It’s a certified fact that’s “Set In Stone!” On “Black Mask,” the colossal collaborators link up with SHEEK LOUCH, WAIS P & LIL FAME for a savage display of lyricism called “Black Mask.” The ravenous rhyme renegades demonstrate exactly how hungry they are by chewing up the sonic scenery in no time flat.

9) DJ MUGGS x MACH-HOMMY join forces with YOUR OLD DROOG again(!!!)for audio heat called “Apollon’s Wheels!” It’s time to “Kill Em All” & that’s exactly what the underground trifecta do as they lead a reign of terror on EVERYONE who steps in their way. At this point it makes no sense to EVER approach them for a battle. Just stay inside & pray you don’t become their latest victim!
10) BLU x DAMU THE FUDGEMUNK leave us off with a BANGER that was difficult to select because their ENTIRE “Ground & Water” album kicks serious ass! After much deliberation(which consisted of beating the hell out of each other)we agreed on the CASHUS KING, SHAWN JACKSON, YAMIN SEMALI & LOCAL BLACC featured heater “Beast Mode” & we couldn’t be happier. The lyricism on this particular track exists on a higher level…one that will NEVER be attained by their peers. Digest the sonic meal they’re serving then go back for seconds & thirds. They keep it real in the land of the collagen lips & fake tits…and if y’all love authentic Hip Hop you will too!
Well that’s it for this week. Catch ya next time and…DON’T SLEEP!
