Unique and Slammin'...but Not a Classic Wu-Banger Submitted on: 2009-03-19 |

The RZA is always original. His production sounds unlike anything else in the mainstream. But is that always good? I value original and unique music, but that which is original and/or unique is NOT always good.
I own every Bobby Digital album (because RZA is the man), but his joints are not in heavy rotation in my stereo. Like I said, each track is unique...but at what point will "unique" really mean "strange"?
I suppose that's the best way to describe RZA's works as Bobby Digital. Bobby's music is strange. I wanted to bang my head, but instead, I found myself wagging my head. RZA is a master...but a master of what?
RZA: I trust you; I'll buy your music until I'm walkin' with a cane. But please, stop releasing self-indulgent music.
Wu-Tang forever. Peace. |

| I've been a fan of RZA for as long as he's been in the business. But as one of his biggest fans I am obligated to be critical of him. This album is not one of his best efforts and his fans should know that. First of all he doesn't really spit on every track all the way through. His album is riddled with appearences which are not memorable but just annoying. I really only want to hear RZA or Wu-affiliates that have skill. Last but not least is the laziness of his rhymes which is unusual. Overall the beats are tight and because of that it's worth copping. It's just too bad the hidden track was the best one. |

"Digi Snacks" marks a significant change in RZA's style. It's quite a bit different than his other offerings as Bobby Digital. And anyone who's been following his recent Wu & non-Wu projects, knows he's up on the experimental tip as of late. With that said, "Digi Snacks" offers some incredible production on what may be his most cohesive Bobby Digital project yet. Where RZA was more "in your face" on his 1998 album, he is decidedly more laid back here. The production is dark & mysterious, as well as head-noddingly gorgeous. In short, this is a some classic RZA material.
While RZA doesn't come as aggressively visceral as he once did, his rhyming style is still very tight and alluring. I'm really digging his lyrical content too. To me, he's making all the right moves with this album. However, there is one track that I constantly skip, and it is a notable slip-up. "Straight Up The Block" featuring David Banner is pure trash in my opinion. Banner doesn't do anything but ruin this track, and his contributed production is actually fairly weak as well. It's a little disappointing considering this is the first single on the album, and it's the only wack joint on the CD. It's actually a deterrent for those that learn about new projects from the radio. Thankfully, that is the only real blemish on the entire album despite a couple semi-forgettable (though not bad) cuts. My top picks are "Long Time Coming", "You Can't Stop Me Now", "Try Ya Ya Ya", "Money Don't Own Me", "Creep", & "Drama". Highly recommended material. |

In RZA I Trust! Submitted on: 2008-07-27 |

| You either love him or hate him, but I for one believe and support his evolution as a musician and an artist. Some wish he would get back to the grittier more raw flavours of 93 - 97: ET36, OBFL, LS, Bob Digi in Stereo, etc. But all artists evolve and sometimes revert to an older style. I'm confident RZA will give his detracters what they've been craving. Back to Snacks - Its new, fresh, creative, and breakthrough. There's alot happening on every track and RZA may have changed the game by evolving hip-hop AGAIN. |
