The Soul Rebels - "Rebelution" (Barn Burner, 2005) * * * * 1/2
This is a group you're going to hear a lot about in the next year or two, because there are only a handful of groups out there with the balls to put out an ingenious album like "Rebelution". Blending hip hop with funk and jazz traditions, The Soul Rebels have created an album that is so creative it's off the charts! Complete with a full horn section, including trumpets and a tuba, this six man ensemble blazes their way through addictive gems like the latin-infused "Work It Out". And "It's High Time", which features Wordsworth and Rasheed on the mic, has serious potential to finally bring creative rap back onto the airwaves. Here's to hoping these guys keep on making "music by any means necessary", because the music world needs them.
