Agallah- Fuck A Purple Chain


Agallah has long been one of my faorite hardcore underground cats. Both his beats and his rhymes are poignant and hard hitting, a quality that a lot of producer/emcees lack. Although I would have to give his production the edge over his rhymin' these days, Ag manages a good effort more often than not in the category of energy. This tape is a treat for real Ag fans, as he blesses us with 24 all new bangas on his new imprint Comin Up Clutch Ent. No freestyles, no filler, just great music all from the Brownsville born, Harlem transplant. This tape also seems to serve as somwhat of an explanation for recent occurances, Namely the beef between Ag and Tru-Life and the story behind the alledged jacking of Ag's Purple City Byrdgang chain. Two tracks are devoted to letting Purple City head honcho Shiest Bubz and Dipset frontman Juelz Santana air their feelings out about the situation. The interviews are more than surprising. Fortunately for the real fans there's also plenty of music on this tape that far outweighs the childish beef interludes. Some of the tracks are pure, uhhhm, how would Ag put it...."Cocaine Piff". I'm happy to report his hi hat patterns are still mean as hell, his kicks are hitting harder than ever, and of course the sample game is still inspirig many a producer to get out there and start diggin'. This tape is a can't miss for all those fiendin' for Ag's best shit, and a great pacifier til' he drops another Lp on our heads. Be sure and check for "86' Era", "Lord Behold" and "Are You Real" with The newest BK standout St. Laz. This is a surprisingly good look from our favorite emcee and producer The Don Bishop Agallah, and a great look at the current pavement pounding direction he's taking with his lyrics and production. Make sure you peep this, mixtapes just aren't this good nowadays, as Ag provides what could easilly be the best Purple City mixtape ever!
