Reviews Customer Reviews for Wild Cowboys      The "Wild Cowboys" of Hip Hop      Rating:      Wild Cowboys is the debut album of hip hop luminary Sadat X. To this point, Sadat was a member of the influential Brand Nubian, whose entire discography is very strong. After the solo success of group leader Grand Puba, Sadat chose to break out on his own. Wild Cowboys is the first of several strong solo efforts on his part. Released in 1996, Wild Cowboys has a very loose, jazzy feel (not unlike much hip hop of that time. The production is very understated and relaxed, yet is very engaging. Pete Rock, Buckwild, Diamond D, Alamo, Showbiz, Da Beatminerz, and the underrated Minnesota all provide very chill jazzy tracks. If you know their work, you know what you're getting here-killer NY stuff. As for the rhyming, guest spots are kept mostly within the family, as Sadat brings in his boys (the cowboys(?)) on several tracks. Grand Puba, crooner DV Alias Khryst, and the severely slept-on Money Boss Players all have features as well. Smoka J was pretty accurate about how Sadat's boys don't add a lot to the tracks. For what they lack, Sadat more than makes up for with his highly skilled rhymes and active flow. He is on point all album. Standout tracks are "The Lump Lump", "Do It Again" (feat. DV), "Do It Again", "Game's Sober" (feat. Money Boss Players & Sha Sha), "Smokin on the Low" (ft. DV), and the Pete Rock produced "Escape From New York". The rest of the album is very strong too. The only track I couldn't get into was "The Funkiest". I've got no particular reason...just wanted feeling it. All in all, Wild Cowboys is an album worth purchase by fans of 90s hip hop, jazzy hip hop, or of any of the above artists. This album has been slept-on for years. It's time to get the word out.     Customer Reviews for Wild Cowboys Cd      As a whole it could be his best work...      Rating:      Loud records ran the street scene in the 90's. This Lp from Sadat takes me back. Every artist that ran with Loud was dope back then. It wasn't the lyrics necessarily, his lyrics are great but it was the beats that captured my feelings. It definetly fit the year, (which was 96' I believe) with its flawless lyrics from X and its production from one song to the next. Good stuff, without a doubt. Peace!
