i LOVE the new album! I just got to LA for the   N e w   M o o n   premiere --
which looks like it will be chaos -- but it was an amazing break
to forget all that and listen to Dalama today. Awesome work....
" praCh's voice is a David to the Goliath of history !
This thing has the drama of the work of a fine rapper/artist
and the scope of epic poetry! - Awesome "
My review to you is that I am proud to know you !

I finally got a chance to sit down and listen to your new CD –
and I just wanted to tell you I loved it. They’re very different works,
but in some ways DALAMA 3, in it’s conceptual ambition and flow,
reminds me of one of my favorite albums – Prince’s LOVESEXY.
And I really enjoyed the going back and forth between English and Khmer.
Please keep me informed on your progress with this fascinating CD!

I feel that stylistically this is what true rap is.  Forget about all the
fluff that is in the modern rap industry—manicures,
threaded eyebrow and posers.  Your album makes me
appreciate rap and feels “old skools”, but in a new way. 
I long for the days that rap will return to this expression,
and I think you’ve put your finger on it.  Also, the political
expression you put into it, again, I really LOVE it.  This is what
I call “pure rap” unadulterated rhymes with raw power to
move the hills and mountains, and you’re one of the
few masters of it.  Thanks again for this gift to the world.

Upon receiving the opportunity to listen to his album,
I thought that each song, like Cambodia, was so unfathomable
in its emotions and history. The album like what has been said,
teaches and informs us of the unforgotten atrocity of Khmer rouge.
It does not preach. praCh shows his heritage and
love for his culture with taste and does so successfully.
Like all of the classics who have gone before Prach,
like that of Sin Sisamouth and Ros Serey Sothea,
and among others, praCh Ly has lived up to them.
He and like others have shown that of the years we, as minorities
who are starting here and making our new lives here,
have come so far. Good job praCh and thank you for giving me
the opportunity to learn more about your heritage.

praCh is in rare form, in this, his third effort. His originality is
unparalleled as he matches gorgeous beats with compelling
lyrics in both English and Khmer. praCh Ly is no doubt a rising star,
with the beautiful, emotional voice of a young poet and
a talent that is ripening, along with his maturity.
Dalama 3 is like nothing else being produced today,
and thus, earns its place as "must hear" music experience!
