Review for album: As a member of one of the groups (Brand Nubian) most strongly influenced by the 5% Nation of Islam, Lord Jamar’s solo debut permeates the 5% teaching (including the biographical tale of Clarence Smith-the founder of the 5% movement) in such a thorough, yet unobtrusive manner, that listeners will come away with a deeper understanding of the culture that so many other legendary artists are apart of. With the Wu being one of the largest 5% collectives, it shouldn’t come as surprise that they appear on one third of this album. As on the classic Wu albums, Papa Wu’s knowledge is emblematic of what this project represents: “It’s crazy man, all this nonsense…I can’t even listen to my radio set. I can’t even let my sons listen to the radio set no more…nobody adding on.” However, Lord Jamar aims to show that at least a small number are looking to preserve and move the game forward.
With “Young Gods”, Lord Jamar shows that the 5 % percent culture isn’t just a reflection of golden age artists or a handful of current artists, but that it will continue to be a Hip-Hop staple for years to come. Letting the next generation speak for themselves, the sons of Gza, O.D.B. and Lord Jamar carry the torches that their respective fathers have been blazing for years.
Lord Jamar echoes this movement on “Advance the Game” where he rhymes, “Lets advance the game. How many times can we rhyme about cars and chains…How many murders can you do on album. Add them all up, must have done about a thousand.” In addition to seeing a need to advance the Hip-Hop game, he calls for the need for social reform. Riding the beautiful piano fueled “The Corner”( Throwback), Brand Nubian’s Grand Puba and Lord Jamar unite for a song of encouragement and a hopeful need for change.
From well thought out, engaging lyrics provided over tracks reminiscent to what listeners would find on classic Grand Nubian and Wu-Tang records, Lord Jamar offers a debut the continues the 5% legacy, sheds insight on the culture, while creating one the strongest lyrical efforts to come out so far this year.
