Millenium: INSOMNIAC MAGAZINE

The World’s Only Hip Hop Trade Publication
INSOMNIAC MAGAZINE
For Those Who Can’t Sleep On Hip Hop

Washington, DC has been known for many things throughout the years: corrupt politicians, crackhead mayors, out of control violence and the birth of Go Go music. D.C. really has never been known for its hip hop artists, until now. Meet Millenium, an 18 year old rapper who has seen a lot of things in his short life.

His flow is distinct and he paints vivid pictures with his rhymes and makes you feel his pain. This his debut album is definitely one of the premier albums of 2000. With songs like “How Far Will You Go,” I am convinced Millenium is the second coming of Kool G. Rap. The production work on this album is superior and (reminds me of Large Professor type tracks) compliment Millenium’s flow. One of the highlights of this album is the song “Fantasia” which is basically about creepin with your best friend’s lover. There are other jewels on this album, but one track I could have done without was “Gunpoint,” which incorporates a reggae feel. Overall it’s a slammin album.

What the deal??? You don't Know me but I just coped the new millennium Kaos Theory.

I write album reviews for a magazine based in Orlando but that is worldwide by the name of Insomniac Magazine. Well this album was g1iven to me to review . I was hesitant to try it out because it looked like some other shit. I was exactly right it was some other shit. Probably the best album I've gotten next to the new Black Moon and Black Star but that's besides the point. I just wanted you to pass on the message to Millenium saying that he's got a fan and there will be a dope record review waiting for him in next month's

Insomniac.

Thanks.

Millenimn: DJ Most Dangerous

After the long wait to hear my comments on Milleniums album I finally let you know what I think. After first receiving the CD I fell in love with how well organized and put together it was. The tracks stretch from Slow jam to Get up and party.
Personally I thought the first single released could have had better selections but it still had one of my favorites the Ga-mingh Technique which I still rock on my personal tapes.

Those who have checked out the radio show Know I feeling the second single including Fantasia and believe it was a perfect choice for the second single released. As my man RBI once said There are to many rumors going around about this cat. Which is true and I hope won't stop you firom purchasing the joint at a store near you. All I can say is don't believe what you hear until you get the facts. The album is off-the-hook in my opinion and I know I'm not the only one feeling this way.

Millenium: Washington City Paper

Publicity Contact: arufus@houseofabdul.com

Go for Broke

Eighteen-year-old MC Millenium's
manager and producer bet a
bundle because they believe
in his music. That makes
two of them.

The alley outside the Spy Club is still empty. Doors opened at 10 p.m., but as of 10:15, the crowd for the night's "hip-hop kulture" event has not yet arrived. Anticipating their arrival, Louis "Fahim" Smith patrols I Street NW with an armload of paper, strategically placing bright yellow posters on lampposts up and down the block. Fahim (Smith, he says, is his "government name") is co-owner of D.C.-based Ofphspringg Entertainment, a prospering local promotions company. He flacks for major rap acts such as Helter Skelter and the Cocoa Brovaz as well as for the hiphop magazines Double XXL and Rap Pages.
