Black Sheep "Flavor Of The Month" (The Source, 7/91)



"Along with DJ and incredibly talented Mista Lawnge, Dres busts out with fat rhymes on tracks. The Black Sheep should literally be viewed as the black sheep of the family - the Native Tongue family that is is (consisting of De La, Quest, The Jungle Brothers, Queen Latifah, etc). You won't find any dreadlocks here. The Black Sheep have more of a street approach combined with an image that makes them look like a pair of GQ cover boys ... "Flavor Of The Month" has a catchy mid-tempo beat (with a vicious kick) and an eerie bassline acceded by quick guitar samples, while the chorus hooks the ear with funky horns. The Black Sheep's multi-layered tracks are unique and progressive yet they definitely have the underground feel. Mista Lawnge's production abilities and Dres' smoothness-personified rhyme style make the Black Sheep something to keep an eye on in '91." - The Source, 7/91.
