Album Description

On his debut album, singer/songwriter Brooke fuses Snoop Dogg-worthy grooves with killer pop melodies and razor-sharp lyricism for the kind of sound that could have only come from a guy who speaks of Prince, the Beastie Boys and the Beatles with equal reverence. The fact that Brooke is able to put a masters degree in psychology to work for himself while singing about getting busy in the back of a pickup truck behind a Circle K only makes the recipe that much tastier.

Customer Reviews:

hmm... Good but nothing too groundbreaking.......2004-08-24

This is a very solid album, and I will not discount the quality of a lot of the songs and the intelligence of some of the lyrics. The title track (and I think, the single) "Coming Home" is the track that sticks out the most to me, though I have difficulty saying that this album has a "hip hop" feel to it, given that that feeling seems to be strictly for the reason that it sounds like the songs have strictly drum machine loops instead of a "real" drummer. There isn't much else that's "hip hop" about it, but that's not what I was looking for in the album, so it wasn't a "dissappointment" for me.

The only dissappointment that I had was because this wasn't as "groundbreaking" as other reviews had lauded it to be and the dissappointment stopped at that. Aside from not being "groundbreaking" this was a solid effort, especially from a first album, and it was well worth the $6 I paid for it to get it used here, so for $6 of your hard earned money, I would have to say RUN OUT AND BUY IT!!! It'll make a nice addition to any collection, and most likely, you'll be the only person on your block to have it, so all your friends can jealously ask "Who is that you are playing in you Stereo?"

Wow.......2004-04-24

This band is sooo so good. I highly reccomend it. This band has so much potential, so incredibly good. Its got a feel good groove going that has a nice rock twist, with meaningful lyrics.

a white boy with mad beats!.......2003-09-11

i usually only listen to hip hop but this white boy has it goin on! he's got some mad flava to them beats, yo! i say let this sista roll and i will show ya what it really feels like to get "funkdafied"! no whut i'm sayin?

a man named Brooke.......2003-08-17

There is something about a man named Brooke or maybe it's his cool version of that classic song "Time After Time". Whatever it is, it made me fall in love with this CD. He's got some great pop songs. I don't even know what my favorite song on the CD is because it constantly changes. It could be "Camera" today then "Here I Go" the next. I just love em all!
