Nappy Roots
Album : The Humdinger
Release Date : August 5, 2008

review :
Nappy Roots will release their fifth album, The Humdinger, on August 16th. This time around, the Kentucky hip-hoppers worked with a slew of producers : Sol Messiah (TLC, Dead Prez), Rick Rock (Jay-Z, Fabolous), Mr. DJ (OutKast) and Groove Chambers, who produced the group’s hit "Awnaw" off 2002’s Watermelon, Chicken & Gritz.
"I feel like hip-hop has noticed Nappy Roots and the realness we bring to the music," says B. Stille. "And that realness is on The Humdinger."

All six members — B. Stille, Skinny DeVille, Big V, Fish Scales, R Prophet and Ron Clutch — shape the group’s trademark blend of uptempo beats and down-home lyrical flow. "The Nappy Roots sound is six parts : one-sixth street, one-sixth conscious, one-sixth club, one-sixth booty-shaking, one sixth ’it is what it is,’ and one-sixth backpacker," says DeVille. "We’re in a lane on a highway that’s not heavily traveled on. The South ain’t all just hard gangsta rap and crunk. It is as vast and as deep as the ocean, and I love it."

Nappy Roots debuted "Rewind," the album’s club-friendly first single, in New York late last month. The track — a plea to a DJ to replay a song — shows off the group’s sunnier side. "Everything isn’t going to be positive, because we deal with real life," Skinny says. "But you can still get off a good record without mentioning the words ’gun,’ ’bitch’ or ’gang of diamonds.’"

"I got a BITCH to wear my diamonds" is a direct quote from "Swerve and lean" and "rewind" is not on The Humdinger that is set to release August 5, 2008. It just goes to show you that people who write reviews don’t do much research or don’t even know what they are reviewing.

You are using a article from 2005. The album is coming the 5th, wont be featuring Rewind, and the group now has 5 members.

The track listing and title are otherwise correct.
