It’s the return of the God Emcee.. Ra, baby. I grew up on this man’s shxt. “Paid In Full” got so much play in my deck that I wore the cassette right out. I also loved his “Know The Ledge” piece from the “Juice” soundtrack. Flawless rhymes. Impeccable timing. The dude is just flat out the last of a dying breed.  This shxt ought to go super hard, judging on the single “Walk These Streets (Feat. Maino)” alone. True Hip-Hop… And there just ain’t enough of that comin’ out these days. I’m lookin’ forward to it.

There ain’t no doubt in my fxckin’ mind. Individually, they’re beasts – all four of ‘em. Collectively, they’re a problem. Everything the media has trained you to believe about what makes a Hip Hop artist “the shit”, is a damn lie. Time to re-boot… Time to reprogram your mind. Watch, listen and learn.

Ladies and gentlemen… Real Hip-Hop fans… Give it up for Crooked I, Royce, Joe Budden, & Mr. Ortiz, better known as the industry’s new migraine.. “Slaughterhouse”.
