A tight album throughout. Dope lyrics, beats, and cuts. My favorite tracks are Grouchy, Architex, Wrecking Ball, & Breathe Through the Mind. This is raw experimental Hip Hop straight from the underground and pulling no punches.

The Rising Sunz have been pounding the pavement and the stages in and around Detroit for years now. You can always expect to see them at the bar rapping or drinking, usually both. Throwing Stones is a great reflection of who Aztek, Joe and Rizzo really are. The music is heavy and melodic and the lyrics are pure hip hop in the classic sense. With a few tasteful appearances, noteable guests as well (Buh!, Architext and Windmills). Throwing Stones really sticks to what the Sunz do best, lyrical battle tracks and smart party songs (Bad Habits), smart only because most of the 'party' tracks we get from the mainstream hip hop acts are completely dumbed down. The record's only downfall may be in it's length, there is alot of music to get through to hear all of Throwing Stones, it's length is compensated for w/ edgy and experimental production (Breathe Through The Mind). Throwing Stones is a strong record and a worthwhile purchase, and a bearable way to 'Support Real Hip Hop'.

Awsome..
