Advantages: A few scarface film samples Disadvantages: Nearly the whole thing
track on a Wu Tang album from 95. Basic stuff here again, with the rhymes the main focus rather than the beats or a bit of both. No real chorus or gaps just a continual back and forth between the two. Not for me
Pusha Man - Joe Budden. Intimidating sounds here with the thought of dark streets and deals going down. Unfortunately the voice doesnt fir the production for me. Good beats but just missing something
White Lines (Dont Do It) - Grandmaster Flash & the furious five. Classic stuff from the 80s give the album a bit more a light hearted interval which is needed between all the harsh rap.
Money Power Respect - Lox, Lil Kim & DMX. Taken from Lox's first album, this was the best track from that album and one of the best here. Good use of strings, a lot of attitude and good rhymes from the whole lot.
A Bird In The Hand - Ice Cube ...
Advantages: Good background listening Disadvantages: Odd mixture of music on the Uplifting disc

12 Sibelius - 'Be Still My Soul'. This music was originally part of Sibelius's Finlandia, composed between 1899-1900. It was later adapted by the composer for use as a hymn tune, though in fact the words are much older than the music. They were written in the eighteenth century by Katherina von Schlegel. This particular recording is by Katherine Jenkins. I find it very calming.
13 Robbins - 'In Paradisum'. This piece won a competition run by Classic FM in 2007 to compose ...
Advantages: Plenty of Quality Tracks for your Money. Familar famous tracks alongside superb less known tracks. Disadvantages: Not really for those with short attention spans. Mixing between songs can be lengthy.
