At the risk of sounding blasphemous, I just wasn’t feeling Reflection Eternal’s last 12″ (“Express”). The production felt off and even a little uninspired and Kweli doing braggadocio just isn’t as good as him moralizing. Insightful lyrics – even when heavy-handed – usually edge out middle of the road ego flexin’. “Move Somethin’” is neither – it’s a straight b-boy party anthem complete with dramatic horn choruses and a driving, marching beat. It has its moments and isn’t as overblown on testosterone as some of R.E.’s Rawkus label mates. But it’s not ultramagnetic either in its charms. It’s an adequate joint that will likely get a little play in the mixshow circuit and then quietly die off. There’s certainly better songs off the album – either for the underground set or for the crossover crowd. Why this one?
