<![CDATA[
Blackalicious, the Northern California duo of
rapper Gift of Gab and DJ/producer Chief Xcel, return with their fifth
album, The Craft, today. The pair see the work as a culmination of
their nearly two-decade career as one of hip-hop's longest-lasting producer
and MC outfits.
"When we first started, our models were groups like
Kool G Rap and Polo and De La Soul and, later, Gangstarr," says Xcel. "Those
groups formed the blueprint of what we thought a dope group should be."

It's impossible to deny the niche that Blackalicious -- a.k.a. Chief Xcel and the Gift of Gab -- carved out of the hip-hop underground beginning with 1995's Melodica EP, following up with the acclaimed Nia (2000), and reaching its apex with 2002's lush, melodic, forward-thinking Blazing Arrow.

Artist: Blackalicious
Album: Blazing Arrow
Review: Bay-area hip-hop duo Blackalicious put the "granola" in G-funk. On their major-label debut, lyricist the Gift of Gab and DJ-producer Chief Xcel sling together an organic blend of almost baroquely convoluted yet very juicy grooves.
