Deltron 3030

Deltron 3030 is a futuristic hip hop album set in the year 3030 with the main character being Deltron Zero, a disillusioned mech solider and computer prodigy. He has fallen from the blinding lies of the New World Order and their suppression of human rights and hip hop. This album was released in 2000 by Deltron 3030 which is composed of Dan the Automater, Del the Funky Homosapien, and Dj Kid Koala. The album follows Deltron Zero as he goes through a series of rap battles against different opponents to become Galactic Rhyme Federation Champion.

 This album while from 12 years ago just makes me stop and think about what happened to Hip-Hop? Where did the lyrical flows go, the djs scratching opera tunes in the back ground and throwing down sick beats? What happened to having a purpose to conveying a point in the lyrics of a song and a album that has a whole story in it, an album that takes you into the world that is being portrayed and brings you all the feelings with it? Hip Hop at least mainstream hip hop has lost it's way from what made hip hop so beautiful with the way the song could have a rhyme and a reason. Listening to albums likes this ones and old school hip hop artist can bring you back to a different time in music when it wasn't all about getting bitches and money but telling a story to a club packed with people. One song that really is interesting on the album is Time Keeps on Slippin which has Damon Albarn featured in it. Some of you may know him or you may not, but he is the lead singer of the Gorillaz. And some have said that this song helped lead to the creation of the Gorillaz first album. Especially with Del The Funky Homosapien featuring on the Clint Eastwood track. The futuristic sound and mixing of hip hop and audio clips and blending from many different genres, it is easy to see some of the influence that Damon got from working on the Deltron album. Here is the youtube video for the music so you can listen.

Well that is all for now and hope you find this music ringing in your ears for the next couple of days. If you are interested in getting the album you can try and find it on the pirate bay, or you can support and show love and get the album here. Much love all.
