The magic carpet metal swing set is a unique and exciting play equipment that adds an element of mystique to outdoor play. This swing set combines the thrill of swinging with the enchantment of a magic carpet ride. The structure of the swing set consists of a sturdy metal frame that is designed to accommodate multiple swing seats. The frame is built to provide stability and durability, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for children.

These swing seats are designed to resemble magic carpets, with vibrant colors and intricate patterns that add to the overall appeal.
Well, this album (or mixtape, maybe?) does have its fair of snoozers. It opens with some very dull tracks; the only good thing about 'Undeniable' is Mos' beautiful interpretation of that 'You Can't Stop Us Now' chorus. If you took the beat and that chorus from 'Undeniable', and put it with Nas' 'You Can't Stop Us Now' verses off Untitled. shit would be dope.
'U R The One' is the first knockout, a perfect synthesis of laid-back production, Mos' awesome singing, and personal, passionate rhyming. There really seems to be a 'neo-soul' feeling to a lot of this album, like Mos was trying to craft something akin to D'Angelo's Voodoo.
Sure, it s no lovingly crafted tribute to all aspects of hip-hop like Black On Both Sides but I really don t see why any Mos Def fan would dislike True Magic. It s been rumored that this is a deal-closer, the last album Mos owes Geffen Records, the label that inherited him when Rawkus Records folded in 2002 and was rolled into Interscope Records vast empire.
These swing seats are designed to resemble magic carpets, with vibrant colors and intricate patterns that add to the overall appeal. The magic carpet swing set not only provides children with a fun and exhilarating swinging experience but also encourages imaginative play. Children can imagine themselves flying through the sky on a magic carpet, enjoying the freedom and excitement that comes with it.
Mos def true wagic
If any average rapper put this out, it would be a decent, listenable project. But since it's Mos Def it was seen as a big disappointment. No matter whose standards you're judging this off of, you can't give it too much praise. The only song I really liked and have kept listening to through the years is the closer, "Lifetime". If you want, listen to that track and skip this album.
3.08/5 PublishedThis is basically New Danger minus everything that made New Danger good. Bored Mos over boring beats, oh, and a dull Liquid Swords cover for some reason. Considering the label bs surrounding this album I doubt even Mos Def himself considers this a legit release. Pretend this part of his discography doesn't exist.
PublishedHi, I'm team_vampire, and this is my new series of reviews, "Why U Been Sleeping?" where I look at the hip-hop albums I bought years ago and just haven't listened to enough. Some are universally loved classics, some are a little underground, some are the kind of stuff nobody will ever care about, but I'm trying to re-evaluate all of them. This review is for probably the least popular album by Mos Def, the divisive True Magic. Why have I been sleeping on this? Fuck you mean? Everyone knows this is bullshit! Can't believe Mighty Mos even released this piece a shit! "Contractually obligated", my nuts. just goes to show Mos is only about makin that C.R.E.A.M.! . Actually I always liked True Magic quite a bit. I seem to recall that Mos was in 'laid back' mode on the mic, and on some tracks he got damn near horizontal. But I do remember this being a nice album with a few absolutely gorgeous tracks. Still, next to Black On Both Sides and the underrated New Danger I never really was in love with it.
When I realised I didn't remember a single song from this album, and it'd been maybe a year since I'd listened to it in full, I knew I had to handle that. Mos don't deserve that shit! Plus unlike a lot of the CDs I been sleeping on, I remember really enjoying this album - if not, y'know, actual songs on there.

I wanna say early as possible, it's clear that those opposed to rappers getting too 'preachy' aren't gonna want to fuck with True Magic. Mos airs out a bunch of his personal grievances whether it's Dubya giving Katrina the bozack, young black men dying on the streets, and of course the ever present wack MCs. However, this isn't all bad times. It's also quite joyful at times. Of course he gets personal ('U R The One') and plays the Brooklyn ruffneck/tough MC a bit ('A Ha', sadly not an Alan Partridge collaboration). He plays at being a rabble-rousing street singer on 'There Is A Way' - a pretty song I think, but not one of my favourite 'singin' Mos' moments. We also get an early indication of the 'Mos DOOM' style ya heard on The Ecstatic, on 'Napoleon Dynamite'. I didn't fuck with that sound then though and I don't fuck with it 3 years back in the catalogue.
