"It will make you cleverer, maybe even a better lover. Not many novels can do that" (Nicholas Lezard)
Not many novels indeed. Unless Mensa publish an updated intellectuals version of the Kama Sutra possibly.
'Immortality' and Kundera deserve all the mighty praise that is heaped upon them. From previous reviews you might already know I am a big fan of this author's work. I think his style is unique and poignantly beautiful, and I have not come across an inch of text of his so far that was not worth reading over and over. And so much of it is acutely funny in a really unobvious way. This offering dwells less on politics than some of his other works.

Advantages: Revived Classic Tracks - Mixed by the Best DJ's In The Business Disadvantages: The Fact I Can Never Get My Hands On Gatecrasher Tickets!

Advantages: Incredible lyricist Disadvantages: a couple of turkey beats (sort of)
Immortal Technique is one of the greatest Mcees I have ever heard. He has an incredible talent of flow and rhyme construction and his content is easily understandable an highly intelligent. He is consistantly on strongly themed songs with relevant content. He can be very controversial- but generally only to "prove a point". If I could compare him to anyone (and thi will sound strange!!) it would be Eminem - due to both having very strong content and controversy. However Immortal Technique is a lot more "honest" than Em. His controversy is usually related to specific politcal or social issues and in the same breath he will display a deep understanding of them. He has also resisted signing major record deals, preffering to retain his control over content.
His storytelling as shown on "Dance with the devil" is also top notch. He is expert ...
