On their outstanding first volume, the folks behind Funky Precedent swung the spotlight on the new L.A. underground. The second volume focuses on the Bay Area. While there's certainly no shortage of talent to draw from with the likes of Planet Asia and the Hiero's Pep Love, Vol. 2 lacks the same cohesiveness of its predecessor despite some outstanding songs. Zion I and Amp Live's collaboration on "We Got It" boasts an infectiously snappy rhythm and strong lyrics. Likewise, the Bay Area's rich DJ community is well represented with Live Human ("Lagoona's Bliss Elephant Mix") and DJ Vinroc's "3ThaHardWay." Also represented are the esoteric stylings of Anticon with "Pity Party People" and the fierce, funky sounds of the Kemetic Suns on "We a Warrior." --Oliver Wang
