After building a cult following with years of underground dues paying and non-stop touring with the Roots, human orchestra Rahzel emerges with the blistering solo showcase, Make The Music 2000.
A top-tier beatboxer, he also takes things several steps further by creating a masterful melange of sound effects. Whether imitating a car, computer, drum machine, or another rapper's voice, Rahzel successfully incorporates his wide array of aural treats into the 17-song set. Even with his sonic abilities, Rahzel proves a capable rapper on cuts such as "All I Know," "Carbon Copy (I Can't Stop)," and "Suga Sista." When guests such as Slick Rick ("Night Riders") and Erykah Badu ("Southern Girl") handle the vocals, Rahzel slips to the background to drive the instrumentation, which remains tight throughout.
Keeping the overall lyrical focus on lighthearted braggadocio, Rahzel triumphantly reintroduces the lost art of beatboxing with Make The Music 2000.
