Fliptrix – “Elevation” review

Here we have the 11th solo LP from South London, England, United Kingdom emcee Fliptrix. The founder of High Focus Records as well as a member of The 4 Owls, he made his debut in 2007 off Force Fed Imagery followed by Theory of Rhyme and later Third Eye of the Storm & The Road to the Interdimensional Piff Highway. Polyhymnia came out a couple years later as did Patterns of Escapism & Inexhale. Light Work was alright & Mantra #9 took a more mature approach, coming off the Leigh Brothers-produced Dragonfly to have Forest DLG a.k.a. Telemachus soundtrack his Elevation.

“Teacher” begins with them providing a ray of light during these troubling times whereas the 3rd single “Transform” takes the soulful boom bap route instrumentally providing more insight penmanship. “1 Heart” continues from there brutally observing the modern condition leading into the 4th single “Better Watch Them” jazzily leans towards conscious vibe lyrically.

As for “33 Vertebrae”, we have Flip embracing a hip house sound talking about the part of our body that helps us elevate just before “The Divine Feminine” makes a powerful statement condemning misogyny. “Energy! Energy! Energy!” featuring General Levy fuses hip hop with jungle for a captivating teaser that could be played at EDM festivals to come while the 2nd single “Floodlights” talks about rebellion.

“Who’s the Saviour?” calls for everyone listening to rise up while the 7th single “Freedom?” featuring Coops talks about the world spiraling downward in real time. “Do You Wanna See” featuring Da Flyy Hooligan dismisses those who don’t wanna see the forest like they say they’d like to while “Dangerous” by The 4 Owls featuring Babylon Dead, Coops, Cracker Jon, Dabbla, Farma G, Harry Shotta, Jman, Kemastry, King Kashmere, Ramson Badbonez, Renelle 893, Sparkz, Truemendous, Verbz & Vitamin G comes through with an outstanding High Focus posse cut.

Continuing the 2nd half, “Tears in the Eyes of Gaia” has a more emotional approach to it talking about the way perceives beauty while “Chilling” dedicating this one to all the people who’re typically calm out in public rather than wylin’ out or getting hyped. “Ups & Downs” talks about life being similar to a rollercoaster while the 8th & final single “Visionaries” featuring Frisco adamantly expresses their desire of making perfect use of their final breaths.

“Mighty” featuring Kamakaze joins forces for a grime track cautioning not to make any moves unless you’re strong enough to bare the tussle while “It Ain’t Easy But I’m Surfing” talks about staying focused & determined although it’s not a breeze to do by any means. “I Be on My Way” sends off the Elevation with Flip discussing that the pain he’s endured can be seen on his face & carving his own path for 16 years via the biggest underground UK hip hop label.

Desiring to make something completely different compared to Dragonfly, Elevation takes the maturity of it’s predecessor & Mantra #9 by delivering an album that joins the ranks of Fliptrix’ last couple except I love this one slightly more. Telemachus’ production is more experimental than the Leigh Brothers’ was & Fliptrix’ lyricism aims to lift the world to higher state of consciousness & trigger conversations regarding the state of the world in the hope of enacting positive change during everything that’s happened in these past 14 going on 15 months. There are also a few guests that he’s never worked with before & did so in attempt to sought out new energies after collaborating with all the greats in his scene.

Score: 4.5/5

Elcamino – “Bruv” review

2nd extended play of 2026 & the 22nd overall from Buffalo, New York emcee & singer Elcamino. Blowing up almost a decade ago off his self-titled EP with Griselda Records, his profile increasingly grew after being followed up by Walking on Water mixtape in the summer of 2018 along with dropped 2 studio albums & a few EPs the year after that. They Spit on Jesus proved to be a well received Black Soprano Family Records debut becoming the first Camino project that I had covered since On the 3rd Day & that much like No Weapon Formed Against Me was an improvement over some of the material we’ve gotten from him in recent memory. Real Bad Man would produce The Game is the Game followed by Ill Tone producing Built for Cuban Links named after Raekwon’s iconic solo debut Only Built 4 Cuban Linx… produced by RZA in addition to flexing his Millionaire status & Full Moon showing a heavy Future influence. Martyr’s Prayer III produced by 38 Spesh made for a gratifying conclusion to the beloved trilogy as did Mino, but now he’s coming off the Ill Tone-produced God is Love to drop Bruv.

