Stanley Donwood has compared writing for Ultramagnetic MC’s’s new album to that on ‘Funk Your Head Up’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. I am not a real Rap: Hip-Hop music type of person, but i have to admit ‘Funk Your Head Up’ really is amazing. Since completing 1992’s ‘Introduction To The Funk’, Ultramagnetic MC’s fulfilled their contract with EMI Records and where under no obligation to release another album. This is the best album I have heard in a long time
I can’t stop playing Intro. This song is dynamic and dramatic. Go 4 Yourz is simply gorgeous. Blast From The Past - Check out that bassline! Music and lyrics of Funk Radio creates, for me, fertile ground for daydreaming. Message From The Boss is such a marvelous and optimistic song that things can get just better. Pluckin Cards has a beautifully haunting disco flavor. No Ultramagnetic MC’s song has come close to capturing my attention as Intermission did. This track is possibly the biggest guilty pleasure on Funk Your Head Up. I believe Dolly And The Rat Trap is one of the most exquisite, heartfelt songs ever written. The Old School is just simply stunning. Musically Bust The Facts is superior to other tracks in Funk Your Head Up. Murder And Homicide is a strong cut, one of many. You Ain’t Real is almost impossible to review. Make It Happen as well as many of songs is a short story in miniature. This song is very powerful, its catchy melody will have you singing along in no time. Bi-Lingual Teaching sets the tone for the entire album. After you’ve listened to Poppa Large, most everything else can’t hold up and is second rate. Moe Love On the 1 and 2 is a song to enjoy for years to come. Porno Star is amazing work of Ultramagnetic MC’s. The P.M.R.C. ID - This one has a powerful beat and a good melody. Ultramagnetic MC’s sings Chorus Line Pt. 2 in such a comforting, confident voice that you can’t help but be moved.
