Alternately brilliantly inspired and brilliantly confused, Busta Rhymes' second album, When Disaster Strikes, isn't perfect, but it's considerably more creative than the bulk of contemporary hip-hop albums. Using the Wu-Tang Clan's haunting soundscapes as a blueprint, Busta Rhymes expands that formula, adding funkier beats and elements of electronica and electric funk.
