Techo Shaw

Techo Shaw, an MC with a voice as booming as the enthusiastic rhymes he spits, gets in where he fits in with this club-ready joint. Whether for the hardline 808 bass drop on the ode to ladies' shoeware ("Stilletos") or the flirty, sexy flow of "Press Replay," almost all of the tracks...

Techo Shaw, an MC with a voice as booming as the enthusiastic rhymes he spits, gets in where he fits in with this club-ready joint. Whether for the hardline 808 bass drop on the ode to ladies' shoeware ("Stilletos") or the flirty, sexy flow of "Press Replay," almost all of the tracks demand high volume. While Techo's rhymes are a bit simplistic, rarely straying far from the normal "Hey, baby, what's your phone number"-style lines, the bass in his voice makes the record not only listenable, but downright entertaining. The final track, "Keys to the City," is one of the album's strongest and comes as a pointed reward for the listener.
