REVIEW PART 2

...Soulja also has a nice soothing rapping voice for songs like "Cassis". He slows down his hard rap to a smooth jazzy tone. It's also nice to hear a good mixture of Japanese/English where it's easy to understand. His pronunciation is clear and there's no getting confused with the english lyrics and trying to get what he's saying.

"LIBERTANGO(Pierrot)" shows some good composing skills. It mixes his smooth rapping with spanish strings and guitars. "Rain" is another piece where his rapping is nicely mixed with the piano. Compositionally, the repeating patterns of two pianos mixed with violins in the background really work out well.

Personally, I think he does well when he collaborates with female artists instead of hardcore rapping by himself. When he does rap by himself, I like when he tones it down. On this album, I didn't care for only 2 tracks which were when he was hardcore rapping.

I think he'd do extremely well in a group/duo with a female singer. It's rare to see duos made of one male and one female. I think it'd be extremely interesting to see this happen with Soulja and a good singer.

REVIEW PART 1

I was first introduced to Soulja through his collaboration with Thelma Aoyama in "Koko ni iru yo". The track is gorgeous and I highly recommend it to J-Pop listeners. If you liked Yuna Ito and Spontania's collaboration "Ima demo zutto", then you'll like this song.

Listening to his solo works in this album really surprised me. His rapping style is extremely different from the mainstream J-Rap ("Dogg Pound" and "First Contact"<-Too much hard rapping for me. ^^) I won't say his rapping style in these are bad, it's just outside of what I usually listen to.

Soulja has a deep voice and his "singing" is soothing (shown especially "Song for you"). Tracks like "ID" really mix his rap with his singing voice nicely... It takes some getting used to his rap style, but you eventually get drawn in. "Lotus" and "Sotsugyo" are a truly uplifting songs mixed with children singing. It feels like songs I'd hear at a Youth Christian Group and it really shows a different side to his music. It made me want to cry a bit. ^^
