Count Bass D & Insight - Risk Takers

Post by ebonight »

I know there are some Count Bass D and Insight fans and this was rumored to be on the way a year or so ago, but no definitive date was ever put out. This one really snuck under the radar.

01. Which One
02. War
03. In Charge
04. Risk Taker
05. Not My Style
06. Sight Boom Blam
07. Snakes
08. King Of Life
09. Seem Phoney
10. Seize The Moment
11. Dinner Is Served (feat. Dagha)
12. Be Rocking It (feat. Pacewon)
13. Break Suckas
14. Second Ambush
15. Leverage Of Combat (feat Kool Keith)
16. Which One Remix

A few of the tracks:

Album is dope and is on sale for $8.99 at amazon (mp3s only)

This won't appeal to everyone but if you're a fan of both, cop it immediately. It's exactly the kind of album you'd expect the two of them to come up with, except even better.

Insight's always been one of those artists who people's tastes that I respect seem to enjoy that I've just never had a chance to get into. Where's the best place to start with him?

I think these are his two best projects, although I don't think I've heard everything. But these two are fully self produced and are loaded with great tracks.

You've never heard Insight? He was on Mr. Lif's I Phantom and Edan's The Beauty and Beat. The Blast Radius is a dope album.

Had no idea this was coming out, will buy.

another dope insight album is "soloplexus" which is a 6-man group where every member is insight doing a different voice.

Damn, I never knew he did a whole album like that! Gonna have to check that out too. This is the joint:

Also, let us not forget about Y Society, which is Insight and Damu the Fudgemunk. I know they were getting a lot of praise over here not too long ago.

The newest Shinsight Trio album Somewhere Beyond The Moon that came out last year is pretty good too.

I don't know man the Count sounds kind of weird over these types of beats to me. It's like he's a little too laid back for the intensity of Insight and the music. Still cool though.

Bought this last night, listened to it like 2.5 times today. There isn't much of a conceptual range as far as the lyrics go, but the beats and rhymes are sick and Count Bass D and Insight make a good duo. Their voices and styles are very different but they complement one another.

Last time I checked, everyone here thought Damu was a third-rate Pete Rock biter. Y Society is crazy good though.

Pretty sure I'm the only one who dissented from the Damu love fest.

Listen to your second rate current favorites with pride, I do.
