Talk:Qkumba Zoo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] NPOV?
I tagged this article as needing cleanup, because in my opinion it lacks a neutral point-of-view. Phrases like The songs provided an enjoyable listening experience, with Owl's mix of sounds and beats backing up Levannah's incredible voice. and There is no doubt that such magical musicians are still creating music in some way, shape, or form, but outside of South Africa, they now remain a mystery. have a very definite point of view. But I didn't hack up the article directly, because I am a cold heartless bastard and I probably would have gone too far in the other direction. Please, someone with a reasonable viewpoint take a crack at it? --Larry Hastings 14:52, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
The current viewpoint is not overboard. NPOV only really applies to the phrase "songs provided an enjoyable listening experience" The rest of it seems pretty neutral to me. Perhaps focusing on the unique melody hooks or layering synths could be given instead of the generic good experience statement. The album has a new and vibrant flavor that sets it apart. I am sure Sea World is smiling like a child inside all the way to the bank with this one.
I kept up with Qkumba Zoo through the whole process, and have a copy of Butterfly Peepl. Owl sent me an email mentioning that there is another album in Arista's hands composed in much the same fashion as Wake Up & Dream. They worked on it for nearly two years before making a complete break and starting on Qzoo - Butterfly Peepl.
I also found this article NPOV on more fronts than just "enjoyable listening experience." It should be made more neutral to preserve its credibility.
