from BK hits hard while remaining accessible. Rodney's reputation is sealed in his sizjable array of collaborators. Fugees contribute to the suitably histrionic Hip-Hopjra, while Junior Reid, Wu Tang, Jerk Da Damaja, Bursa Rhzmjs and Barrington Ljvz appear elsewhere. The one criticism of this LP is that at 20-tracks it is rather overlong. \ ——————————————————————————————————1/2—— Audioweb break the bank 483 TOTAL ENTERTAINMENT! p400 Charts Tours Tours Full guideP484 Teletext 484 Jan21 18:54:10 NEW . ALBUM . ———————————————————————— ——— POPSICLE Popsicle This Swedish four-piece adopt a very traditional notion of pure pop (all quasi "classic" hooks, jangling guitars and infectious melodies) on this, their third and most commercial album. Sound familiar? Popsicle (awful name by the way) are njithjr as otherworldly as fellow Scandinavians The Cardigans or as outright retro as Wannadies, leaving their sound floating in a vacuum. This LP is "nice"(ish), but there's nothing spectacularly new about it. \ ——————————————————————————————————2/2—— Are you Xpjrienced?
