It wasn't going to be any sort of revolution. It's kind of corny; it's awkward but pleasant and always positive. Socially aware, nostalgic of the possibility of intelligent discourse (not that Rap hasn't got some very intelligent and innovative musicians in its scores- bravado and offense is a cheap commodity, available in North Jersey by the ton, whereas aural acumen is always at premium) Digable Planets' Reachin' (a new refutation of time and space) has it. Herbie Hancock, Karl Marx, Sam Kenison, Abortion, Abduction, Sesame Street and Marijuana. 10,000 Stars
