Ghetto Gramma

简介:  Produced Ghetto Gramma collection is geared to Bounty Killer's root Jamaican dancehall audience, even though the operatic "My Xperience" had given him a name in U.S. hip-hop circles. That translates to heavy patois, a hard-edged vocal delivery, and minimal drums-and-keyboard-sounds arrangements often lacking usual reggae reference points like bass melodies."Ancient Day Killing" is a more "normal" track with keyboard bass and rhythm skank and occasional horns, but the patois and sheer volume of Bounty's vocal flow make it impossible to tell if it's a cautionary take on the Wild West gunslinger theme. More typical is the impenetrable start to "Convince" -- the lack of a melodic hook reduces the music to beats and sound/noise and leaves you at the mercy of patois limbo.
