Additional personnel: Dave Matthews Band. As one of hip-hop's most unique and charismatic contemporary crews, Jurassic 5 have been laying down positive lyrics with true-school influenced rhyme schemes since they first appeared on the original LYRICIST LOUNGE compilation. Album three is more of the same from the tight-knit quintet of MCs, but that's certainly no complaint. With solid production from DJ Numark, Salaam Remi, and Scott Storch, the J5 prove themselves to be the masters of feel-good, backpack rap. While some hip-hop purists may be quick to point out the crossover feel of this record (which includes two guest spots from Dave Matthews Band), Jurassic 5 manage to stay true to the original sound, making the off-beat collaborations work and putting down some of the most consistently clever flows of hip-hop's third decade. FEEDBACK also includes a few departure tracks like "Brown Girl," the crew's fresh spin on crunk, and the Latin guitar-laced instrumental "Canto De Ossanha." minimize
