I’d been looking forward to this coming out a long time before its general release. The combination of one of my favourite rappers with one of the World’s hottest producers surely wouldn’t fail? I was right.
This album has more of an up-tempo vibe for old Metal Face with the addition of some superb guest MC’s:- Ghostface appears on ‘The Mask’, Cee Lo’s on ‘Benzie Box’ and Talib Kwali features on my favourite track on the script – ‘Old School’, which does exactly what it says on the tin.
The whole album is scattered around the US cartoon ‘Adult Swim’. There are skits-a-plenty featuring the voices of Adult Swim characters and these are not only humourous but fit like a glove with the rest of the long player.
The basslines are fat, the lyrics are ‘Sofa King’ good, it just gel’s. This is without doubt my Hip Hop album of zero five.
You like doom? You’ll like this. You like good quality non-commercial Hip Hop? You’ll like this. If you don’t buy this album your stupid!!!
