Customer Reviews of Zingalamaduni
slept on... this - arrested development's second album - was largely overlooked, their debut '3 years...' kinda got played into the ground. nonetheless, if you like arrested development at all, this is by far the superior of their two studio efforts. you can usually order it used for like $1, at that price, its worth checking out.
A Brilliant Follow-Up!
I'll be the first to admit that Speech and Co. were well on their way to becoming ubiquitous around late '92-'93, but who could have guessed they would return in 1994 in such fine form? 'A Beehive Of Culture' is an apt description of this mature, finely crafted, and utterly joyful sophomore release. Before all the hoopla over using live instruments, these young people were spearheading the movement. You can actually hear Rasa Don's drumsticks clicking in the distance as he prepares to play on the albums intro "WMFW". "United Minds" moves with an almost balletic grace and sets the pace for the remainder of the album. The jazzy, breezy "Achin' For Acres" (great turntable scratching) bleeds right into the heavy footed funk of "United Front" which manages to be both uplifting and relaxing. The true jewel in the crown though is "Pride" a glowing sung/spoken word piece that features an African chant throughout that will dig it's way into your subconcious and remain there. Listen to the lyrics, and you will feel a sense of pride and confidence that will truly warm your heart. "Shell" is brilliant in it's simplicity, the mantra 'just a shell until you decide to rebel' is repeated over and over, on top of the same live drum pattern until you finally GET IT! The remainder of "Zingalamaduni" never falters, covering every facet of Black Life in this world, from racism in housing ("Mr. Landlord"), physical beauty ("Africa's Inside Me") pro-life activism ("Warm Sentiments") unity (the joyous "In The Sunshine") religion and servitude (the trumpet driven "Kneelin' At My Altar"), energetic partying and enjoying life while you can ("The Fountain Of Youth") and understanding your past to embrace the future ("Ease My Mind" and the closing spiritual "Praisin' U"). Sadly, this was AD's final studio album before infighting, jealousy and power struggles tore the group apart (ironic isn't it?), but it stands as a testament to one of the most influential and important hip-hop/soul bands of the 90's. It was a wonderful party, however short-lived. AD, you are missed and sorely needed.
