Dont even think about skipping this joint right here. You sleep on this, then your a fool. I was blown away by this CD. Its just got that RAWNESS that makes you just want to break yo neck rocking out.

The duo of Cole “Seez Mics” Policy and Jason “t.E.C.K!” Fields are not actually from Washington DC or Baltimore – they call College Park, Maryland home – but their reputation as arguably the best hip-hop duo to come from the greater metropolitan area betwixt B-town and Dead City has been growing steadily since they first came together in 1999. Already under their belt are two LPs, Aisle 2 having garnered the most acclaim and getting them the attention that allowed Write/Hear to happen.
They’ve opened for Murs. They’ve been on a Warped Tour date. They’ve been hyping Write/Hear on their website for over two years. What took so long? Who cares. It’s finally here, and it’s better than you’re expecting, if you were expecting it at all: As the cover-art suggests, this album is built on old-skool beats and back-to-basics lyrical prowess the kind of which has been lamented so often as of late.
Write/Hear is a great album because it shows how necessary every point on the hip-hop spectrum is. I’m not going to lie and say that “This is Why I’m Hot” doesn’t have an incredible beat with mind-numbingly stupid lyrics, or say that Sage Francis doesn’t have a keen eye for exposing political turmoil… But Educated Consumers prove that you can have both, and neither, and still be good. That’s the magic of this album. It’s totally average and perfect for exactly that reason.
