Title: The beats and rhymes don't make a "konexion"
Review: Freddie Foxxx - Konexion (Rapster, 2003)What a disappointment this album is. And they wonder why file-sharing programs exist, so you can listen to the album before you buy it! On every song of this album, either the production is decent or the lyrics are tight; it's one of the other, never both. The only exception to this is "Me!!" when Bumpy Knucks drops jewel after jewel over a nice beat: "I seen Q-Tip turn into Maxwell and Shyne go to jail/White boys want my culture but they don't want my life/'Cuz when they stop being n****s they go back to being white". But in the song before that, he spits wack rhymes like, "I'm not like you/You're not like me/No matter what they say, boy/You're not like me". Also, why is he always so mad? He complains that the industry is shady but it's hard to take him seriously with these plastic beats. He needs more beats from Primo, Pete Rock, Alchemist, and even himself like Industry Shakedown had. -EJR
