this album came out of nowhere! its been on constant rotation, all i can say is, i appreciate the effort by tha p. and i will always show support live or taped, whatever. if u buy this album u must go to a live show--theyre some of the best in the industry hands down--check the reviews, bonnano, coachella, a3c, whatever. anyway, solid album, and even though im uber biased, id have to say i doesnt top OST (dont think anything ever will), but to borrow from the previous review, yes, its more of a continuation of FUN DMC, and i think that was their intention when they put this together. they were definitely riding a vibe, a good vibe from a great couple years for them. fave trax, check the vibe, listen, creepshow, beer, 80 blocks from sliverlake, step off, trippin at the disco is definitely not your avg P track, and its fun to hear them step out of their boundaries and do a fun track.

7th Album - PUTS What can I say. I've been a fan since I first heard them 5 years ago. Over their entire catalog, the P does not disappoint. About a year after FUN DMC, Thes One surprised all of us on their official web board at [...] by telling us that they were dropping another album. In my opinion, this album is as good as anything else they've put out there.

If you like hip hop, and I mean hip hop like on Backspin on Sirius, then go get this album now!

Couldnt have been more glad to round off my PUTS discography. possibly the most fun the P has had on an album yet

OK, so when I heard FUN DMC I wasn't blown away. I thought Stepfather was incredible, and was kind of disappointed with the follow-up. However, when I heard PUTS put out yet another record, I straight ordered the vinyl and waited to hear it on the stereo.

All I can say is - wow. PUTS are not only at the top of their game, they are revolutionizing hip-hop in the most clandestine way. It's all in front of you pumping through the speakers, but lyrically it's whispering in your ear. I know OST is the token "classic" for these guys, but Carred Away is now my favorite because of the ground it breaks.

With this record PUTS takes into consideration two main things: 1) Their legacy, their ethic, and their ability to channel the funk until the end of time, and 2) The way our culture is changing, how the internet disrupts language and creates barriers, how present cultural trends are more fabricated than plastic breasts, and the subsequent importance PARTYING.

This is high art. But it's only high art in that it craddles you; it's music you can dance to, get drunk to, just straight have a good time and not care about anything. That is the central idea behind being Carried Away.
