Local hiphop underground stalwart PHATT al's consistency is impressive. The MC's broken-down flow and inward-looking rhymes aren't likely to break him wide open to the mainstream market, but the guy's been a constant on Toronto's subterranean scene for years. Summa Skool is more high-drama hiphop, with PHATT al replacing the live-band-inspired energy of his shows with more straightforward studio beats. The soul-inspired collaborations with Kayte Burgess and Ivana Santilli work best, straddling the chasm between underground hiphop and pure pop.
