Review

"The Last Poets were the first real hardcore rappers." --Ice Cube

Those who believe that there are no second acts in American lives ought to consider the career of post-apocalyptic urban griots The Last Poets. Hailed for the fiery intensity of their politics and their poetry from the moment they emerged in the late Sixties, The Last Poets spit forth a series of brilliant albums in the Seventies, split up and nearly guttered out in the Eighties, and reemerged in the Nineties into the embrace of a new generation of word-intoxicated rappers who recognize that the Poets' fire and intelligence are more necessary than ever. For the first time in over twenty years, original members Umar Bin Hassan and Abiodun Oyewole (aka Dune) reunited under The Last Poets banner and released Holy Terror, an album as vital and relevant as any work by the Poets in the 70's. Produced by Bill Laswell, Holy Terror features additional lyrics and vocals by Grandmaster Melle Mel, fat, funky grooves from Bootsy Collins and Bernie Worrell as well as a bonus remix track with guest vocals by George Clinton.
