Critics and fans alike were puzzled as to why ██ the group was seemingly rejecting what had been hailed as ██ the future of hip-hop, and neither the reviews nor the ██ charts were kind to the album. It isn't that De La tries to ██ remake their sound here ù Dead keeps the skit-heavy ██ structure of the debut, and the surreal tone and inventive ██ sampling techniques are still very much in evidence. But, ██ despite a few lighthearted moments ("Bitties in the BK ██ Lounge," the disco-flavored "A Roller Skating Jam Named ██ æSaturdays'"), a distinct note of bitterness has crept into ██ De La's once-sunny outlook. On the one hand, they're willing ██ to take on more serious subject matter; two of the album's ██ most powerful moments are the unsettling incest tale "Millie ██ Pulled a Pistol on Santa" and Posdnuos' drug-addiction ██ chronicle "My Brother's a Basehead," both true-life ██ occurrences. Yet other tracks betray a brittle, insular ██ state of mind; one running skit features a group of street ██ thugs who ultimately throw the album in the trash for not ██ having enough pimps, guns, or curse words. There are vicious ██ parodies of hip-house and hardcore rap, and the single "Ring ██ Ring Ring (Ha Ha Hey)" complains about being harassed into ██ listening to lousy demo tapes. Plus, the negativity of the ██ bizarre, half-sung "Johnny's Dead" and the hostile narrator ██ on "Who Do U Worship?" seemingly comes out of nowhere. Dead ██ is clearly the product of a group staggering under the ██ weight of expectations, yet even if it's less cohesive and ██ engaging, it's still often fascinating in spite of its ██ flaws.s ██ ██ ██ http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:nr2ibkj96akb ██ ~T1 ██ ██ ██ ▓██ ▓██ ▒██ ░██ ░██ · ▒ ██ ▓ ██▓▄▄ ░ ▄ ▄▄ ▄███▓▒░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░▒▓█▓ ▓ █▀ ░▒ █ ▓ We Have NO Public IRC ░ █ ▒ channel and offer no ░ ██▒ ░ files.
