Two decades after blowing up with Cypress Hill, B-Real is still going strong. On The Harvest, Vol. 1, the veteran MC shares the microphone with an extended crew of up-and-coming artists. Though they are pretty much complete unknowns, most of them impress with razor sharp flows and concise, streetwise lyricism. Three of them hail from Cali, but the majority represent distant locales from all around the globe, including Japan, Spain, Pakistan, Australia, France, Italy, Brazil, and the Netherlands. Production comes from the Audio Hustlaz, who cook up some truly nasty beats, full of nicely chopped samples and perpetually rugged drums. B-Real's trademark nasal steez still sounds great, and the young rappers all come correct. Highlights include "Ride Out" with Sikadime, "Streets Wanna Know" featuring Yama, and "We On It" starring the Lost Angels Crew. It's a rock solid mix from a true legend, and an excellent forum for twenty game-spitters on the come up.
