funkyhomosapien on "Stepfather"

funkyhomosapien — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 00:06:27 +0000

Just had a smoking session and finished it off with the 2nd half of Stepfather. This records so underrated, took me ages to appreciate it.

I'm hearing new things and just caught a reference to erule "listen up check it, erules about to wreck it". Another great record.

Just sayin'

Ryan on "Where can I get the Next Step/Stepfather on vinyl?"

I just celebrated my birthday... too much birthday! My sister gave me a MasterCard gift card. I don't have The Next Step or Stepfather on vinyl; does anyone know an online merchant where I might be able to pick new copies up (might be hard to get a new copy of The Next Step)?

Here's where I looked:
- PL70 site
- Amazon

I suppose I could look on EBay/Discogs but then I'd have to pay out of pocket. Any other ideas?

e.X.p on "Stepfather DVD"

I've seen Thes One and Double K's MPC's video and even the clips where Thes got the sample for "You" in South America. But I would like to see more clips, actually the whole DVD

My copy of Stepfather didn't have a dvd - The dvd edition weren't at the Best Buy

YoYoPo on "let's talk stepfather"

YoYoPo — Fri, 05 May 2006 17:54:45 +0000

been out about 3 weeks.. my interpretation of the title 'stepfather' is like, PUTS aren't the original fathers/founders of hip hop but they are there trying to fill the place. maybe put the young punks in order a bit. plus get the wife

but it's definitely a progression, I mean no rapping about record digging, or about being an emcee, or even any disses? A broader range of samples, maybe even the album is less hip hop, in that it's not a stereotypical drums and loops kinda format, it's just music, compositions.

plus More Than You Know and Days Like This show a more thoughtful side, maybe only previously done in Give Love A Chance ?

other things i'm feeling:

- the way Flex Off changes up halfway through (and the kinda 80s vibe skit afterwards)
- how jamboree pt 2 has that accurate party wind-down vibe complete with kk and thes drunk acting
- Some of the echos/reverbs (not down with the techinical lingo) effects are fresh
- the Brownout organ (?) and KK going "brrrrrrrrup!" and the outro
- the whole of the last 6 tracks. just amazing
- "I disagree homeboyboyboy"

yeah it is an album, they are counting it as an album thes said that - stepfather is their 5th because they're counting Or Stay Tuned as an album. Not a 'proper' album though nawmean? anyway according to you that makes stepfather the 6th

I have to say I think the album is great. Certainly the best this year so far. I'm probably a bit biased but this is a PUTS board so I'm bound to be, but I seriously think the album will be regarded as a classic.
The lyrics are varied and on point. The beats are superb from start to finish, even when they vary 'the P sound' a bit but the most impressive thing for me is how the whole thing flows from start to finish so well. The tracks melt into one another and its just incredible to sit back for 70 odd minutes and be transported.
And like Thes said, it needs to played LOUD! because only then do you hear the subtle touches and little samples hidden amongst the layers of production.

My favourite track changes every damn day. It was LA9X then Jamboree but now it's On & On and tomorrow it might be You! So many great tracks.

And maybe the sequencing of the 2 songs in question (Pass The 40 & Pumpin') at the beginning of the album was intended to get new fans at the listening posts of HMV's, Virgin, etc who buy albums based on the vibe of the first few tracks.

And anyone who says 'Pass The 40' is 'experimental' is mad. Its rhyming over a drum machine with ill cuts for chrissake! It doesn't get any more back to basic hip-hop than thatll!!!!!!