“London Bruv” hops over a soulful boom bap instrumental to give his flowers to the United Kingdom’s capital whereas “Green Beret” produced by Ill Tone continues the chop up the soul samples talking about those kind of people not getting a whole lot of love. “Adele” keeps the crooning chipmunk soul vibes going using the same rhyme scheme for a couple minutes while “You’re Here” talks about doing it all for the glory & taking pride in the joys of him being African American.

The song “Getting Old” continues Bruv’s last leg going completely drumless to speak of knowing he’d lock himself in since there was always more in store for him than what he’s already achieved while “Eating Steaks” brings back the sampling techniques so he can talk about being in Paris for Fashion Week last year, embracing some jazzier undertones additionally. The closer concludes the EP with a chipmunk soul outro calling out a backstabber who doesn’t wanna see the “Other Side”.

Although I lean a little more towards God is Love, I can appreciate Elcamino getting in passport mode for Bruv since France & the UK have always been my 3rd & #1 biggest audiences outside of the States respectively. The production’s more soulful than it’s primarily drumless predecessor & Meech details a hustler philosophy with runway lighting including overseas backdrops, designer details & war-ready bars balanced by flashes of family, memory, the weight of who didn’t make it, grief, pressure & discipline through flexes that he earned himself.

Score: 4/5

iyrus – “III” review

Up-&-coming Philadelphia, Pennsylvania rapper & producer of Nigerian descent iyrus is back for the final installment of his ongoing extended play trilogy. Emerging in the summer of 2024 after doing an On the Radar freestyle, he would later introduce himself more properly last spring off his debut EP Resurgence until continuing to make waves with I & II. It’s only been a couple of months since the latter began turning more heads & III has dropped exclusively on his SoundCloud page.

“Scarlett Johansson” begins with him looking to turn up the streets whilst driving a trackhawk Jeep over a sample-based trap instrumental whereas “Igbo Man” turns up the rage so he can talk about the way he’s been living. “Noise” featuring diamond* finds the 2 boisterously boasting their top shotta statuses leading into the self-explanatory “Make Money” talking about waking up every single day to stack up his bread.

Wrapping up the 1st half, “oK” discusses walking off the stage & going back to his hood a lot similarly to Miley Cyrus prior to “Blessed in Hell” incorporating some heavy 808s to talk about his confidence of always doing all of this without needing any help. “Spam” featuring Zukenee claims to be damned if they fall off harder than Lil Xan when both of them are more talented than he ever was while “Big Red Dog” talks about paying the cost of any artist wants to be at his level.

“Get Money” winds down III’s final minutes flexing that he’s been letting his expensive habits get to him, coppin’ an expensive palace out in Calabasas over more rage beats & once “Kunta Kinte” talks about going from middle schoolers insensitively calling him the main character of Roots: The Saga of an American Family during his adolescence to the one their bitches want, “Pablo” ends the EP talking about feeling like Gregg Popovich whenever he’s in Texas & the reputation he has in his own hometown.

Local artist slayr has been making a lot of waves this month because of his 2nd mixtape Half Blood being reissued, recently joining ApolloRed1 & 9 Vicious in the studio last weekend. iyrus on the other hand already began revealing his artistic potential back in January although it hasn’t been fully realized this, continuing to flourish throughout his 4th extended play. I can appreciate him taking a backseat in terms of production compared to its predecessor like I to focus more on lyrically spazzin’ alongside both guests.

Score: 3.5/5

Pradabagshawty – “5 Problems” review

Brand new mixtape & the 3rd overall from Columbia, South Carolina born albeit Atlanta, Georgia rapper/producer Pradabagshawty. Introducing himself in the spring of 2023 off Bloxk Addiktion, his popularity within the plugg subgenre of trap continued to grow last year by putting out 3 more EPs in 1 Love as well as his Cegular Records/Sony Music debut 10 Freak Ho’s & of course and Forever & After. His last few projects B What You B as well as Home Invasions and Red Flags & Roses have become his most celebrated material thus far, coming off B45P to drop the main course.

“RL Gang” hops over a plugg beat to get things going talking about rocking out a sold out show with all of his homies whereas “I’m Upset” boasts of him having an X on his chest & only doing what he feels is necessary. “Drop Dat Bag” gets back on a lavish plugg vibe instrumentally talking about giving someone some cash only for them to come back & blow it all prior to “Beat It” fusing cloud rap & rage for a nod to the late Michael Jackson’s iconic single of the same name.

b4l.scrap’s appearance on “Hootie Hoo” doesn’t really captivate me that much despite returning to a pluggier sound & the gangsta themes Pradabagshawty’s become known for leading into “My Ho” talking about his girl pulling up whenever she’s feeling horny. “Chopstick” incorporates more hi-hats as synthesizers explain explaining that life’s too short to be pissed off daily just before “Ain’t Wok” talks about missing his high when he’s feeling low.

