DESCRIPTION : The title of this album gives away Kamoze's clear intention: to continue cashing in on the massive success of his 1994 single "Here Comes the Hotstepper" (the second line of which was "I am the lyrical gangster";). It may not have been as much of a commercial success, but with Lyrical Gangsta Kamoze does do an effective job of continuing to develop his uniquely aggressive reggae-hip-hop fusion.

On several tracks he seems to be trying just a bit too hard to prove his gangster bona fides: when he repeatedly drops the F-bomb on "Hole in Ya Head" it sounds forced and awkward, and "Kildatsoundboy," which is built on a highly effective adaptation of the "Ring the Alarm" rhythm, is just a bit over the top, lyrically speaking. But his duet performance with Guru (of Gang Starr fame) is a great juxtaposition of two very different rapping styles, and "King Selassie" is a surprisingly sincere and sweetly melodic example of rootswise dancehall. The remix of "Hot Steppa" and the dubwise "Imagine...In Dub" are also both well worth hearing.
