Illuminati 2G

If this EP is really a taste of whats to come from his solo debut then we are in for a very interesting 2010 as far as hip hop goes. Crooked I, easily one of the most lyrically ingenious member of Slaughterhouse, tears it up on these 7 tracks. With production that brings back that west coast feel, ending it off with 2 lyrically jam-packed tracks. One being a cypher with the Horseshoe Gang and Nickle-9, all showin off their rhyming talent over a heavy beat. The last being a phenomenal slaughterhouse track.

8.5 OUT OF 10

This EP album is a great collaboration of two talented MC's who deserve more respect from the Hip Hop Industry. Canibus is as fiery and lyrically fit as he always is and Keith Murray hits you with a lot a metaphors and common-sense lyrics that has always been his forte. Some of the lyrics are "rewind that" quality, giving you flashes of the Canibus of old so, if this EP is just a sample of what's to come then, the full album should be "tight" when it drops.

Bus' is one of the greatest lyrically talented MC's of all-time but he doesn't get the credit he deserves. Murray's style and voice is one that can never be ignored and he really carries much of this EP into the mainstream and hopefully avoiding it from being only an underground hit. The beats are hot! Great collabo!

9 OUT OF 10

This Cd is tight from start to end, The intro is smooth, and the rest of the cd flows quite nicely; Three of the Best From the West with Game and Snoop is an excellent collaboration, and Light My Fire, the lead single with Snoop as well. I didn't know that they can pull this off, and they did it so well. As alway's Mr. Capone-e's Raps are tight and make sense. A must have for anyone who appreciates Chicano and westcoast rap.