“Domain Expansion” kicks off the 2nd leg of 5 Problems observing a snake who’s desperate to hang out with his crew over a self-produced beat while my favorite single “I Know” produced by Whyceg talks about treating his bitches like gold & playing it cool the second they turn their backs on him. “I’m Scared” discusses the guy having a yerc waiting for him at their designated spot while “4Ever” references WWE Hall of Famer, former 3-time WWE world champion, 3-time WWE United States Champion, 2-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, 9-time WWE tag team champion, 8-time WWE Cruiserweight Champion, The Crash’s inaugural Mundial Pesocompleto Campeon & アイアンマンヘビーメタル級チャンピオン Rey Mysterio.

Rounding out 3rd, the song “What I Was Sayin’” talks about the fact he’s done a lot to get his career moving full motion while “Gun Kick” featuring yotti contains one of my favorite instrumentals throughout the tape thanks to Whyceg again doing an average job at depicting the gangsta lifestyle they’ve come to know very well. “Tin Foil” cloudily speaks of staying loyal to the streets after everything he’s done for his streets & after “Night Sight” clarifies to a woman who had her chance to be with him that she filed it up, “Lies” spends the last few minutes talking about his relationship experiences.

B45P still remains one of the weakest things Pradabagshawty has done ever since his Cegular Records deal came to fruition alongside 10 Freak Ho’s, but 5 Problems thankfully makes a couple of improvements although I wouldn’t rank it up there amongst his strongest output like Forever & After or Red Flags & Roses. The argument of him being the greatest artist on the label can still be made, although both guests leave little to be desired & the plugg production’s a tad bit superior than the prelude EP almost 2 months ago.

Score: 3.5/5

J Reno – “The Dirttape 2” review

Here is the 3rd mixtape from Windsor, Ontario, Canada emcee/producer J Reno. Introducing himself over 2 decades ago off his debut tape Ground 0 as well as the full-length debut Unleashed & the sophomore effort The Lunatic’s Back, he would follow it up with 6 more albums preceding Crossworm signing him to Dirtcore Music: Lost in the Dark, Politikilla, Into the Fire, Welcome Home, Blood, Guts & Boom Bap and Me & My Demons. His debut for the Grand Rapids label The Dirttape came out a cool months earlier & the bridging portion of the trilogy has arrived.

After the “Press Play” intro, the first song “Consume” begins with this bloodthirsty boom bap beat talking about facing repercussions of playing haunted cassettes whereas “Fuck It Up” goes for a trap vibe instrumentally talking about him not being here to save a soul. ZOT’s appearance on “It’s Hip Hop” doesn’t really do much for me despite the topic of this culture running through their veins while “All In” somberly talks about the rap game being like a casino.

“Catch a Body” ends the 1st half continuing to embrace the influences of trap explaining that social media nowadays would be the new way of giving yourself a lobotomy leading into “Smoke” featuring Dr. Gigglez finds the 2 teaming up for an average stoner’s ballad. “In a Box” featuring Madd Maxxx would be my favorite collaboration of the 4 talking about people trying to pigeonhole them over a horn-inflicted beat just before “Eat You Alive” brings some orchestral influences to the picture warning that the struggle will consume all.

The track “No Compromise” featuring JxmesLxmb rounds out 3 talking about how there isn’t a check big enough for them to sell out & nobody having the power of being persuaded regarding what’s real while “Do Something” hops over some pianos for an attack directed at someone who isn’t anything like him & has no respect at all. “Step Back” ends by taking an introspective approach topically, feeling like a failure at wanting to give the ones he love an easier life than his own origins.

Now that there’s only a couple months left until the concluding chapter drops, The Dirttape 2would have to be my least favorite of this entire saga although the good moments outweigh the bad. Him carrying the concept of the series’ original installment revolving around the Tape Keeper forward & the increasingly varied production are both 2 of the biggest pros this sequel has going for it, but the guest list doesn’t make that much of an impression on me like the previous Dirttape did other than a couple of them.

