New Wu project dropped today, and, well... overall I'm not terribly impressed. While I've only given it one listen through, the album is only 10 tracks long (12 if you count the two hilarious but unsatisfying skits) and the real bangers are either re-hashes or have been out for months prior to release. However, the 10 dollars I spent on the album I feel was well worth the cover art alone (pictured above, source XXLmag.com ). Done by Chris Bachalo, a comic legend, (whose work includes the likes of Captain America, The Incredible Hulk, Uncanny X-Men, and is featured in the TV series, Heroes) each cover is eefin' amazing. If my wallet permitted, I'd def pick up all three of the covers in vinyl just to have larger formats of the art.
Moving right along, I heard through the wire that Army of the Pharaohs has released a new album, "The Unholy Terror" and it is HOT. As I've just picked it up, I have yet to have an informed opinion but Celph Titled always comes with heat so I have high hopes. So Chiggity check that an get familiar.

Hmmm, I thought the best tracks were the ones that weren't already leaked or released as singles. "Criminology 2.5", "Meth vs. Chef Pt. II" and "Our Dreams" are all good and varied tracks, but I thought that "Dangerous", "Pimpin' Chipp" and "It's That Wu Shit" were the best tracks on there. It's short, but I didn't skip any tracks. I'd rather have short and sweet than overlong and bloated.
