5 out of 5 stars dope as f%$k.......2005-11-28

this is better than hip hop your going to get in the us, and it isnt even their first language, clearly puts most American MC's to SHAME. I also believe this is their best cd, but thats my opinion. You can listen from the first song to the last song, they are all fire. dope beats + dope lyrics = dope lp.

5 out of 5 stars Classic.......2004-12-22

Up until a few days ago I had only heard of Looptroop but had never got the chance to actually hear any of their stuff. Then I heard Modern Day City Symphony and I was absolutely amazed.

These Swedish MC's are rapping here in their second language and put 90% of the mainly English speaking rappers to shame. Awesome lyrics, flows and voices. This album is completely 100% DOPE!

A lot of the subject matter is concerned with graffiti, so if you are into quality Hip Hop and Aerosol Art (even if you aren't) you MUST buy this album!

5 out of 5 stars Makes me proud to be a Swede.......2003-09-26

I would put these guys up with krs-one. They both make great beats and music, but you listen to the lyrics, there is actually a strong meaning behind it. In fact on these lines looptroop might have the upper hand. Their new album, not listed on amazon yet, its just as good. I can't wait to get it! Check them out at http://www.looptroop.nu

5 out of 5 stars Underground from Sweden that puts most US MC's to shame..........2001-08-19

...of course there are exceptions... of course in america we are truly blessed with the most original and widely most talented... but along come loop troop. from the moment i heard their cut "4 Elements" on a compilation called "Return of the B-Boy" I knew that these cats would be getting some airplay on my hip hop radio show. WPRK 91.5 fm Rollins College. This crew is amazing. The rhymes are original and tight, the delivery is amazing. They go off in english 99% of the time on this release. it's amazing-they flow better in english, their second language, than most us mcs do in their own language. This is one truly dope LP. Look for the ep's from these guys, BUY the vinyl or CD, and cop some live cuts in mp3 format floating around out there. DON'T SLEEP ON THIS CREW! -DJ Levi

4 out of 5 stars Underground music goes public.......2001-07-09

Well, what can I say? LoopTroop's the finest of the Swedish underground hip hop scene. Already a classic piece of Swedish hip hop history, this CD surely makes you wanna see them live. With rhymes that speak of freemindedness and revolution from the system, combined with dark and heavy beats, LoopTroop can't be dismissed. The group has performed on clubs and jams all over Sweden, and built up a reputation outside the country as well. On this CD Freestyle from the Arsonists and Sweden's Timbuktu, among others, are featured on some of the tracks. If you're only to buy one Swedish hip hop album, this is the one, as long as you're not into the Swedish language. If so, you've got plenty of lyricists and great battler's still to explore...
