Description
Soulchild pumps up the groove quotient on the already slammin' "19-2000" while the Wiseguys import plenty of harder beats and chanting choruses into the House Of Wisdom remix of the same song. Even the hit "Clint Eastwood" ends up refitted with a rapid-fire lyrical flow on the Phi Life Cypher Version. Elsewhere, Gorillaz monkey around with jangly synths throughout the ethereal "Faust," tabla-fueled rap on "The Sounder," and assay an esoteric, soulful mantra on "12D3." The nine cuts featured on G SIDES are a mere rest stop on Gorillaz's rambunctious ride into the maw of 21st century pop music.
