Release Notes: ░██▓
██▒
Animal Farm, product of the hip-hop movement coming out of ██░
the Pacific Northwest, Portland in particular, are ██
undoubtedly interested in becoming as famous as the source ██
of their literary moniker. Animal Farm, the novel by George ██
Orwell, offered a critique of the Communist movement and the ██
events that culminated in World War II, albeit through a ██
thinly veiled allegory featuring farm animals as primary ██
characters. The group, however, pose questions just as ██
forceful and poignant as the book theyÆre named for in their ██
second album Culture Shock, although they mask nothing in ██
allegory and are as up front about their opinions on ██
contemporary hip-hop as an emcee is when trying to best a ██
competitor in a freestyle battle. ██
██
Animal FarmÆs Gen.Erik, Hanif Wondir, Fury, Serge Severe, ██
and DJ Wels donÆt pull any punches. Straightaway, one is ██
able to get a sense of their whole ethos, through cuts like ██
ôMusic For Idiotsö featuring Abstract Rude in which the crew ██
sing over the hook ôWe donÆt make music for idiots/Shots ██
from the heart so tell me if you feelin it/The radio, ██
whatever they playing yo/Video channels ainÆt even playing ██
no freakin videos.ö ██
██
A solid verse from Abstract Rude includes the relevant ██
question ôWhat would this world be if there were no more ██
conscious rap songs?ö Animal Farm seem ready to answer this ██
question on the succeeding song ôPop Music,ö a track with a ██
bouncy, lush background that the squad get their ôWhat They ██
Doö on with and sarcastically avow the aspects of their ██
coveted genre in which they disdain the most. Where ██
Snowball, Napoleon, and Co. fail because of their egos, the ██
guys of this centuryÆs Animal Farm recognize the lure of the ██
celebrity ID and address it. FuryÆs opening bars exemplify ██
the grind of the independent artist and the tempting ██
benefits of mainstream appreciation: ôChilling in Lincoln ██
Park, counting some Black Crows/Drinking on Brandy and ██
washing it down with Sisqo/Thinking on how to get on top, ██
this game yo/ Feeling Led Zeppelin weight and less promising ██
than Skid Row.ö ██
██
Crafty lyricism exemplifies this release by the guys from ██
Portland, with the infectious zeal for hip-hop thatÆs as ██
instantly apparent and possessive of endurance as true as ██
that of another famous Oregonian, runner Steve Prefontaine. ██
The Talib Kweli-assisted ôTest of Timeö is an album ██
highlight and is packed with a sample laden, horn-heavy, ██
solid beat that is indicative of the groupÆs sound. Other ██
guests include Rob Swift and DJ Wicked. The groupÆs ██
insistence that there be a variety of opportunities for hip ██
hop artists in various media venues is notable but certainly ██
echoes the concerns of many a rapper before them, making ██
their observations less potent. Although more variety in ██
beat-type would make this effort more refreshing, the group ██
appears to hold a place in hip-hopÆs future although unlike ██
their nameÆs conceiver, they have a less dystopian, more ██
hopeful view of the coming days for the genre despite their ██
criticisms. ██