Score: 3.5/5

BTS – “Arirang” review

BTS is a boy band from Seoul, South Korea consisting of RM, Suga, J-Hope, Jin, Jung Kook, V & Jimin. Their full-length debut Dark & Wild under Bighit Music & the HYBE Corporation was moderately received although Wake Up & Youth both proved to be less favorable, bouncing back with Wings & dividing audiences again by dropping Face Yourself a couple years later. Love Yourself: Tear as well as Map of the Soul: 7 & BE would continue to polarize the musical spectrum, reuniting following the completion of their military service for their 9th album.

“Body to Body” gets things going with this k-pop/pop rap intro expressing the lustful desires towards their romantic interests whereas “Hooligan” talks about acting a fool again & wanting everyone to watch these beat go crazy. “Aliens” fuses trap with the k-pop & pop rap sounds thanks to Mike WiLL Made-It confidently assuring the world that this’ll be one of the biggest jams of the year just before “FYA” produced by Diplo & Flume sings about a woman willing to dance on fire.

Pluss & Mike WiLL run it back with BTS on “2.0” pulling inspiration from trap once again so they can remind everyone of how they do but after the “#29” interlude, “Swim” sings to their lovers about spending their lives watching them & how they’d only want to be beside them. Tame Impala gives “Merry Go Round” a bit a synthpop vibe realizing their lives are broken rollercoasters only they themselves can blame for it while “Normal” sings about what they would like to consider the usual

“Like Animals” continues the 2nd half of Arirang with this atmospheric pop ballad assuring the love of their lives to eat this life until their hearts are full while “they don’t know ‘bout us” combines elements of trap along with pop rap & k-pop singing about people not knowing shit regarding them. After asking “1 More Night” to stay with their partners, “Please” makes it clear to them that they’ll take another step closer when the world falls apart & the final song preceding the “Armyrang” outro ends by singing about following their loved ones “Into the Sun”

It was funny to see the “Dynamite” music video being included during season 10 of MTV’s hit series Beavis & Butt-head on Paramount+ preceding their move to Comedy Central, but I’ve never considered myself a fan of BTS’ music outside of that & Arirang achieves the expectations of becoming the most enjoyably consisting LP they’ve ever made. Their k-pop style secondarily explores the sounds of pop rap, alt-pop, trap, synthpop, pop, experimental hip hop & contemporary R&B for a reunion that offers a glimpse of new perspectives.

Score: 3.5/5

underscores – “u” review

underscores is a 25 year old singer/songwriter & producer from San Francisco, California who dropped 6 extended plays between 2015-2020 including Trust Exercises, Grawlix, Air Freshener, Skin Purifying Treatment, We Never Got Strawberry Cake & Character Development!. Her full-length debut Fishmonger would follow as would Boneyard a.k.a. Fearmonger & the sophomore effort Wallsocket, the latter 2 being widely considered as her greatest work. Coming off the Covergirl: Originally by Sonny EP in 2024 & of course producing a few tracks for Danny Brown’s 7th album Stardust this past fall though, she’s signing to Mom + Pop Music her 3rd studio LP.

“Tell Me (U Want It)” begins with a self-produced electropop, dance-pop, hyperpop, complextro & slimepunk single that she considers “Music for my iPhone spy movie” singing about direct communication in a relationship whereas “Music”blends electropop, hybrid trap, hyperpop future bass, bubblegum bass, colour bass & pop rap sampling “Gunk” off Fishmonger singing about feeling the harmony. “Hollywood Forever” issues a clear statement that she doesn’t want to be buried in the titular cemetery while “The Peace” goes a capella to talk about not speaking unless spoken to.

The late SOPHIE & Arca are both key inspirations of “Innuendo (I Get U)” confessing to part of her hope she can understand this person she’s addressing leading into “Lovefield” hypnotically mourns a type of love that was unrewarded. “Do It” combines electropop, dance-pop, contemporary R&B, complextro & electro house singing about not committing to a relationship due to the riskiness of it but once she sensss a “Bodyfeeling” she doesn’t tell her partner of, “Wish U Well” ends the album wanting nothing the best out of a woman who moved on.

Expanding the intricately high impact world continuing to be built by its own creator, Mom + Pop introduces underscores as part of their roster by presenting the most accessible entry in her entire catalog & what I’m sure will be amongst 2026’s most lauded opuses. Her songwriting’s more emotionally charged than everything she’s done previously & the electropop production culminates many different era of career. More specifically the styles of electronic dance music, dance-pop, alt-pop, future bass, bubblegum bass, hybrid trap & hyperpop.

