On The Rocks - Wailing Souls

Advantages: Bangers throughout
Disadvantages: Nothing specific

..."Mecca And The Soul Brother" was the debut album from Pete Rock & CL Smooth. The New York producer/MC combination (taking from the likes of Eric B. & Rakim, Kool G Rap & DJ Polo and Gang Starr) has the duo perform lots of classic Jazz and Soul-influenced Hip Hop to contrast from other conflicting Hip hop movements which were in effect around this time. 1.

...This review is about the mobile phone I used to have. The phone itself is called the Samsung Soul and is a phone which has been around now for a year. Made by a big brand in Samsung you do expect a phone which has fantastic features and to last a very long time. So I will now discuss the parts of the phone in order to give you the readers some sort of idea about what the phone is capable of doing and what it does well. The phone design ----------------------- Well my phone is black which looks stylish and sexy, and is a slider phone. The backing of the phone has this silver backing which covers the sim card and battery and is quite solid. On the front of the phone you have the touch pad and the screen which is quite obvious in some respects. The charger connection is on the left hand side and is hidden by this little bit...
