... industry respect may be deservedly wide-scale, the translation into anything approaching stellar sales has often been a stumbling block. Off The Books remains the pair's stone-cold killer cut, a track that simultaneously released a relative fledgling in the form of the late Big Punisher into the world of quick witted hip-hop while testifying to the ethic of casting a spell of magic proportions of a tasty loop over booty-shaking breaks. The hypnotic, almost hippy-sounding flute delicately shares space with aggressi...moreCustomer The Beatnuts in general Reviews (3)

Having been rather unceremoniously dumped by Loud, Psycho Les and JuJu reflect on their previous works and in turn remind their former employers how much of a bad decision this could prove on Classic Nuts. The epitome of party hip-hop while maintaining a rough outlook, anyone suggesting that the Beatnuts are finished won't have reckoned on this compilation of their most potent jam-starters. Five albums down the line and with a whole host of block-rockers in their armour spun from a conveyor belt of hypnotic loops that in any other environment might have gone haywire, the Nuts want to mess about as much as they don't want to be messed with, sort of ...

With not much publicity over hear in the U.K, and little to none radio play not many people over hear would have heard of The Beatnuts.

The Beatnuts They are great, i really love their tune's and i think that they are really good. Some people say that only their tune's are good, and the lyrics aren't really that good compared to other hiphop artists like, Ja Rule,Tupac,Notorious B.I.G, Dmx amd Ruff Ryders.

I can't really see what's not to like about them, but if you compare someone you should compare them with everything about the other person. One of my favourite Beatnuts songs is 'Watch out now' I think that is a class song and i reckon it should be played more ... Read the complete review
