On some Uptown Ish!!!!!.......2006-05-13

Too bad this LP is out of print; 'cause it's dope. When I first got it... it was a head-nodder. Production from the Beatnuts, V.I.C. and guest spots from none other than MF Grimm and Casual. A solid LP through and through! If you have an opportunity to cop this CD, DO IT!!!

Classic Classic!
Very underated (I don't know why) but a great MC from the BOOM BAP era. Rhymes & beats are both ill. Find it & cherish it!

Anyone who samples that classic De La line is on point.

First time I heard Kurious was on the KMD track "Stop Smokin' That Sh*t" and I loved what I heard.
As frontman for the "Constipated Monkeys" crew, Kurious puts together a very good album. The Beatnuts handle the majority of the beats, so the production is dope, other production is by Prime Minister Pete Nice & The Stimulated Dummies.
Although he's quite an average MC, his presence and laid-back style fits the production and makes the album vibe really well. There's no real stand-out tracks, instead every song is really good, and a complete album you can listen to straight through is way better than an album of singles and filler.

Bottom Line: This album is so slept-on, every old-school head should own it. If you don't own it - wake up and cop it. 4 stars, Peace.

Heavy sh#t.......2005-04-02

This was so underrated. The production was classic and the track 'uptown sh#t' using the roy ayers sample was a really good use in sampling. The whole album has a classic feel to it and you would play in years to come still. Kurious was tight at rhyming with good skills. The only problem about this album is that it doesn't have one of my favourites on it 'mansion & a yacht' which was on a single that I to get elsewhere back then. But anyway, If you like the good sh#t and want another classic for your collection I recommend this strongly. Str8 through it's dope. Peace!

Manhattan Valley's finest.......2005-03-04

Oh man talk about a slept on album? Son, it should be a crime how slept on this album was, and still is, when it came out in '94! Not only did his album get slept on but Kurious then faded into obscurity. He showed up here n there, specially with MF DOOM, but ahhh man if you don't count this as one of the best hip hop debuts ever then it's a wrap! Kurious Jorge, a half Cuban, half Boricua mc from Manhattan Valley, the small Latin ghetto sandwhiched between Central Park and Upper West side. He first came out with some local NY hits like "Uptown Sh*t" and "Walk Like a duck." He was a top Latin mc before, waaaay before, the Latin hype. Ditto for producers in residence for this album The Beatnuts. their production has always been crazy but on Kurious's joint they just bananas! The opening cut "Spell it wit a J" listen to mthat track today, and damn if it aint better than anything out right now. This came out in '94 and I've been had it in my list with other 94 classics like "Illmatic" and "Hard to Earn." Sadly...Kurious never got his shine and the ol neighborhood is gentrifying quickly, they even re named "Rock Steady Park!!" aka Happy Warrior Playground! It'd be good if you like early 90's classic Ny hip hop to invest in this.
