9th Prince- Prince Of The City Mixtape


In what seems at times to be a never ending and far too vast roster of talent, most Wu affiliates end up releasing massive amounts of great work and never gaining the proper noteriety for their efforts. Names like Solomon Childs (Theodore Unit), Trife Da God (Theodore Unit), Dom Pachino (Killarmy), The Wisemen (Bronze Nazereth's crew), Street Life (Method Man's protege), Shyhiem and countless others ring out in my head as some of the people that should be gaining attention in NY and around the country for their music, past and present. Yes, there are many Wu afilliated Mc's and groups that don't get their just due. Enter in Killarmy. A group that boasts some of the Wu's most skilled and talented up and comers. Dom Pachino is a lyrical cyclone, is just as interesting as he is menacing and is a skilled beatsmith. Berretta 9 is so sought after and prized amongest cult Killarmy fans the mention of his name on any net message board almost always provokes question about his forthcoming album and new projects. The rest of the group is pretty mysterious but yet still always in demand. Killa Sin, Islord and 9th Prince (Rza's younger brother) are all key components to Killarmy's unique and militant style. No question they're all talented and sought after. No question. But all of the hardcore fans will always tell you one thing the same everytime they speak on them, and that's 9th Prince is the glue that holds them all together. A rare talent, 9th is versatile and non chalant in his delivery, but can change the pace of his flow in an instant and not lose a beat ( a la his brother Rza). He is a true talent and his first mixtape release Grand Daddy flow is considered in Wu circles to be a solid effort. His new project Prince Of The City is sure to please any hardcore Wu head, and for those that haven't gotten familiar with his completely original style, don't hesitate to grab this. There are plenty of features from his Killarmy bretheren, and the production rivals that of a retail Wu release. The only drawback to this joint is that everything on it ain't brand spankin', but it still is more than worthwhile.
