This is Michael Mixerr. At this present time of day, I will review Original B - World of Fools. World of Fools was released in 1996 on cassette only. All the inlay cover artwork was done by himself. Original B is a rapper from Cleveland, Ohio. Nothing much has been heard about him since 1996.
Hoochie Mama’s is dealing with the social problems and social concerns of women degrading themselves. All dem project hoes. These women that live in public housing projects such as HUD. Women who are on public assistance and welfare living in lower income areas. The ghetto of course.
XTC is about the dangers of the drug ecstasy. Ecstasy is a very dangerous drug that makes people very horny and perverted. Fools aren’t acting right when they’re on ecstasy.
The bass is real deep, dark, and brooding on the World of Fools track. Listen to the very beginning of the track. The mood is very brooding on the World of Fools track so you know shit’s about to get real deep! Really deep.
Original B tells his story. Original B grew up in church with a religious background like every black child. Then he started acting wild. He had girl after girl laying naked next to him. Now he hung with fools puffing on ecstasy. Now he is in the drug game. Currently he’s a rapper and storyteller. Hell is where Original B dwells. Original B is trying to find his place in this world of fools hence the title of the track.
This cassette was like no other album or EP that was coming straight out of the Ohio rap scene particularly the city of Cleveland. Brooding moods with deep dark heavy bass give out Esham’s acid rap vibe. Original B is a great storyteller in his own right and way. Too bad Original B never got his break.
I rate this cassette, World of Fools, 5/5*****!
