Cleveland based
Smooth Approach lives up to their name on
You Got It, their sophomore CD for Executive Hits Records. This 18-song collection makes good use of poly rhythms on uptempo tracks, as well as
Q-Nice -- C-town's hottest rapper. A stalking beat paints the scenario for "Are You Down For Me," which features a cameo from
Q-Nice. The first 10 cuts consist of upbeat, hip-hop tracks: "Push Em' Up," "Everybody On The Floor (Keep Dancing)," which samples "Good Times," by
Chic, and "Keep It Real," accented by Sky Boy's scathing rock guitar, are rump shaking delights.
