Tanya Morgan is an emerging hip-hop group composed of 2 MCs and 1 MC/Producer. They have been receiving all types of critical acclaim in recent years. Their newest release Brooklynati is one of the most highly anticipated albums from an independent group this year. The album was impressive overall. The concept of the album was an imaginary city full of laid back hip-hop, called Brooklynati, which appears to be a cross between the two hometowns of each group member (Brooklyn and Cincinnati). Lyrics were on-point for this release and so was production. However, delivery was the only place where the group fell short. Each of the artists had their high and low points, but the lack of charisma made the album boring at times. The standout tracks were “Hardcore Gentleman”, “We’re Fly,” “On Our Way,” and “Never 2ndary”. I’m not sure what hardcore gentleman skit was all about when they were talking about a group having one successful single that they replay over and over 15 times for an entire concert. It sounded like they were taking a stab at Pharcyde. Still, this album was one of the best released this year, but not THE best, like most fans were expecting. Listen to it and tell me if you agree, but I give it a 4/5.
