Dokument - Planet Dok
2005 looked to be another big year for the Tunnel Rats with
the announcement of the seven series. Every seven weeks we
were going to have a new seven song EP to sink our teeth
into. Unfortunately, things did not work out and in six
months we have only seen two EP’s. The one thing that has
kept fans going is the quality of the music that has been
released. First up was Macho who dropped an EP full of
heartfelt lyrics and one of the year’s best singles with
Passion. Next up is Dert’s roommate Dokument the heavyweight
from Texas.
At 7 songs you don’t have room for error and Dokument uses
every second of the EP to drop his lyrical fire. The EP
starts with The Foundation (Part II) that has Dokument
dropping his dope lyrics over an even doper beat by Jermz. A
great opener that has the emcee flowing effortlessly proving
he can bless a track by himself. The next track is a posse
cut that has everyone talking. Dok invites New Breed and
newcomer Triune to help him catch wreck over a bangin beat
by Theory Hazit. Dok, Elsie and Macho do some double time
rhyming and Triune is as laid back as always to make this a
must hear. Heavy-Wait is next up and Jermz delivers a track
that your neck will regret as it snaps out of place. Props,
Dok and Sojourn deliver the goods and make this a contender
for the EP’s dopest cut.
A basic backdrop that bangs harder then Dok stomping his
feet sets the tone for Warn You. Dokument, Macho and Sharlok
Poems deliver the goods with true lyricism over a beat that
bangs. The track is this reviewer’s favorite cut as it’s
that ol boom bap that you never get tired of. The last track
on the EP has Dok & Sev Statik tag teaming with Triune on
the chorus. Donavan Luke Henry delivers an epic beat that
compliments the emcee’s and proves to be a perfect closer.
Overall, this proves to be an above average EP from a newer
member of the Rats. The guest spots are all very good but
with only 7 songs it would have been nice to hear more of
Dokument. He is a talented emcee and would have been
interesting to see what he is capable of on his own. Other
then that not too much bad to say about this offering, it is
high quality beats and rhymes that Hip Hop is built on.
Dokument has carried the tradition of quality music with his
installment in the 7 series. He proves again why he was
chosen to be a Tunnel Rat and moves up the list of emcee’s
that you should keep your eyes and ears open for.
