Dissed by The Source

Getting dissed by The Source for repetitive lyricism is like The Enquirer accusing the Star of tabloid journalism. For a magazine that sustains itself by perpetuating the dumbing down of hip-hop into hooks, chants and casio keyboard beats, its a tough pill to swallow. Maybe Conan Milne(whoe wrote the review) would like us better if we had lyrics like "lets kick it like TyBo" and "Smack that ass till you get sore." Or maybe we should do something like "this is why i'm hot, this is why i'm hot, this is why i'm this is why i'm this is why i'm hot." maybe then it wouldn't be too repetitive. The only encouraging thing is that we got a ton of calls and email saying "F**k The Source they're full of s**t". But everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I guess it means that we truly have a unique sound if Conan Milne from The Source doesn't get it. Read on:

"Respected live performers like Stetsasonic and The Roots, coupled with use of live instrumentation by many notable producers, suggests there's great potential for the Hip-Hop band. On that note, 40 Watt Hype returns to deliver instrument-laden sounds on its uneven third studio album, "Strong Feet on the Concrete." Tracks like the rap critical "Controversy" prove that the group's MCs can rhyme.
Sadly the verbal muscle isn't flexed enough throughout the rest of the 16 cut collection. Twanging guitar pluck make the title track a funky affair, although is is hindered by the redundant chant "just let go/Lose control." "Animated World" starts promising, only to descend into "One time for the bass" chit chat. With this album, the eight piece outfit proves that impressive drum or guitar work can't always compensate for repetitive lyricism. While the group has talent, 40 Watt Hype is a rap band not quite ready for prime time. -Conan Milne"

Thats tough to take for a dude named Conan. The fact that he doesn't get it is a reaffirmation that we're doing the right thing, thanks Conan......
