Another solid album from a legend

Ace returns with the follow-up to the 2001 classic Disposable Arts, A Long Hot Summer. Plot-wise, Long Hot is actually the prequel to Disposable and tells how he ended up in jail in the first place. This is a sharp, witty underground release that sees Ace rapping at his best and the production, handled by mid-level names like 9th Wonder, Khrysis, Croatia and Dug Infinite, is just barely a cut below that of Disposable. The best cuts are Good Ol' Love, Da Grind, Beautiful and Do It Man, although I strongly recommend this concept album be heard in its entirety. This record was lost a bit in the shuffle of what was a great year for hip hop releases in 2004, but its a great addition to Ace's already stellar catalogue. This one is probably not for fans of pop hooks and candy beats.

Searching for my Brooklyn Masala

I bought Disposible Arts with out know who masta ace was. As soon as i got done with listening to it, i came and grabed a long hot summer. I have never replayed a cd more. after and after i was addicted to the story throughout the disc. Each track has a beat and lyrics that fit so ryhmicaly. Masta Ace sets this disc up like DA as a story.Stand out tracks for me where, Good Ol Love, Beautiful, Brooklyn Masala( great story about this chick), Travelocity with punch&words, The Ways. Take a risk and check masta ace out.
