THE GENUINE ARTICLE is a powerful hip-hop document that arrives with no small amount of socio-cultural baggage. Not only is Remedy a white, Jewish rapper from a well-off family, but in a juxtaposition reminiscent of the Dre-Eminem connection, he's sponsored by the Wu-Tang crew. Despite some sonic similarities to the Wu-Tang clan (virtually unavoidable considering the participation of RZA, Inspectah Deck, and Cappadonna), Remedy is his own man. He doesn't go in for Eminem-style trailer-trash shock tactics or "hey-I'm-a-white-guy" Beastie Boy-isms. Instead, his raps are low-key, intelligent, and highly political. The tune "Calm But Deadly" gives the best clue to Remedy's approach. Instead of attempting to dazzle with high-speed linguistic nonsense, he presents carefully crafted lyrics that broach a number of complex topics. Not the least of these topics is Remedy's own cultural identity. When the last time you heard a hip-hop tune (and an effective one at that) about Jews surviving the Holocaust? Look no further for THE GENUINE ARTICLE.
