Questionmark Asylum
The Album (1995) |84 MB|

Those who into The Pharcyde,The Fugess,ATCQ & the Heiroglyphics will enjoy this piece of classic material. Questionmark Asylum (Digge Doms, Eddie Black,Misstafiss,& Ding), the Washington DC based group, is one those groups who made a little noise in the industry but couldn’t for various reasons achieve much success. Like Dred Scott,Chino XL, Ras Kass and even now Royce DA 5″9′, Questionmark Asylum was forced into oblivion and one can only wonder what could have been.

The Album

Most of tunes on this release are pretty solid. They all got that early upbeat 90’s Hip Hop feel with a touch cool soulful stylings. A couple of notable joints are…

“Baby” is early 90’s joint produced by TLC’s producer Dallas Austin. TLC fans should recognize his style on this song.

“Love,Peace & Soul” is a go-go style song. Surprisingly I like it. I wasn’t into the Washington DC style music back in the day but this joint contains the right amount of soul and funk. The tune features Funk/soul/Go-Go legend Chuck Brown.

“Sweatin Me” is very reminiscent of Souls of Mischief’s classic song “93 Til Infinity”. A nice tune to throw into a 90’s Hip Hop mix….add it to your crates dee jays.

“Get With You-I’d Rather Be with You” is a remake of the classic 70’s song “I’d Rather Be With You” by Bootsy’s Rubber Band. This joint is basically a less profanity laced version of NWA’s “I’d Rather F*ck With You”.

The lesser joint on this LP is “Sex On The Brain”. It isn’t terrible but it’s not to my liking. One minor problem with this LP is it doesn’t contain the remix to “Hey Lookaway”. A tune every serious Hip Hop lover should have in their collection. The version on the album features Blackgirl, a female singing group with little success in the 90’s. The remix is way better. The song was remixed by EPMD’s Erick Sermon…an unbelievable cool joint. I uploaded the remix to EastofLa.com for you to hear and download.
