Blue Funk!! I loved this album to death.

Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2018

Verified Purchase

Blue Funk officially has to be my favorite album that'll change my life forever. His first three works (Living Large, Big Tyme and Peaceful Journey) was all about getting down and closely comfortable with the ladies a.k.a. females. That's how he's known for as 'The Overweight Lover'. On Blue Funk album, gone were the New Jack Swing mode along with the light-colored suits and works with Teddy Riley. And so, here comes the rough, rugged and RAW from a list of producers Tony Dofat (Who's the Man, Truthful and Who's in the House), Skeff Anselm (Talk Is Cheap), Steely & Clevie (Girl), DJ Premier (Here Comes the Heavster and Yes Y'all), Pete Rock (It's a New Day, Love Sexy and the title track Blue Funk) and last but not least Jesse "3rd Eye" West (Slow Down, Silky and the track's finale: the posse cut A Buncha N***gas). I was in 2nd grade when this album came out and Heavy was on his own two feet to get something off of his chest - The heavy music for the streets. Heavy D went back to the streets when he was being criticized for being "too soft" because of his focus on the ladies (Think about Big Daddy Kane). Blue Funk album was THAT kind of album which all of sudden an answer to the critics and the haters that talking about him behind their backs. Heavy wasn't going out until he went out with a bang for this album. 1993 in Hip-Hop was the rough, rugged and hardcore year for East Coast (like BCC, Wu-Tang, Onyx) while the West Coast enjoy their gangsta ride like Dr. Dre and Snoop. Heavy was 26 at that time when he put his Blue Funk album out on time. It was originally released in 1992, however the date is January 12th, 1993 was the official release date. Also, Blue Funk marks the official debut cameo appearance of Notorious B.I.G. (formerly as B.I.G. or Biggie Smalls). B.I.G. was humbly hungry at that time before he put out his debut Ready To Die in 1994 a year later.

Soul Groove

Great Boom-Bap From The Heavster and Crew

Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2008

Verified Purchase

I do not have any other albums by this hip-hop crew besides this 1992 trunk thumper and their follow-up Nuttin' But Love (1994). I am aware that Heavy D and the group make a lotta songs for the honeys with smooth production to back them up. I gotta say this bangs. It has a neat mix of smooth jams for the honeys and some raw, heated joints. We have some heavy weight producers here such as Premier, Pete Rock (two of my favorites), and Tony Dofat, and Jesse West. They produce a wonderful array of bass heavy boom bap. Heavy D really rips the tracks with his butta flow. A raw joint is "Talk Is Cheap" where he rips hard into cats talkin' ish with an aggressive flow and tone. He does have moments of bragadoccio on "Who's In The House" over jazz-horn laced Dofat banger beat. Pete Rock laces a mad heavy, jazzy atmosphere in the slick "Love Sexy." This jam is cool to cruise to while flossin' in ya whip. TRhe beat is among some of Pete's finer works, and that says a lot knowing his discog. Pete Rock does it again in the stripped down drum heavy "It's A New Day," where D and the Boyz touch on the day to day life in the hood. "A Buncha N-----" is a phat, raw posse cut with Busta Rhymes, Notorious BIG (his verse is killer here, listen to him flow), Guru from Gangstarr, 3rd Eye, and Rob-O. They all flex their battle skills and flows. Blue Funk shows a side of the group in that they can be versatile and discuss issues about life and the cycle of violence in the hood without (glorifying it). Anyone sleeping on them because they mae love/sex joints should not. This is a fine golden era classic from NYC.

Last Call

R.I.P. Heavy D

Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2020

Verified Purchase

Not bad. Don't expect the radio hits like he did on Peaceful Journey. I would even say this seems more underground. This is the only cd you actually hear Heavy D say a cuss word. People will debate and might not consider that word he uses is a cuss word, still suprise to hear Heavy say it. The great B.I.G and Guru make and appearances on it. Which is where you hear that cuss word being used the most. As for the rest of the tracks, solid.

The best offering from Heavy D & The Boyz (4.5 Stars)

Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2007

The formula changed for the better when "Blue Funk" was released in 1992. Heavy D comes with a shrewd awareness of the ghetto and the struggles of his own life. Frankly, he simply comes "harder" than ever before. For the most part, the past template for The Boyz has been completely pulverized. This album is much different than his other R&B flavored pop-rap outings, and is highly notable for Heavy D's most conscious and emotional set of lyrics to date.

This is honestly one of my most played hip-hop albums. I own it on cassette, CD & Vinyl. The high caliber of quality is astounding. Besides the vast change in attitude and lyrical content, Heavy D signed on some legendary producers to make this album shine, including Tony Dofat, DJ Premier, and his cousin Pete Rock. Every track hits with pure sophistication. The hit single and album opener "Truthful" is one of the few throwbacks to the The Boyz' previous formula. The beat, hook and chorus are straight addictive and starts the album off on the right foot. The mood changes after that with the Steve Miller Band sampled glory of "Who's The Man" - the first sign of a welcomed change in formula. "Talk Is Cheap" keeps right on hitting with ease. Then comes the reason I had to dock the album a half a star - "Girl". This would be the only other throwback to their previous style with more of a reggae-dance-hall flavored tune. It's forgivable after hearing the next cut, and perhaps the best track on the album. "It's a New Day" combines stellar production from Pete Rock and equally chilling lyrics from Heavy D about the struggles of living in the ghetto. "Love Sexy" is probably my favorite tune here. The lush production from newcomer Jesse West is just magical, with amazing hooks and lyrics to match. "A Buncha Niggas" is an excellent posse cut featuring Biggie Smalls, Busta Rhymes, Guru, Rob-O & Third Eye.

Overall, this is not the album that fans of the early Heavy D & The Boyz would expect. Despite it's dip in commercial status among their other work, it's critical acclaim has left it to be a highly underrated classic. Those that felt that Heavy D was a little too R&B for their taste, should find this album to be a real diamond in the ruff.
