Review by Alex Henderson
Although Dj Magic Mike's CDs were placed in the rap bins, the main reason to acquire Bass Bowl isn't the rapping -- it is Mike's skills that as a mixmaster/producer that take center stage on this good-to-excellent CD. "Get On It Dog Gone it" and "Mo Booty" are infectious examples of fast, hyper, southern-style booty rap, but many of the tunes contain no rapping at all -- rather, they consist of instrumental tracks combined with various samples, soundbites, cuts, or scratches. Mike is fairly unpredictable, and he keeps things interesting by sampling and mixing a variety of soul, hip-hop, and funk, as well as reggae and jazz. Read More
