3.7 greatErwann S. STAFF | June 17th 20

Underground 90s East Coast record. They first signed with Fondle'Em (them again eh) but released their first album As The World Burns through Matador. Their incandescent brand of rap finds its balance in the ever-knocking beats and ever-changing flows of the five MCs (!). Notably, all 21 tracks contain all bar, no chorus, adding an enraged urgency to the record. Unfortunately, this never-resting energy does get tiring, especially since the record clocks in at a bit more than one hour. All beats are cool, as are the emcees' flows, but the lack of variety plagues this record, which could have been fucken amazing if it had been trimmed down a bit. Make a shorter album with the 10 best songs and you'd get one stone-cold classic.
