Andre Williams - The Black Godfather '2000

Tracks list

 ReviewAfter recording one of the sleaziest albums of recent memory, 1998s
Silky, what was Andre Williams supposed to do for an encore? Well, with The
Black Godfather, Mr. Rhythm brings sleaze rock to new heights (or depths,
depending on how you look at it). On Silky, producer and general co-conspirator
Mick Collins (of the Gories and the Dirtbombs) rounded up an impressive team of
Detroit-area grit-rock all-stars to back up Williams, but for The Black
Godfather, Collins and Williams went nationwide, with the Jon Spencer Blues
Explosion, the Compulsive Gamblers (formerly the Oblivions), the Cheater Slicks,
and the Countdowns all kicking up a fuss as Williams wails on Whip That Booty,
Nasty Women I Hate Cha, and The Dealer, the Peeler, and the Stealer. While Silky
sounded somewhat more unified, The Black Godfather rocks a good bit harder, and
while the previous album featured the occasional moment of (relatively) subtle
calm, this time out Williams is firing on all cylinders at once and sounding as
nasty as he wants to be. The Black Godfather is loud, its wild, and my, but its
in poor taste; if that sounds like a bad thing to you, youre best off leaving
this be, but if that description sounds like fun, pick this up and have a party
as Andre Williams shows you how to Sling That Thing. Points added for the cover,
a hilariously accurate parody of a typical No Limit Records package. ~ Mark
