Slept on Album of 08': Bambu-…Exact Change...

From just looking at the album cover you know you’re in for something crucial. Like the barrel of the gun and the Machete suggest, Bambu isn’t here for shits and giggles.

Over a slew of soulfully charged tracks, Bambu serves the ears with a much needed plate of politically aware food for thought. In a time when self education is needed, Exact Change acts as the music for the street revolution.

Songs like “Spare Change”, “No Fuss”, and “Crooks and Rooks” bring the listener into a deeply personal setting with Bambu. Other notables “Like us” and “Seven Months” create a sense of family and close friendship for the listener. Exact change is more than just another Underground album, but more so the social commentary of every man trying to survive these days of change.

No matter where you're from, no matter your race, Bambu’s lyrics awake the dormant activist in you and force you to look at what’s happening around you. The album pulls you in with melodic sounds and keeps your attention with Bambu’s lyrical word play. Exact Change is Hip-Hop in its rawest form, full of moral tales and eye opening epiphanies.