Score: 4.5/5

Mike WiLL Made-It – “R3SET” review

Mike WiLL Made-It is a 36 year old producer from Marietta, Georgia who has become one of the most in-demand producers across hip hop, trap R&B & pop for the last decade. He would also drop 5 mixtapes throughout the early 2010s including the Est. in 1989 series as well as #MikeWiLLBeenTriLL & Ransom, the latter of which came out through his own label Ear Drummer Records & gave us a sequel under Interscope Records almost a decade ago. The soundtrack for Creed II however became his final major label offering, returning a few days shy of his birthday to drop a sophomore effort independently.

“ATL (APPR3CIAT3 TH3 LOV3)” by 21 Savage splits itself into halves to get things going with the help of London on da Track showing love to the city that made them whereas “Standing O” by Monaleo & Travis Porter co-produced by Shawn Ferrari blends some hi-hats & synthesizers for a decent single catered to the strip clubs. “TIM3” by SahBabii wasn’t as strong of a 2-parter as the intro although I appreciate the respect paid to the late Black Sabbath frontman & WWE Hall of Famer Ozzy Osbourne, but then “RUSSIAN ROULETT3” by Young Thug makes up for it talking about the game of chance.

Anycia, J Money & KARRAHBOOO all get together for “My Way” moderately talking about having things how they’d like over an instrumental Sonny Digital was involved in cooking up while “@ 874” by Hunxho & 2 Chainz shows off Mike WiLL’s ear for sampling although Tity Boi had the strongest performance out of both of them. “D33P3R” by Ludacris & Teezo Touchdown was easily my favorite single due to them tastefully combining R&B & pop rap to describe being deep in love while “Rooms” by Chief Keef & YoungBoy Never Broke Again unites both of them to explore the typical themes of their own individual discographies.

“O.F.G. (Opportunities For Growth)!” by J. Cole with co-production from Pluss & 30 Roc gets the 2nd half going talking about there being too much money for him to get & only having chances at evolution going forward in his career while “STOV3 LIT” by OJ da Juiceman has to be one of the best songs I’ve heard from him in quite some time recalling his days when he was trappin’ in the lab. “MONEY TALK$” by Killer Mike, T.I. & Young Dro brings all 3 of them together with Zaytoven helping behind the boards to talk about the paper while “AAA” by Sid Sriram continues with this mediocre attempt at trap soul named after the Endeavor-owned TKO Group Holdings division WWE’s subsidiary Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide.

The late Lil Keed gets a posthumous track of his own with “IN MY H3AD” talking about having some shit going on mentally until his passing over an beat Chopsquad DJ had a hand in making while “All I Know” by Cee-Lo Green shits all over “AAA” combining gospel & soul for a passionately sung ode wondering if anyone believes in God because He believed in him. “Major” by Swae Lee ends the R3SET with an outro that’s far more tolerable than the latter’s “Flammable” single, which gives me some hope for his upcoming sophomore effort Same Difference.

Taking the opportunity to cement his presence in a new decade, Mike WiLL Made-It’s follow-up to Ransom 2 celebrates his birthday a few days early by dropping an improvement above it’s predecessor & one of the better mainstream producer curated albums that I’ve heard more recently. The production expands the trap & pop rap styles he’s become known for in addition to occasionally venturing out to experiment with gospel & trap soul, primarily bringing the right guests in those lanes other than a couple lulls.

Score: 3.5/5

Samara Cyn – “Detour” review

This is the 3rd EP from Murfreesboro, Tennessee rapper & singer/songwriter Samara Cyn. Beginning her career in 2019, it wasn’t until the fall of 2024 where her debut EP The Drive Home began to turn heads and catch people’s attention because of the way she fused alternative hip hop with neo-soul. Her most recent extended play Backroads came out right around the time she was selected to be apart of the 2025 XXL Freshman Class last summer, looking make a quick Detour exactly 9 months later & only a week following her most recent single.

“Free” starts us off with this heavenly intro singing about wanting to fall in 2 prior to an EDM breakdown to conclude it whereas “Good is a Lie” produced by ovrkast. blends neo-soul & hip hop talking about her desires to light this guy’s world up. “oooshxt!” honors the legacy of Missy Elliott admitting that she hasn’t been doing so sweet as of lately despite all of her successes, but then “Bushwick” featuring ovrkast. brings both of them together so they can talk about nobody threatening them.

