Billboard CD reviews: RZA, Los Lonely Boys (Reuters)
Reuters - Wu-Tang Clan mastermind RZA returns for a third time to his Bobby Digital alter-ego, his new rhymes ranging from pseudo-standard gangsta cliches to a dizzying mash-up of pop-culture references (Jabba the Hutt, mogwai and Hunt's Ketchup all get name-checked in a matter of 10 seconds) to bizarre boasts ("When I was young/I slept with a battery under my tongue/so when I spit/the impact with a sting of a stun gun"). But it's the beats and production that really define an RZA release, and they're as intoxicating as ever on "Digi Snacks." Bass lines and obscure samples lunge in and out of slithering, off-kilter rhythms, illustrating the virtuosity of this one-of-a-kind rap artist.
