Rennie of Sektion Kuchikäschtli
lies to us. As there's neither a Sitting Bull poster
in his room, nor was he ever kidnapped by the Fiat Lux
cult. But how come we are still hanging on his lips
like the little spit vacuum thingie at the dentist.
Why? Huh? Well, maybe because Sektion Kuchikäschtli
is good. How good? Well, let's say that we are used
to bonfires, and this is petrol poured over a candle.
And if we are used to walk on a gravel path, then this
leads us over scorching coal. Or if the punchlines of
other rappers hurt like a haematoma, then this is that
hard racing bicycle seat on that the one suffering from
hemorrhoids has to sit on. Good enough?

But let's take a quick
look back: the "Lampafiaber" EP was suffering from beats,
that were, well, just not so really. However, even back
then, Rennie showed that he can be to rhymes, what Einstein
was to physics. And if now on the album we get a bundle
of beats that we enjoy so much like a freerider does
fresh powder, it's obvious, that hip hop used to be
K Mart doughnuts, and this here is a still warm Krispy
Kreme glazed one.

Okay, okay, all this
praising needs to be supported by facts. The Swiss however
share the opinion that Rennie is simply the best Emcee
in Switzerland at this moment, and it's due to their
votes that he won the Best Emcee category of the Most
Awards 2001. And with Stimpee Kutz Rennie has a competent
man behind him, who on first impression though, is holding
back, keeping himself in the background. But already
the second listen, will make you aware of the great
scratches, as well as of two of the best beats, that
Kutz added to this album ("Kuchikäschtlihiphop"
and "Coming Out").
And speaking of beats, Claud the one to complete this
trio, is providing the majority of the rhythm (and amongst
them the phat "Klartext"),
and his offerings come relaxed, thoroughly good and
with enough thump and kicks to be excellent, like in
the case of "Stohbliiba".
Also to mention is the crafty and jazzy "Raimlischiaber"
(produced by J. Bauer) or the bouncy tracks "Toni
Lonoce" (produced by Manh Nguye) and "Gaschtreferat"
(produced by M.A.R.C.).

And so the necessity
of speaking on the beats, that are without an exception
all making us happy, is taken care of, hence we can
progress to talk about the lyrics. And Rennie understands
to speak on various topics, and with that also to include
various stylings in his lyrics. Meaning that we are
not just getting lettuce, but a salad, with the beats
being the delicious house dressing. So Rennie is giving
us a tale of mistaken identity on "Dr
Falschi", on "Nöchschta
Track" he's tickling us with a secret, while
he talks on his intimate relationship with Rap on "Coming
Out". Humor is taken care of on "Swissdate"
[a Swiss dating show], where Toni Lonoce and Sulaya,
as well as Rennie try to impress the chick that may
pick between the three. Further there's the commenting
tracks "Stohbliiba",
"Kuchikäschtlihiphop"
and "Klartext",
as there is the God discussing "Monolog". But what is
also served to us, are cuts that feature bragging and
boasting, like on "Stimmgabla",
"Raimlischiaber",
"Ächta
Rap" and "Gschlächstsstyle",
and once having heard these tracks, we think that if
Rennie ever wears a crown, it shouldn't be in his mouth,
but on his head.

Yes, this album is the
MKII in the mass of Sanyo electronics, it's the malaria
vaccination before travelling to Afrika, it's the bark
beetle in the bad rap forest. And we don't lie.