It's made more 'mixtapey' by a few throwaway-type tracks like 'Perfect Timing', but Mos often had stuff like that on albums - we can call it 'throwaway' but the more polite/euphemistic term 'experimental' works just as well. The 'mixtape' vibe is more present in Mos jumping on a few beats that we might've heard before. Of course he does the 'Liquid Swords' beat, which I personally think he more than did justice to. Apparently he also does a beat Juvenile used, for the song 'Dollar Day'. I can see why some (G.O.Z. I'm talmbout you) wouldn't really be down with a Juvenile track being used, after all the two MCs couldn't be more dissimilar right? Well it seems to me like Mos really made a choice to get on a beat that would embody modern New Orleans for this track, as it's very much specifically about the aftermath of Katrina and extensive criticism of the government reaction. I can kind of see the criticism though, the beat doesn't fit so well here - a little too 'club focused'. I like that juxtaposition though. Mos does his level best to make it his own with some of that testifyin' singing, IT SOUNDS SO SOULFUL DON'T YOU AGREE. And it's not a million miles from 'Sex Love And Money' on The New Danger.
Yeah. I really do like this album quite a lot. Sure, it's no lovingly crafted tribute to all aspects of hip-hop like Black On Both Sides but I really don't see why any Mos Def fan would dislike True Magic. I guess unless you only like his rapping and hate when he does "that lame singing shit" but he's been doing singing vox since Black Star so it's not a good day for you anyway. Go get yourself a bag of coughphee!
Why HAVE I been sleeping on this album?! I should bump this just as much as The New Danger.
The production doesn't help often, either. "Murder of a Teenage Life" is turgid and off-key-- death knells for a rhymer-- while "Fake Bonanza" is the sort of aimless, generic production that gives boho rappers a bad name. Some tracks here would be decent fodder for a C-level mixtape, like "Crime & Medicine", a note-for-note remake of GZA's "Liquid Swords", minus the Genius' lyrical bite and intensity. Also included is the much-maligned "Dollar Day (Surprise, Surprise)", his Hurricane Katrina missive released last year. Messily rhyming in an odd twang over Juvenile side project UTP's "Nolia Clap", Mos received a pass for the song, as his heart is clearly in the right place (at least he dissed Bono), even if his ear seemed waterlogged. But to include it on a proper album is a poor move.
In addition to swinging, the magic carpet swing set may also include other play features such as slides, climbing ropes, and platforms. These additional elements enhance the overall play experience and provide children with a range of activities to engage in. Overall, the magic carpet metal swing set is an exciting and imaginative play equipment that brings the enchantment of a magic carpet ride to the backyard. It offers children a unique and thrilling play experience while encouraging physical activity and imaginative play. It is a perfect addition to any outdoor play space that will keep children entertained for hours on end..
Reviews for "Create a Magical Playground with the Magick Carpet Metal Swing Set"
1. Emily - 2 stars - The Magick carpet metal swing set was a huge disappointment for me. The quality of the materials used is very poor; it feels flimsy and unstable. The swings are uncomfortable and not designed well, causing discomfort and even pain after just a short while of use. Additionally, the assembly instructions were not very clear, making it difficult to put the swing set together. Overall, I would not recommend this product as it does not meet the quality standards one would expect for the price.
2. Mark - 1 star - Avoid the Magick carpet metal swing set at all costs! I made the mistake of purchasing it for my kids, and it has been nothing but a headache. The metal frame started rusting within a month of outdoor use, even though it claims to be weather-resistant. The swings themselves are poorly constructed, and one of them broke after just a few uses. The overall design is also not ergonomic or comfortable for children; my kids complained of back pain after using it. Save your money and invest in a better quality swing set.
3. Sarah - 2 stars - The Magick carpet metal swing set is a disappointment in terms of durability and safety. The metal frame is weak and flimsy, and it wobbles with every swing. It doesn't feel secure or stable for children to play on. The swings themselves are uncomfortable and have sharp edges, which is concerning for the safety of kids. The instructions for assembly were also difficult to follow, causing a lot of frustration during the setup process. I would not recommend this swing set to anyone looking for a reliable and safe option.
