Clean Windows Dirty Floors
Artist(s): Sirah (MC) DJ Hoppa (Producer/DJ) Styles: Hip-hop, poetry in motion, fun in some plastic wrap. Track Picks: "Stop With the Advice," "Class 103," "MC." Review: This being Sirah's first solo project leaves, "Clean Window's Dirty Floor's," as a defining body of work. It's wit's meets street's as this duo pairs up to bring you on an elaborate journey. Coupling experience and audacity, this is an album that you can openly blare in your car while submerged in rush hour traffic. Sirah's voice is very soothing, yet raw. As you refer back to the album cover you almost wonder if Milli Vanilli's men had something to do with this small pale girl rapping. In today's recent controversy over who is and who is not "Hip-Hop," this EP clearly defines what would fit under the notorious category; however, Sirah and Hoppa have put there own spin on things. A song off the EP entitled, "Addict," features Sirah's late father who was a rock and roll musician before and throughout her childhood. "Stop With the Advice," is a witty true to life account of the depth's of two worlds. The first portrays what its like to be a "white, female rapper" in today's day and age. While the second talks about underground hip-hop and how the "scene" perceives success. If your so quick to judge an album by it's cover, take my word and purchase the EP. You won't regret it.
