Killa Sha- God Walk On Water


Killa Sha has patience. I mean when you talk about guys in the game that have really lived the hip-hop life, there's no one that could say they have more than Sha....I mean he ran with Marley Marl and The Juice Crew back in the day, he's from the same projects as Mobb Deep, Tragedy Khadafi and Nas. he has worked with everyone worthwhile in NY besides Hov. He's released a few street albums and made countless, mixtape appearances, I mean, he's done it all and seen it all. Lets fast forward to 2007. Already hittin the streets with a few mixtapes this year, Sha finishes up with his latest offering God Walk On Water, his long awaited solo retail album. Coming complete with guest spots from his QB bretheren and old running mates Havoc and Tragedy Khadafi, Sha also employs the talents of Brooklynite Ill Bill, Staten Islander Trife Da God and Queens legend Large Professor. This album resonates with that good, hardcore sound that Sha decorates with his no holds barred, heavy spillage flow. From the jump, Sha delivers some great tracks. Cuts like "Nourishment", "Air", "Unbroken" and "A Thing Called Love" keep the gutter/soul vibe moving throughout the early sections of this album. The backside of the album gets considerably more thugged out, when we find Sha switching gears from being reflective and speaking on a range of topics to having him go further into his ghetto renditions of spoken word gun bussing and life in the slums, however the production stays on point thru the whole album. It's a solid effort, jam packed with Sha's best work and some of his newest material. A good buy right here, that patience of Sha's is beginning to pay off.
