Slick Rick - The Art of Storytelling
AMG Review
--- Quote ---If there's one thing Slick Rick has mastered, it is The Art of Storytelling. Ever since his debut, The Great Adventures of Slick Rick, he has been known for his literate, winding narratives, but his career was marred by legal troubles that kept him in prison for much of the '90s. Consequently, The Art of Storytelling is only his fourth album, but it's the first to rank as a worthy sequel to his classic debut. The Ruler's Back came close to capturing the feel of The Great Adventures, but The Art has a continually stunning set of stories and tales, and the presence of guest artists -- even rappers as talented as OutKast, Nas, Raekwon, and Snoop Dogg -- only emphasizes what a singular talent Rick is. The smooth production may be a little bit mired in contemporary rap clichés, but it's all enjoyable. Besides, Rick is about the lyrics, not the music, and he has written a stellar set of songs here, songs that are continually surprising and thought-provoking. It's a masterful set from one of the true lyrical masters of hip-hop.

Holy shit dude, that slick rick album was probably the first CD I remember buying as a kid. I think I was like 10 or so and my mom and I saw the "Street Talkin" video on tv and we immediately went out and i bought the CD. That brings back some crazy memories. I think my second CD that i remember buying was some Drag-On CD. I was a 10 year old gangster. I wish i could find that drag-on CD so i could post it up, it had some funny ass skits on it. Loved that CD tho, thanks for posting it cause i dont have it any more, just a d/l of street talkin.
