Nonchalant, an iLL femcee from Washington D.C. dropped "Until The Day" back in `96. Y`all should remember her from her hit single "5 O`Clock", speaking about Black~on~Black crime...anyways she`s got a smooth`D out, laid~back style of flow & she dropS some intelligent lyricS over some R&B~laced beatS on her first & only album. The album`s DoPe (my opinion of course), but I think it suffered sales~wise because a lot of folkS felt the beatS were too R&B minded & her socio~political lyricS came off as too preachy, kind of like what katS say about KRS-One. Regardless of it`s commercial success, the album itself is straight up solid; rhythmically, lyrically & musically (that`s a lot of lly`s:). Sure there`s a lot of R&B-drenched trackS, but they`re consistently appealing & Nonchalant`s lyrics & flow only help to add replay value to them jointS. Stand~out jointS; "5 O`Clock", "Crab Rappers" & "Lights `n` Sirens"...
