Stic Man's "The Workout" is the greatest hip hop concept album ever. I beleive this so much that I had to make a blog about it...


Saying Stic man's "The WorkOut" is the greatest Hip Hop concept album ever is a very bold statement......some of the best Hip Hop concept albums consist of the likes of Ice Cube's Death Certificate, BDP's Edutainment, Prince Paul's Prince Of Theives and MF Doom's Mmm..Food. I'll take a fan favorite like "Death Certificate" and explain why "The workout" is levels ahead of that album. Not to compare the two like that it's more about the issues that are addressed. While Cube made an album which was a great reflection of inner city Black struggle in the early 90's which addressed topics that are still relevant today. The Workout tackles "human issues" that surpass race, sex and financial status. This is an album every human can relate to. The album addresses a very universal human problem and its solution; Health. In my opinion Stic Man deserves some sort of award for dedicating his art to the people in such a manner. This is altruism at its finest. Lyrically Stic Man has always had the gift to where his words were so on point that u forget he's lyrically nice. This works due to the fact Stic Man words comes off like a coach pushing an athlete. Production wise, this album isnt set up like how a normal Hip Hop album would be. You dont realise the science behind the beats until u actually play the album while excercising. While you are in the middle of your excercising and u feel a bit of doubt the music takes on the form of a movie score and you are the star and the star of movies always endures to the end so if u ever find yourself at that point while excercising the question of wether or not u quit or keep going becomes defined as the music plays ion the background. The following is a breakdown behind ever track:

I loved it. One of those joints you just push play and let ride. It still gets a lot burn from me on the ipod. Nice piece of hiphop. :thumbsup:
