edit: just reversed the Intro  the backwards vocals say "Death will befall everyone" "No one can escape death" "Death is around you at all times"

granted, calling it a concept album might be a stretch. it's more like a concept EP with a bunch of other songs thrown in to make it an LP.

Raises a good point too. I think the classic sound is a smart choice for their MNE debut, to appease the fans they obviously do have.

Album drops in 5 days and I just now reminded myself to check out the single and sampler.

"Oldskool AMB" is a fair projection, I think. Another word I saw was "basic" but those two arguably go hand-in-hand. I'm not gonna be the lame who judges an album by the sampler, though.

I see Bonez is still using the rhyming dictionary approach. No surprises there. I'll tell you this, the motherfucker is nothing if not committed. He picked a direction and went with it. Just kept...on...walking. 

Otis rhyming about the gubment and international banks and shit is interesting, I'm happy that they're diversifying their subject matter beyond 'We hustle. We flow. We also grindin.'+paint-by-numbers horrorcore. 

This is the first Twiztid+AMB collab on their release since Blood In, that'll be a cool thing to set side-by-side and compare. All that said, I'm just as excited for this as I was before I listened to the promo. Which is not really at all. Still gonna listen though, hope I hear something I like. I'm just not looking forward to another hour of Bonez' Sesame Street ass on every other verse.

Dread. Yes, that's the word for how I feel about that.  

"Bonez Dubb for sheezy

Boxer shorts is breezy

Family Guy is what I watchin on my console TV

You can call me Bonez D

Yesiree that's me

I can spell that for ya, it is B-O-N-E-Z"

All joking aside, though, I like his flow most of the time.  Even if his lyrics aren't the best.

jiggles the clown said I just can't fuck with gorilla voltage. the way they flow, especially the one dude who always chopping, just makes every song sound the same regardless of the beat.   

ClockworC's lyrics are actually pretty good, but they are basically incomprehensible unless you really listen.  For example, here's what somebody submitted to Genius for his verse on Stars Collide

"On the top then its wine
Bringing bang for your buck
With the back gauge for the game
Where it racks up
So my rash in my main pain
To your main dame
Tiill she cry dang
Clock out till the bombs sack go
Kaboom
Radio act like a rabbit wound
Marine gasoline ya fiend
Pass the guillotine
Chop the off till the coffer
Off of your neck
Ping them till they get to the dead
Clock to my rock the nickel
You fucking with the best
The rest are a pint too
You can't contest with the death
And i kiss you pucker up buttercup
Suck on my pistol
(thank you)
Danger to stranger
Was out on the bender for 10 years plus
Mind with must
I trade on the street for these beats with a feverish passion for the havoc
And now we gonna crush
Ain't no tricking smoke and mirrors
You gon see me in the limelight
Whether or not what I want
Is there still its time for you for the other tide
Call my time up
When I get in game
Spank motherfuckers right down the curb
Kick crimes just jump outta the ocean from this lit
Heartless the devil incarnate
Spit my toxic waste at youth
Face in the proof of the truth
Of my danger truth
There is a god but he just doesn't give a motherfuck about you"

That's a pretty bad interpretation, lol.

Here's one where he raps normally, and it's not half bad:

Side Note:  Been on this dude named Pouya lately.  I'm sure you younger bros know who that is, I just found out about him.  God damn that dude comes rippen...  

Pouya is dope.

That track with Twiztid sounds fuckin dope. 

I wish Jamie rapped more like that these days, its so old school Madrox, his high pitch voice/raps can bounce.  He used to rap like that way more back in the day, now a days it just makes its celebrity appearance.

I mean I guess its whatever the certain track calls for, but I need more 'coin flip lunatic' & 'Nosferatu' Twiztid..... 

And a fat ass hell yeah to this sampler.  Sounds fresh AMB to me, I've always really dug Bonez.  I don't give an inch of a fuck about nuttin.  Gimme some dope music to bump.

It's probably really harsh on his vocal cords.

I think people are gonna say that this album could be on the radio #Mainstream   

Shit, why not?  It's good rap.

@1:00 I almost spit my drink out at that basic ass horn beat, wtf!?!?!

to me it just sounds like they're trying to rap over John Cena's entrance music.
