Critics' Reviews

The critics' reviews on DikTatoR 17 were mixed as was common for Steve Lieberman's previous work.

IndieStop CD Reviewer

Senior Editor C.W. Ross at IndieStop/CD Reviewer says 'I respect the fact that Lieberman is not afraid to tackle any subject matter in the songs on this album, from his struggles with bi-polar depression, pride in Jewish heredity, anti-racism,politics, sex and animal rights....his flute work hearkens up Jethro Tull and his overdriven bass sounds give the cd a different edge.-what he plays is what you hear... Like all of Lieberman's, you'll either appreciate the raw experimental raw-edge style he delivers, or you'll think he's a total madman, either way , you'll walk away with a very strong opinion of what you just heard... Rating: 8.1/10 [8]

MuzikReviews

Carly Doenges of MuzikReviews said of DiKtatoR 17 ' Have you ever heard a song on the radio and wonder how that artist ever got a record contract? That's the feeling I get when listening to Steve Lieberman the Gangsta Rabbi's latest DiKtatoR 17...If Lieberman is going for any kind of wit or social commentary, the message is lost as the lyrics are too difficult to understand...although (DiKtator 17) was the album that got Lieberman signed to JDub Records, have a listen and decide for yourself whether it was from talent or just sheer persistence' Rating: 0.5/5.0 [9]

Wildy's World

In his 2009 review of DiKtator 17, writer Wildy Haskell states 'Steve Lieberman AKA The Gangsta Rabbi is about as eclectic as they come.While he could be dismissed as a novelty, he is a genuine street poet speaking the vernacular that exists in the ghetto...DiKtatoR 17 could be the best Lieberman ever did, because the humanity in his music is getting more and more human with time. Rating 4 Stars out of 5 [10]
