| | Review: | It has been a while since we heard anything that the Gospel
Gangstaz (Camp 8) added to the game. "The Flood"
definitely shows their experience as rap artists and shows
to the listener that they know what is up when it comes to
rap music.
The album starts out with "What it do," and I love the
vibe this song puts out. It's kind of a crunk-ish west
coast party song. If anyone has been fiending for some new
Gospel Gangstaz music, this song does not let you down.
Another highlight on the album is "Back then" featuring
K-nine. I heard this song on the K-nine mixtape a while
back when it wasn't complete, Solo still had a few bars to
add and the mix wasn't up to par. This song is tight. It
brings back the classic r&b singer the 2g's always had on
their hooks. The flows are quite scientific on this
track.
One last song I would like to point out is "City Lights,"
which seems to be a flashback to "Testimony." It's a
good song. Solo spits pretty sick on all the tracks. I was
kinda disappointed that Tikk Tokk seemed sub par on this
project.
Other hits from this album include "My life," "My
G'z," "Raise up, roll out," and "Only Jesus Can Save
Us." The production on the album is very mainstream
sounding, comparable to their previous album "The Exodus."
I have a hard time just riding through the whole CD like I
could with their others, but this album definitely quenches
thirst for some stellar production from some Original G's
who know "What it do" in the rap game.
Production: 9
Lyrics: 7
Flow: 9
Overall: 8 of 10

| Review: | A good rap album has good, catchy hooks, tight production
and clever lyrics. Picture that album in your head, minus
the catchy hooks and you find "The Flood."
I would still recommend buying it if you are a Camp 8 fan,
but don't expect a classic. | | source: unknown, added: May 19, 2006 | |
| Review: | Gospel Gangstaz Get Ready for New Release. - H2O Records
have signed a label deal with Alliant Music Group. On August
8, 2006, H2O Records will release their first album with
Alliant Music Group, The Flood, recorded by the Gospel
Gangstaz.
Over the past 10 years, the Gospel Gangstaz have earned the
position as the forerunners of the holy hip-hop movement.
During this time, they have released four albums, and have
been nominated for 3 Stellar Awards and 3 Dove Awards. Their
first two albums, Gang Affiliated (1994) and Do Or Die
(1995) are both critically acclaimed projects. The third
album, I Can See Clearly Now (1999) was nominated for a
Grammy and in 2004 The Exodus was released.
“We don’t just wanna be rappers, we are about ministry and
the Father led us to do this. It’s all about reaching and
building the body. We want to do a lot more work with your
centers, ever establish our own youth centers, and make a
difference,” says Solo, one of the Gospel Gangstaz.
Coupled with their ability to combine street savvy and
moving lyrics, the Gospel Gangstaz share touching
testimonials rooted in their love for Christ, which has won
them the respect of both the gospel and hip-hop communities. | | source: neworldmusic.net, added: Jul 11, 2006 | |
