The title of the interview was 'rather rhyme than talk'. In true 'insert weird sentence here', we are going to say: so let's talk about his rhymes then. By now you better have checked his mp3.com site (click here), cause there are some trusty treats waiting for you, waiting that you direct your mouse cursor to the download or listen link, so that you ears can be the medium to some sound provided journey through rhymes and beats. Or something like that. Or to put it into less eloquent words: get you ass over to the site, listen to them cuts, cause shit is dope.

Things start off with "Clever Endeavor" feat. fellow mp3.com'ers Tru Prophitz, this is some sophisticated braggadocios type something and you get the first piece of Regular Size Monster's rapid fire flow, when he goes "you've got a fundamental / fucked up mental / like a gun up to your temple / sayin, "that fucking Gentle cracker / rapping at a rapid tempo." / gassing / laughing / at my kinfolk / but I'll throw 13 stalactites / through your satellites / don't think of grabbing mic's / my rap appetite will paralyze you / like a stag in lights / if you ain't acting right / I'll take you out / just for bragging rights". And he spits that over a humble piano that's like a lunatic, that's just a little too calm, cause you know he's the jumping around in your face kinda guy. With a content and tame guitar, "Monster Mash" is still not protecting us from his venom, him going "don't get lost in my flow, / although I know its intricate / when I'm flipping script / without instruments. / Leave idiots / in a predicament / of of feeling ignorant / plus chicken shit / when I be rippin shit / omnipotent / magnificent / no one can mimic it / unlimited / innovative / uninhibited / super future-primitive / Plus I'm clever at / any endeavor / whatever / better than that feller / pulling levers / just to get / hella yellow cheddar / My style's Freebird / like Lynard Skynard / with food for thought / Hungryman dinners / to educate these simple sinners". And when the drums gets a little extra nasty at the end of this part, and when the choir shows up at the end of this cut, it will be the final straw that is breaking your doubting back. And we are only listening to the second cut, there's more to come.

The Monster has woken up, and you can hear it on "Gentle". Over a bubbling track, with a little voice sample, the Monster goes "see y'all don't know one iota / about how I fulfill my quota / all that cash your trying to hold, man, / you're just a sofa soldier / I'm more like a soul controller / sold my soul so I could flow / Allah holds the promise note / told me not to fool no folks / with any rhymes that I ever wrote / and all I ask would be given". This cut is also a good example of how Jones can use his voice, going through different tones to create a meaning, evident during the "snuck into your house caught you wearing / earrings and a dress / possessed by some perversity begging to be sodomized / So I soundlessly excavate your skull cavity / leave you lobotomized / the coward cries, tries to apologize but dies, DIES!".

Teaming up with CAP on "Hick Hop", this is spit to a bluesy background and a very shuffling and shacking drum. Quite rightful one of the most favorite cuts during shows. Another one of the many, thousands, millions of alias's is being put in front of the investigating light on "Pinky The Kid", that will have some of you go 'guitars? I'm not gonna fuck with that'. But after a while, the track gets a little wah wah thing going, which gives it a completely different structure than what you expected at first, and with a little industrial break, and Jones finally taking the mic over a menacing beat background, this track has already built so much intensity, it will have you bang your head against the wall.

But in order to prevent a headache, things are smoothed out with the highly fresh "Peer Pressure". A live instrumented improvised little organ intro takes us up to some higher spheres, it being the elevator. The lyrics are jumping through different topics, and the Monster doesn't hesitate to boast "my lyrics are literature". More of that literature can be heard on "The Firecracker", but the watchful eye has already noticed the name "Anthem Of The Champions" pop up on the track listing. DJ Qwerk hooked up an extra dope, space travelling track, with very stumbling drums, and Orion cluster organs, that just seem to be the perfect soundscapes for Jones to go "your unlawful lawlessness can't abolish my flawlessness, / say my arguments / before the parliament, / an unbiased bipartisan. "Let's immigrate and become Martian men, / and colonize / while Sodom dies / before the sodomites start again" and in case you ever wondered "some ask why they call me GENTLE, / it's simple / its like when you call a fat guy slim / or a tall guy shorty". And after such a banger, it's very hard for anything to prevent us from just skipping back, to listen to that track again. "Back And Forth" is succeeding though with very intriguing horns, while CAP shows up again, to lend his voice and rhymes to this track.

And that's what "@ is for @narchy" is. But enough talk now. You can buy this record at the Monsters site, and it's about time, cause we know, you rather listen than read.
