the legendary wu-tang clan is among the most successful and influential groups in hip-hop history. as one of the nine original members, masta killa has been an important part of the wu-tang legacy since the groups debut in 1993. hes contributed verses to countless wu classics (glaciers of ice, winter warz, triumph, duel of the iron mic, wu banga 101), released three critically acclaimed solo albums, and always remained true to the core clan aesthetic: razor-sharp wisdom over dusty, soulful production. now, masta killa is back with a brand new album, loyalty is royalty. the highly-anticipated project boasts an impressive list of guest appearances, including method man, redman, kxng crooked, sean price, rza, gza, prodigy, inspectah deck, cappadonna, and more. as fate would have it, two of those mcs have since passed away, making their contributions particularly special. all praises due to the memories of sean price and prodigy of mobb deep, says mk. two hip hop legends. with production handled by the likes of 9th wonder, illmind, p.f. cuttin, rza, true master, and dame grease, loyalty is royalty delivers the kind of classic hip hop experience fans have come to expect from masta killa.

nach 24 jahren sagen drei worte immer noch alles: wu tang clan das neunteilige outfit von staten island, new york, hat einen weg für buchstäblich hunderte von künstlern geebnet und wiederholt hip hop geschichte gemacht. ursprünglich aus den ostküsten-rappern rza, gza, ol dirty bastard, method man, raekwon, ghostface killah, inspectah deck, u-god und masta killa zusammengesetzt, ist der clan nun wieder vereint, um ihr achtes studioalbum the saga continues zu liefern . die erste single des epik-albums people say (veröffentlicht am 25. august) mit dem ehrenamtlichen clan-mitglied redman, hat bereits die hip hop-community begeistert und in erwartung des albums versetzt, welches mitte oktober veröffentlicht wird. produziert von mathemathics, enthält das album auch features von killah priest, streelife, chris rivers und dem späten sean price. rza beschrieb den produktionsprozess für das rollings stones magazine im august und sagte: seit jahren hat math die idee gehabt, eine musik mit modernen und legendären geräten wie asr10 mit vokalaufführungen von wu-tang clan mitgliedern und anderen prominenten mus zusammenzustellen... mit der the saga continues setzt er ein meisterwerk.

this album has been many years in the making. around 2005 we were gigging, playing hip hop breaks and supporting acts like krs-one and raekwon. we wrote a lot of our own material, but we never properly recorded it in a studio, we did however make lots of -one mic- recordings onto a mini-disk player. tom kept hold of all of these recordings and in 2011 send copies of everything to the rest of the band. a short list of 30 were chosen to record properly. a basic studio was booked, and recording began, initially it was pretty basic, just drums, bass & keys with guitars overdubbed the following day. with these foundation rhythm tracks tom went away and edited them, creating structure, extra layers and demo mixes. these demo mixes were used to send to mcs. it was decided to go with american mcs as the type of thing we listened to when we wrote a lot of our material was classic 90s hip hop. el da sensei & sadat x were the first to respond to our request, and soon features were flying through ever other week. we actually had enough material for 2 albums, but picked what we wanted to represent our first release and continued to develop the material, including adding session musicians for harps, brass, strings and cuts. we chose 4 tracks to create videos for and got the ball rolling with various video makers. the final year was spent mixing, sequencing and deciding on artwork. the title cinder hill is reference to where the band spent many afternoons practicing at john & joe’s parent’s house, their mum maggie passed away in 2016 and the album is dedicated to her for her endless support and love for the music.

rap was something that just happened to her. keny arkana was only twelve when she started writing her first lyrics. her first contacts with the record business came in 2005. but even before she infiltrated the matrix, keny released her first opus, l’esquisse, a fast and furious street album containing the hit “le missile est lancé” produced by tefa & masta as well as “de l’opéra à la plaine”, a gargantuan freestyle track by twenty writers born and bred on the streets of marseilles. 12 years after l’esquisse and 6 years after l’esquisse 2, keny releases l’esquisse 3. a spontaneous, creative, sincere, energetic and meaningful record, with powerful rhythmic and precise arrangements. even though the record has a mixtape appearance, it hasn’t been a botched job, as evidenced by its complex structure and harmony: musical interludes around the four elements, true rap anthems like “couleur molotov” or “lejos” and contemporary hits like “abracadabra” or “freestyle beatbox” with beatboxer tressym for an instrumental. both dark in its lyrics and lively in its energy, keny’s mixtape l’esquisse 3 reveals again an artist just as we could dream in 2017: clear-sighted, offensive, touching and inspired. dear she’s been missed!

after the reception of “battle anybody” from luminaries like dj premier (#19 on his best of 2013 picks), dj evil dee, dj eclipse and more, dawhud and ace-one started working on a proper follow up to their emceeing anthem. one track turned into an ep which then quickly turned into a full length project. the project... d&g (david & goliath) - “the scepter & the sword” the concept for the group simply came from dawhud’s name (david in arabic) and ace-one, who was in the midst of fnishing up his “rapmonster” series. those two elements and the sheer chest pounding vibe of their prior track led to the creation of “david & goliath”. epic, biblical, and loaded with imagery that paints what the duo are trying to convey in just a name. produced entirely by dawhud, the duo trade verses over his landscapes to join forces and reign together. from the opening battle cry of “something’s coming” to the closing of their p-p-p-p-p-premier approved track, “the scepter & the sword” is a rap odyssey. assisting the duo on this legendary journey are emcees like masta ace, rock (from heltah skeltah), sadat x, kokane and pacewon alongside longtime friends/emcees joe harvey, jo and otomatik. with a title like “david & goliath”… legends should be involved. something’s coming…
