Bayani

Albums like this are the reasons why I'll never give up on real hip-hop. Today's over-crowded market of clone Rappers and their reliance on image and gimmicks its so refreshing to hear a Group that goes beyond that and stands on its own with no guest Producers or Lyricists...Imagine that.

Here's an album that speaks on current and relevant issues without preaching. Geologic's flow is relentless yet calm accompanied by Sabzi's Production which is unique and matches the content in each track. This is an album your going to play top to bottom, over and over.

Also note they have another album and a EP, both great.

This album is absolutely amazing. I love their style and message and their beats are great. If you haven't heard the blue scholars then frankly, you are missing out. Once you listen to their soulful beats and insightful rhymes, you will never look at hip-hop the same. I must admit that i am from Seattle so there is some bias in this, but if your a fan of underground hip-hop then I highly recommend that you buy this album!

Such a good album. This stuff is real hip hop, with real flow, real beats, and a real meaning. Blue scholars own the hip hop scene in Seattle and are taking it in the right direction.

During this time of watered down hip hop and ring tone albums, Blue Scholars "Bayani" is definitely a breath of fresh air. People, this is what hip hop is supposed to sound like. Tight production, strong lyrics, and great beats make this my favorite album in the last couple of years. If you love hip hop then you need to cop this. If you don't love this then your either 15 years old or you aren't a true hip hop head. Just pop this cd in and let it ride, you don't need to hit the skip button. GREAT EFFORT!

Intelligent words and incredibly well construct beats make this in my opinion the best Blue Scholars album to date. Worth adding to your collection, especially if you're getting tired of the type of hiphop that makes it to the radio. This' definitely worth listening to. Can't really name a favorite track, each is a unique experience, even if the subject matter is a familiar one to these two artists.
