Horrorcore is still a bubbling, under-promoted market, but Chambermusik Fans can't get enough of it. Hell has a face and it ain't nothing sweet as Wu-Fam legend Dungeon Masta gives shine to many underground artists as well as unleashing some of Professor X's last recordings, featuring Sean Price, Dungeon Masta, Blu Wise, Killa Priest, and many others.
After branching out into Reggaeton territory with their 2006 release, N.O.R.E. Y LA FAMILIAYA TU SABE, Nore brings it back with a thorough album of hardcore hip-hop on his fourth solo effort, NOREALITY. At 13 tracks deep, NOREALITY is an even balance of neck-snapping club-bangers and thugged- out gangsta anthems. The Swizz Beatz-produced opening cut, "Set It Off," and Nore's ode to ecstasy, "Pop a Pill," are custom-made for the dancefloor, while the aggressive posturing and crime-life narratives of "Cocaine Cowboys," "Green Light," and "The Rap Game" will please listeners with a penchant for his Capone-N-Noreaga work. Nore also takes time to boast the potency of his weed stash on "Sour Diesel," and detail a list of fellow artists and celebs that he's drunk under the table on "Drink Champ." Production comes courtesy of the Alchemist, Tony Heath, Grease, Algado, Kyze Beats, and OZ & Deacon, among others, while Nore enlists guest rappers Kanye West, Tru Life, Kurupt, Jadakiss, Styles P, Three 6 Mafia, and C.N.N. crimy Capone....
Napoleon, who was first associated with the legendary Wu Syndicate, was encarcerated at the time of their debut album but he is no less a key figure in their development. With blazing hit singles V.I.P. ft. The Clipse, and Game Recognize Game, ft Ghostface, as well as Make Money, ft Jim Jones, this album is no lightweight offering. This comeback by the "Kingpin" himself is definitely tight and not to be missed! Producers include Kevlar, L.E.S., and others.
Natural Selection' is a cross-section of the new line-up of hip-hop classics this Brooklyn-based label has in store for 2006. Highlights include tracks from the much hyped Ghostface/DOOM collaboration 'Swift And Changeable', joints from Pete Rock's new album 'NY's Finest', plus a taste of 'Made In Brooklyn', the follow-up to Masta Killa's smash debut 'No Said Date'. 'Natural Selection' also includes 2 bangers from West-Coast supergroup Strong Arm Steady (Xzibit, Phil The Agony, Krondon and Mitchy Slick).
NLZ is back, this time with a brand new album! Member of Team Napalm, Crazy 88s, and Sylent Soliders, NLZ aka Warmachine is a force to be reckoned with. He is a Hip-Hop Vet, down with the game for years, but known mainly in the underground. This album brings it back to that grimy Chambermusik Sound we all crave and love! Nas is even featured on one track of this banga!
Member of Team Napalm, Crazy 88s, and Sylnt Soliders, NLZ aka warmachine is a force to be reckoned with. He is a Hip-Hop Vet, down with the game for years, but known mainly in the underground. This album breaks the barrier with such hits as "Nod Ya Head to This", "Eye Candy", & "You Know My Name". NLZ is destined for worldwide appeal.
The RZA (of Wu-Tang Clan fame) discovered these young, talented artists as they have proven in this, their sophomore release, that they are no mere fluke. ChristBearer & Meko's lyrical skill is brazen, original, and always has a positive message. Their music is designed to reach the masses with a touch of that Gangsta element, lots of bizzarre humor, yet always funky as hell! Also featured on this outing are fellow Killa Beez Warcloud/Holocaust and Timbo King.
