el-p in form. the dj shadow track is awesome too.

not too big on the rapping, and the subject matter (lol), but most these beats are great

I wanted to check this out, cause I read some interesting stuff, then I dfound bout three or four reviews that werent favorable and it kind of wained my interest.

what do you give it 1-10?? still worth checking out?

yeah, the beats are some of the best I've heard this year.

did I already mention that he was the last person to see DJ Subroc alive? I think I did, but it still blows my mind.

It's been a while since I heard his debut, but Cage sounds like a totally different rapper on Hell's Winter. He has really matured over the years as a songwriter and the way he chooses his topics. I love it!

Def Jux is a good place for him to be.

grrrr...I just recieved this in the mail, ordered it from Amazon used, and they fucking sent me a press advance copy with that slow-mo "this is a promo.." bullshit on each track.

That licks balls..I had that copy and that shit is annoying...

yeah i've heard that stuff too. whatta rip

but seriously, if the album is hit and miss, what tracks are the hot ones to check out?

bort

Grand Ol Party Crash is one of the best singles this year.

damn, its like mr bort wanna ruin every good party and come into every thread and be like hey hey hey fellas what are the best songs

i am kidding bort we bros.

my fav ones are "goodmorning", "the death of chris palko", "perfect world", title track and "public property" (which i think's the best track here)

frankly the rest are a bit meh right abt now

"Stripes" is for me the STANDOUT track on this album. There's some other pretty great ones as well.

"Scenesters" is fucking awful. I haven't listened to it enough yet to determine the other good/bad tracks.

agreed

I think that Cage is playing here tonight but i can't decide if i care enough to see that instead of a rented movie.
