 Vast-Flat*

| Disappointment after Cold Vein. The message and the music seemed disconnected and makes it impossible to flow. Vast Aire being an underground artist should understand that this genre is dependent on flow not just a flowing rap style but Flo...check out C-Ray Waltz, Ravipops, track Flo. I expected a much more substance in the lyrics and relevence to our plight are undergrounders. |

| Vast Aire has a different style then most other MCs out today. And the way that he flows combined with the beats makes this a great album. Songs like "Zenith" w/ Blueprint and "Posse Slash" w/ Karniege, Breez Evahflowin, Poison Pen & Aesop Rock really make this a one of a kind album. Other artists include S.A. Smash, MF Doom, Sadat X, Breezely Brewin, and Vordul of Cannibal Ox. Production wise this CD falls a little short in some songs, BUT the other songs make up for the weaker ones trust me. This CD probably has about 3 weak songs, the rest are all excellent and replayable. Overall I am glad I picked up this CD and it is recommended to people who like Def. Jux, Weathermen, or any earlier Eastern Conference releases. |

first off let me start by saying that cold vein eas one of the most important Hiphop releases of this century El-ps sci fi beats
combined with vast aires gritty abstract poetry made for an album that will be rememberd for years to come. When i got this album I had high expectations for Vast I was looking forward to hearing some ill beats and maybe some more of his amazing poetic skills that he had displayed previously on The Cold Vein hey it even had a track produced by Madlib but appearances can be very deceiving. Vast spits some pretty weak lines on this release its almost like he regressed after his last album lyricly the beautiful poetic lines that we all loved from the cold vein have been replaced with filler lines and words that are there just to finish the song. The music doesnt help things either this style doesnt match vasts rhyme flow and even though the sounds are varied throughout the CD the production is boring and feels rushed I can understand a few weak tracks but this kind of lyrical and musical garbage is UNFATHOMABLE. |

The day "The Cold Vein" seeped into my memory was a glorious day. I am not sure a hip-hop album had ever struck me so immediately, and the brunt of this blow came from one Vast Aire.
I bought this album the day it came out, and to this day I give it the benefit of the doubt every now and again, but to no avail. This is simply a poor album from an exceptional artist.
At the time of its release, the scary possibility was that Vast was not consistently as wicked as he was on the landmark Def Jux release with Vordul Mega. At the time of this review, Vast has once again impressed (though certainly not nearly to the level of the immaculate Vein), with his Mighty-Mi collambo, "The Best Damn Rap Show".
I'm going to go a step further than the other reviewer here who said if you're a serious Can-O fan, then you should still pick up this album. Why? As of yet, I have not once listened to this album for the pleasure of it, simply to try to get into it. Though a few beats are decent, the flow is choppy and uninspired, the lyrics are overly-simplistic in both pattern and word choice, and Vast fails to match the ferociously apocalyptic delivery of his Cold Vein performance.
Mega? Vast? What's the deal! Can we get some "knock em' out the Ox"!? |

| I'm a huge Cannibal Ox fan, and I definitely felt that Vast was one of the strongest, only rivaled by Murs in my opinion, emcees at Defjux. I've seen him live twice and he's a tight performer. But this album is really bad, especially if you had high expectations from a rapper who rightfully instills such in his fans. I don't know what went wrong with the making of this solo album. Vast doesn't seem to be talking about anything except battling for 9/10 of the album. Vast's flow is still tight but his delivery seems lacking any feeling but bitterness that he's doing a solo effort instead of another Canox album. Weak tracks that seem thrown together in no particular order over mediocre production with little to no content earns this a 2 star deal. If you're a true Canox fan then I would still get this album, there are a few tracks and lines in it that are worth knowing if you want to see all he can offer. |
