I don't know about the whole "Jedi Mind Tricks" thing... I mean, if Killah Priest, Canibus, and Kool G Rap NEVER existed, then yeah, they'd be okay. But goddamn!! How much can you bite styles before you lose your own identity, and your identity BECOMES a bitten style. And the song titles of "Legacy of Blood"... WHAT THEEE FUCCCK??? Someone's trying WAY too hard to be on the whole biblical-era, poetic, disturbed mindframe. Their shit isn't natural... it's forced.
And shit, someone tell Vinnie Paz that he is NOT black, middle eastern, or Islamic. Just because they have "Islamic" rappers that follow a COMPLETELY different religion than true Islam... Doesn't mean Vinnie-boy can be one too. Fuck... at first, with the lyrical content and the voice, I thought the picture of STOUPE was actually Vinnie. He actually LOOKS like he might have some middle-eastern descent in his blood.
I think "Waterworld" by Leak Bros was a better album... and forced JUUUSST a little bit less.
"Here come the black skies
It’s all darkness/
I breathe life into Jesus Christ’s carcass!"
or, better yet...
"I'm being facetious, you should heed this/
I'm the one who hammered the first nail in Jesus" - Vinnie Paz
Oh please, Come on daddy/
Your styles is pawned, daddy/
Call back Kool G Rap,
and tell him that it's on, daddy/
You want his method, kid/
And Canibus's rep, ya dig?/
Pick up that Bible,
there's plenty more styles left to rip!" - Dee Willy Giggles, you bitches!!
