Blue Schoalrs "Bayani" Album Review

Jbuc the latest ninja to join the team gives us this review of the New Blue Scholars Album "Bayani" and rates it four ninja stars out of five. Check it out below.

Geologic must be taking his daily intake of “beats rhymes and rice” as he claims on Bayani the Blue Scholars 2nd full-length and 3rd overall since 2004. That’s the only way to explain how the group can consistently keep the northwest ablaze with side projects yet keep the main product worth every penny of your 15 dollars. Although their motto is to blend the personal and political while partying in the process there aren’t any outright club bangers in the vein of “Motion-Movement” or “Blink” off of their self-titled debut. There aren’t any bad songs though either with quite a few standouts. Very political and Seattle-centric it’s more for a sunny day in Pike’s Place than a night out in Belltown.

Standout tracks: Fire for the people, Loyalty, Bayani

Misses: None
