it's easier. at least in my opinion [EOM - whatup y'all!?].

with having to keep up with people on facebook, trying to manage that reverbnation page [i haven't checked that one in a long time], keeping up with the myspace [updates and such] and NOW twitter? i'm sure i can speak for both Wax and I that we don't want y'all to think we are ignoring you. and i know y'all don't want us to hire cheap hot secretaries to manage our sites and what not. know what i'm saying?

it's not to say that we are going to abandon the myspace, reverbnation, facebook etc - it's more like...

it would be easier for us to talk to y'all and update y'all on everything we have coming up if you followed us on twitter AND kept up with Wax's new site

twitter.com/bigwax
twitter.com/EOM_
[i pretty sure herbalT doesn't have a twitter but we'll let you know when he does]

the new site:

waxdotcom.com [you are supoosed to pause after saying the first dotcom.

example: waxdotcom........ .com ]

hope y'all were feeling the new Relax video. we appreciate all the comments and we read all of them. we are working on the new album [Relax LP] and we have a bunch of music that we can't wait to share with y'all.

much respect and love, y'all!

peace

[sorry for the extra long link, myspace is being pretty lame about what type of links we can put up and this is only one that will work]

I don't know if you guys heard about that big Method Man Redman remix contest that myspace, illroots and friends are having. it's a pretty big deal.

we find out who wins the 27th and the winning mix will be up on the sites the 28th.

Let us know what you think.
Peace [and get ready for some more]

[also, are you guys able to download the songs off of Reverbnation? some people have been telling us they can't download the songs off of the myspace. if that's so, we'll add those songs to the reverbnation also.]

IMPORTANT: we need everyone's help. so this is great news about Rollingstone but wouldn't it be tight if they received a ton of comments on that note saying how they should give Liquid Courage a review? yes it would. if Rollingstone reviews it, we might do something crazy like release it for free or something. we haven't thought about it yet.

good luck in your comment endeavors.

""Yesterday, Rolling Stone received an e-mail press release informing us that the soundtrack to the Biggie Smalls biopic Notoriouswill be out on Bad Boy January 13th. We also received a package in themail from Bad Boy’s little-known and uh, fictional, Valley Village,California outpost from “Diddy,” who was promoting a disc from a groupcalled Wax & E.O.M. The handwritten note from “Sean ‘Puffy’ Combs”is as real as our new interviewwith George W., and truly amusing: It concludes, “Please listen to theenclosed CD. Also, enjoy the enclosed pack of gum and photo of myself,both of which are intended as bribes” (photo above). We’ve had artistscall up to ask us to review their work before, but a celebrityimpersonation is a first. Bravo, Diddy. Full letter after the jump:""

I really enjoyed this, yo. Well done. I definitely disagree with the critic twins and a couple of things I've heard around...

Firstly, the listen left an impression that I'll definitely be coming down, so that's a good thing. There's a clear line of focus with the production and lyricism that proves again how a one rapper/one producer project is the most reliably successful approach hip hop has seen.
The production on here is often brilliant, I feel, and it's never bad, which is great. Wax is also never bad, although there are songs that I think could be altogether scrapped because they don't necessarily fit the rest of it. Those would be You Ain't Shit Man, Tongue Tied and Last Resort, just because they detract from my absorption with the music. It's because of those that I felt like the album didn't hit its swing til What's Your Name, which is dope. Tongue Tied doesn't throw everything off, but it feels unnecessary. I know two of them are the album's most commercial joints, and I appreciate the attempt, but if the lyrics had more subtlety, I think they would blend better.

After that though, the whole album is straight zone for the rest of the way through to the truly excellent It's All Love, which might be my favorite joint on the whole thing. Or not, but it's definitely a contender. Either way, there's only like 3 or 4 albums I've heard all year that match that kind of consistency, and that's what impressed me most from two people who haven't made an album before.

And it does this while having very varied subject matter and production... parts of that Q-Tip album, which might be the most consistent of the year, were even starting to sound way too similar. Definitely not a problem this release suffers from.

Thank god the guest rappers don't flat out suck, although I dunno if I needed them to be on the Concerto joint. The one that feels like a proper posse cut, Ridiculous, works really well as that. The beat, by the way, works for me better here than on Ignorant Shit, even though I liked that mix too.

Because EOM's the one I know, and the one who I think did better work on this album, I'm gonna shout you out and say you kinda remind me of Stoupe in some ways, and then nothing like him in others. This is a good thing. You're a weird producer. There's a lot of those. But not all of them sound this consistently good, so, props. There's not a beat on here I don't like. Music and Liquor is particularly great. And all year, I dunno if I've heard anything as haunting as Larry & Tina.

That said, Wax is really talented, don't get me wrong. His voice doesn't bother me either. More than just having clever concepts, he clearly understands how to rap over a beat, and he has a lot of that magnetism that just makes you wanna listen to him rap. He's got that more than his featured friends, although D-Pryde does his thing on Air Timpani.

Air Timpani. Yeah, the robotic voice doesn't add anything, but I've heard far worse than that on proper studio albums, which this might as well be. 'Sides, that beat really is off the chain, or whatever it said. And by the time it happens, the album's mood and zone is far too impressed upon the listener (this one at least) to degrade the value. Even Last Resort, which doesn't really belong, doesn't really take me out of it. This is a really impressionable joint.

Really nicely done, yo... And EOM, I'm requesting that Canto instrumental joint sent to me. Nah, demanding it kinda.

As of now, I'd give this a 84/100 if I had to rate it.
