UNK - Beat Yo Block Down















UNK

Beat Yo Block Down
(Koch/Shock Records)
3 Stars

Unk makes Crunk and Crunk sure isn't home listening music, it's music for riding cars and stripclubs. Unk would probably disagree with the first half of this statement and say his music is more then just Crunk or Snap Music. But most artists have a certain pretense or preciousness about their art form, and I don't eat deep fried chicken wings, so what the hell do I know?
Unk sprung up this year in the US with a song called “Walk it out” which is basically a hot dance number, Crunk is more or less about dancing, cutting loose and having fun. Thats why the music and lyrics are so simple and repetitive. A lot of people miss these points, but for fans of Little John and Dem Franchise Boys this could be a great cd to bang in your ride while heading to the club.
Chicken wings not included!
