Toronto experimental jazz trio BADBADNOTGOOD's fanciful fusion of hip-hop rhythms and improvisational jazz spits in the face of ridiculous notions of genre on their latest LP, 'III'. Their third album comprises nine complex and nuanced, genre-defying escapades - a series of varied and elaborate aural tapestries that strike the right balance of mood and melody, whether it's subtly menacing ('Can't Leave The Night') or sensual and sexy ('Confessions')...

Jazzy Hip-Hop Recently, a friend of mine who moved to Germany gave me a whole bunch of jazz and classical vinyl LPs and CDs. Rather than ship them to Germany, or put them into storage, she wanted them to be played and enjoyed, so she gave them to me. I got my hands on a ton of classic jazz from Dave Brubeck, Billie Holiday, Charles Mingus, Duke Ellington and more...

Three jazz students from Toronto were shot down by a panel of their instructors for their performance of Lemonade by Gucci Mane, but then earned the attention of Tyler, the Creator for their arrangements of Odd Future tracks. It sounds almost like the plot to a bad Teen Nick movie. But Badbadnotgood's star-studded tale doesn't end there...

Technically, III is Toronto hip-hop jazz trio BADBADNOTGOOD's third album, but it's their first that's been offered for sale rather than simply posted for free on the internet. Their earlier releases were both strong, but they seem like playful experiments compared to III's self-assurance. Resisting the temptation to make their commercial debut too pristine, they recorded instead to reel-to-reel tape, keeping that raw, live feel that initially garnered them so much attention...

Head here to submit your own review of this album. I'm not an expert when it comes to jazz, and I won't pretend to be either. Having said that, BADBADNOTGOOD managed to catch my attention in 2011 with their contemporary jazz renditions of popular hip-hop tracks - specifically Odd Future - who at the time, were everywhere. The mixtape, BBNG, also featured works from Nas and A Tribe Called Quest...

Hip-hop's links with jazz reach back to Gil Scott-Heron and The Last Poets, but does jazz love hip-hop back? Badbadnotgood certainly do: the instrumental trio scored work with Frank Ocean, Tyler, The Creator and RZA after their Odd Future cover during a performance exam at jazz college failed to wow the assembled panel of judges but succeeded in wowing the internet. Sounds like the plot to every bad 'street dancing' film ever, but new album 'III' is a fluid, inventive affair...

Yes, Toronto's BADBADNOTGOOD are superficially a jazz trio. Yet there are layers to the group once known as the Odd Trio, which broke out in 2011 with post-bop covers of Odd Future. Over the course of two albums (discounting singles and live records), pianist Matthew Tavares, bassist Chester Hansen and drummer Alex Sowinski have crafted a unique sound from a mutual love of electronica, jazz and hip-hop both old and new...

A jazz musician studying in an elite academic setting conjures images of drilling scale after scale, worshipping Charlie Parker compilations, muscle memory transformed to play Bitches Brew by heart. Forget everything you know about traditional jazz, and add the careful combination of the following: influences ranging from Joy Division to J Dilla, hilarious promotional videos involving cereal eating parties, donning pig masks at live gigs and an ample dose of unpredictability...

Summary: However you do it, stay creative. 7 of 7 thought this review was well written BADBADNOTGOOD - BBNG Odd Future, or more importantly, Tyler The Creator, can't take credit for a lot of things. They're not the youngest MC's to have made it big. They're certainly not the most abrasive group out there, as Death Grips has clearly proven. And crowd surfing during shows? Please. Tonedeff was doing that shit before they were even in middle school...
