EarthGang – Shallow Graves For Toys

artworks-000052385222-su1sbq-t500x500 We a little late on this one but we here. Shout out to Spillage Village cause EarthGang did their thing on this one. This is an album. Not a mixtape. You can tell that care was taken when it came to the creation of this project and yes I’m going to make the lazy Outkast comparison and I mean that in the best way possible. You have two extremely creative minds here working in tandem and is extremely rare that the sync works this well. At this point we are just waiting for someone to snatch these dudes up because this may just be the most label worthy project to drop from an unsigned artist in the A in a while. There is definitely a sound here. Charismatic verses carry the majority of the audio. We don’t really get a true hook from them until track 4 (No Peace) but with lines like “Whole f**kin’ generation is abortion survivors.” the star is still their lyrical capability. This is not to say that the boys can’t give us choruses. Quit the opposite. They seem to save them. If the Machete hook isn’t one of the most catchy tunes you’ve heard in your life I’ll eat you! And if the DJESUS IS BLACK break at the beginning didn’t make you smile even a little you going to hell for lying. Nearing the end of the project you start to realize you’re listening to music. It’s funny and serious, thought provoking and mind numbing. It’s whatever you thought it was. (I thought about only featuring a premiere track and then I thought, like every other project we’ve covered, this should be experienced as a whole but if you don’t have that kind of time. I would recommend jumping to DJESUS IS BLACK.) @EarthGang
