Advantages: Gets your toe tapping Disadvantages: Jazz AND Abba? Will you have any street cred left?
I think it's fair to say that even the most ardent Abba fan could never claim that the band is, was, or will be, cool. But what the Swedish supergroup did manage was to create some incredibly catchy, and suprisingly technical, music, with Benny and Bjorn realising early on that success was more of a possibility if they left the fronting of the band to the less photogenically challenged Agnetha and the other one. And so the copycat cover version was spawned. Copycat beget television tribute show, and tribute show beget hugely popular stage show. What all of these dopplegangers had in common was that, in the end, they were all the same. The same songs, done the same way, but worse than originally.
And then came NilsLandgren and his FunkUnit. Landgren is a stunningly good jazz musician and normally has at least one 'cover' on each ...
Advantages: Consistent quality Disadvantages: Little variation
?The Lords Of The Underground came out with their second album, ?Keepers of the Funk? in 1994, and as their name suggest, the New Jersey trio (consisting of members DoItAll, Mr. Funke, DJ Lord Jazz) are a underground rap group, and with this record they were really able to take their names into the mainstream.

2. ?Ready Or Not?
They jump straight into it on this one as they show what this album has to offer from the get-go with a tune which references what they came with on their debut, and comments on how exactly they hope to take things forward on this one. It is a fly one, and I felt that it was pretty representative of their music.
**Four Stars**
3. ?Tic Toc?
From the title alone, most Hip Hoppers should associate it with MC Ricky D?s classic words on ?La Di Da Di?, and this is just what you get for the hook ...
Advantages: Performances, Social Realism Disadvantages: May be too shocking for some
Aside from being a film second in the history book for the most occurrences of the word "fuck", Nil By Mouth is an incredibly powerful portrayal of director and writer Gary Oldman's experiences growing up on a London council estate.
Oldman's authentic (seemingly improvised) screenplay is exposed to full effect by Ray Winstone's powerful performance as the foul-mouthed, substance abusing husband, who beats and verbally abuses his pregnant wife (Kathy Burke, who is also very impressive in her role).
But aside from being just a pointless exercise in violent filmmaking, Nil By Mouth explores the deeper issues of poverty and one man's inability to convey his feelings, and how these have an effect upon the family lifestyle. The film is admirable as it exposes the emotional vulnerability beneath Ray?s physical behaviour, but does so in such ...
