Richie Spice – Spice in Your Life Reviewed by Sadie O., 7/5/08 Roots rock reggae, current major star, rather mixed bag. He’s clearly got his heart in the right place, and most songs are on target although there are a few odd moments. Singing occasionally goes into some rather stoned falsetto. No FCCs detected. I like 9 and 15 best. 1. spoken intro – ladies and gentlemen, Richie Spice… 2. *mellow downtempo acoustic groove with nyahbinghi drumming, but oddly commercial element in the backing vocals. 3. spoken intro to next song 4. ***downbeat midtempo roots skank, black pride lyrics. 5. little kids tell what they want to grow up to be. Cute… 6. **mellow downtempo riddim, sweet song. 7. **midtempo upbeat skank, upful lyrics. 8. Long spoken intro to next song in THICK Jamaican patois. 9. ****midtempo skank with nyahbinghi drumming, violent times lyrics, good sound. 10. ***downtempo skank, strong instrumentation and backing vocals, interesting singing, hard times lyrics. 11. ***midtempo bubble, odd but memorable vocals. 12. “smooth jazz” sax, extremely slow acoustic riddim, upful lyrics. 13. ***upbeat bubble, overcome lyrics. 14. Sound effort of bong smoking 15. ****midtempo skank, making the interesting claim that smoking pot makes one smarter. Yep! 16. Downtempo acoustic nyahbinghi, unfortunately with more “smooth jazz” sax. Sweet, though. 17. *upbeat skank, love song. 18. *downtempo skank, summer song. Guest vocalists (one rather naughty bit), unusual piano style for reggae song. 19. ***midtempo skank with electronics, similar to an early Black Uhuru hit. 20. *slow skank, paeon to reggae. 21. Outro, like the intro. | ||