The song “over influence” continues Detour’s final moments rapping like the rent’s due on top of promising that she won’t ever let a weak bitch inside of her home & taking some inspiration from orchestral music with the strings while “Highest” incorporates 1 last ovrkast. beat talking about doing shit that others out here aren’t. “Nomad” finishes things up with a moody closer detailing her experiences of being stood up, lied to, led astray & people spitting in her face.

Known for often fusing hip hop & neo-soul in her music, Samara Cyn comes off her Camp Flog Gnaw performance this past fall by creatively pushing herself throughout Detour to the point where I have to put it above the EP she gave us 9 months earlier. The pop rap, boom bap & alternative R&B production’s a bit more experimentally darker than what many of us familiar with her have grown accustomed to & conceptually, she’s issuing a statement based off her own experiences of disconnecting from social media built around remaining human in the modern age of the internet.

Score: 4/5

Ouija Macc – “Pyramid of Skulls” review

Here is the 10th studio LP from Las Vegas, Nevada emcee Ouija Macc. Breaking out when the Insane Clown Posse signed him to Psychopathic Records shortly after putting out his debut EP Trashfire independently almost a decade ago, Ouija has since proven himself as the hatchet’s biggest solo act dropping his last 9 full-lengths, 2 greatest hits compilations, 8 mixtapes & 5 EPs all in the span of nearly 8 years. He even started his own label Chapter 17 Records, with Darby O’Trill now being the only artist signed. He has since declared himself America’s Most Wicked back in November & looks to enter the Pyramid of Skulls weeks after CoKane as well as 2 Tuff Tony & Willie Mack became the new JCW World Juggalo Heavyweight Champion & JCW World Juggalo Tag Team Champions respectively.

Devereaux samples “Psycho Killer” by Talking Heads for the intro “Chalupa Mode” laughing off all the dummies who’re getting salty because they’re not finding any dirt on him whereas “0 Day” wickedly suggests to step out of his zone if you’re trying to imitate the type of shit he’s been on. “Faygo n’ Crown” flips “The Graveyard” by Project Born featuring ICP to talk about mixing the Juggalo Juice & whiskey prior to “The World is Hell” addressing an observation he’s had this whole time despite the name reminding all of the previous generation juggalos who’ve become down with Ouija of a track Esham did with Twiztid off my personal favorite album of theirs The Green Book during The Unholy’s brief Psychopathic tenure in the early 2000s as “The Boogieman”.

“Gnome Sayin’” shows a bit of a Memphis influence talking about stacking skulls all the way up to the ceiling while “Leviticus” blends a bassline & some hi-hats to tear down a bitch to dismantle a bitch with a gun, except Ouija knows he’s too much of a bitch to pull the trigger. Things lean towards a ghostlier direction instrumentally on “Behind the Beyond” talking about receiving messages from spirits that’ve been haunting him leading into him “Fillin’ Up My Bag” full of severed heads.

Reaching the halfway point, “On My Mind” gives off a more Hellish sound talking about having the idea of murder stuck in his head until telling the story of a “Haunted Cabinet” he stuffs all those dead bodies inside of. “Up 2 Something” continues the 2nd act of the Pyramid of Skulls speaking of the chosen few being excluded when armageddon eventually comes while “Chest Pain” makes it clear that all the real ones ain’t ever coming back once they’re gone & laying his ass to rest because of the dead holes he got.

“Killem All” was a phat lead single to begin the rollout talking about murdering everyone while “Bloody Mess” gets on his emo shit over the quirkiest instrumental of the bunch constantly thinking of death because of his depression. “No Place Like Home” talks about him continuing to stack up skulls like he’s building a masterpiece while “Candle of Revenge” vividly describes him dismembering guys who mistreat women. “Crying in the Pyramid” might be one of Ouija’s greatest songs taking an introspective approach to the lyrics on top of this cloudy beat using a sample & “Never Die” ends with him making sure his homies live forever.

Juggalo Championship Wrestling (JCW) will be kicking off their March Massacre weekend of JCW Lunacy tapings tonight & of course I have to mention Juggalohio IV going down next weekend, so America’s Most Wicked takes the disciples of the Sunken Church through the Pyramid of Skulls whilst reaffirming Ouija Macc’s constant balance of quantity & quality. Being teased since the Temple of Ash era almost a year & a half ago, it thematically picks up where Sunken Church left coming straight off the top of his head.

Score: 4.5/5
