A-Alikes- The Hustler And The Hunted Pt.2



RBG (Dead Prez's crew) members The A-Alikes drop the second installment of their "Hustler And The Hunted" limited edition series with DJ Victorious. Victorious is really making the rounds, many of you will recognize him as rapper Sha Stimuli's (who also appears on this project) go to guy for hosting and putting together his mixtapes. The A-Alikes AKA Karaam and Ness, are a strong group with dope messages about society and all it's ills. Their not just some whiny, fake revolution type cats either, don't get it twisted, they both are real MC's that can hold their own in any arena. Their not just some Dead Prez clones, their delivery is street in nature and hailing from the Bronx, they put a unique east caost stamp on most of their music, which is largely serious and does center around a lot of political ideas and social controversies. They're real artist's man. They rap about what's really going on, and how difficilut it truly is to live in America and to be Black or Latino. If you wanna dance or "get crunk" this shit ain't gonna be for you. This is Unapologetic lyricism fused with the teachings of the 5% Nation of Islam, real production backed up by politically tinged lyrics and raw honesty. The way Karaam and Ness convey music is like listening to a speech by the late Fred Hampton or Huey P Newton. I can see why Dead Prez chose to bring these guys into their circle. If your new to their music definitely peep their album "I Eat, You Eat". I guarantee you'll become a fan after a few tracks. Although "I Eat, You Eat" was a great piece of work, I think this joint here will come to rival there work on that album. With guest appearances from Dead Prez, Immortal Technique, Bilal, Steele from Smif n' Wessun and Shabaam Sadeeq, this has a lot of potent lyrical content that will surely serve as a starter kit for any future independent thinker. Production comes courtesy of Agallah, Madsol, DJ Butta, UK's Baby J, Beat Hustlas, Thorotracks and others! Be sure to grab this, it's the most worthwhile music you'll download all week.
