Review
Lateef and Lyrics Born (the two lobes of the Latyrx brain) definitely take symmetry seriously--right down to the CD booklet design on The Album. The first track, "Latyrx"--one of several produced by DJ Shadow--is relentless and spacy, with a mind-blowing left-right channel lyrical assault whipping through your headphones faster than a Pete Sampras overhand smash. It's one of many: try defending your ears on tracks like "The Wreckoning," "Burning Hot in Cali...," and the Lyrics Born freestyle on "Off (with) Their Heads (Be Prompt)." Though The Album's groove is sometimes alien funk ("Say That"), sometimes jazz ("Bad News"), it unfortunately tends to be more academic than ass-shaking. However, if you have any respect for rhyme skills, The Album is still required listening. --Todd Levin
