I GOT 2 HOT ROCKS IN MY POCKET

^^^Didn't get the memo about all-over prints

But I'll give them a pass. Though they would fall into Game's "Bathing Ape shoe rapper" category, he still let them on the "One Blood" remix. Idiot. He probably figured he wouldnt be able to name drop as much with too many enemies.

So, Clipse done defeated the sophmore slump and made an album that easily makes it into my short list for the year. Hell Hath No Fury was well executed, arranged, and produced. In an era of oversaturation with crack-rap, Clipse, along with Ghostface, have demonstrated themselves to be the paragons in the field. Good thing the crackas at Jive finally let them put this out.

I hear folks complain about the length of the album, with only twelve tracks. Personally, I'd rather get twelve solid tracks than twenty with eight that are skippable. For the most part, brevity has proven to be a more of a good thing within hip-hop.

Since if you really wanted the album before this Tuesday (or wanted it for cheaper than cheap) you'd be able to find it elsewhere, here's two standout cuts for me.

Clipse - Momma I'm Sorry

Clipse - Chinese New Year
