“In The Moment” marks the first full length album from Cali Bay-Area emcee Infamous TAZ, as well as the debut of a duo that flawlessly fits together like bread & butter, Pete Rock & CL Smooth, bacon & eggs, Dre & Snoop, pencil and paper, Primo and Gu’you get the idea. It works. TAZ (in his early 20s) challenges producer Headnodic (NOT in his early 20s) to twist and contort his golden era hip-hop beat style to meet the style and pocket of today’s young hungry emcee. The result is a refined, timeless, somewhat cinematic soundscape with a bounce and knock to satisfy discerning Hip-Hop heads of all persuasions. TAZ delivers the narrative with the Big Screen in mind. Each piece speaks visual volumes and spills into the next topic much the Way Ice Cube constructed Death Certificate (followed by Friday). The flow TAZ executes is fierce with precision and youthful energy, but peppered with the wisdom and soulfulness of someone beyond his years. “In the Moment” was crafted over the course of one eventful year in the life of Infamous TAZ & Headnodic. Pour yourself a drink, roll up something, put on your headphones and join them in that moment. It’s on track to be a classic.
