La Coka Nostra - 100% Pure Coka EP



If your a fan of unapologetic, raw and extremely hardcore Hip-Hop than La Coka Nostra is a group that you have been aware of for awhile now. Put together in 2006 by Danny Boy, the group is comprised of his 2 other former House Of Pain members Everlast and DJ Lethal, as well as Brooklyn Heavyweight Ill Bill, Boston representative Slaine and newcomer Big Left. Dynamic and always ready to kick some lyrics that will get you amped enough to commit armed burglary while simultaneously chugging a 40 Oz., La Coka Nostra is one of the few brave (and might I add all-white) Hip-Hop groups that have pledged to keep things 100% hardcore in a time when far too many rappers are walking around in tight jeans, bright colored argyle sweaters and shy away from being even remotely violent in their rhymes.

Releasing a new portion of their highly sought after musical carnage, the fellas from La Coka drop the "100% Pure" EP. Including the break neck, trumpet laced "That's Coke" single that's been out since last year, as well as 4 of their other tracks that have been circulating for a couple years too, La Coka's debut album "A Brand You Can Trust" is looking to be somethin' that will be memorable. Packing a violent, drug laced, belligerent, gritty punch reminiscent of the hardcore glory from the mid 90's, every track on this EP bangs ridiculously. From the sinister sounding "I'm An American" featuring B-Real of Cypress Hill to the head snapping production of "It's a beautiful Thing"....if it's the ill, demented street shit you seek, than you have found it here; La Coka Nostra is the hardcore, white, death rap version of super group Slaughterhouse....

Not as long as the recent "Brand Name Dope" EP that came out last month, "100% Pure Coka" is only 5 tracks deep....some will look at that as a shortcoming, but truthfully these 5 cuts do a much more concise job of summing up what this group is all about more than anything else they've dropped previously. If I was their manager and I was shopping their demo cassette to A&R's and talent scouts these would be the tracks that would be on it. Pick this up and join me in anticipation for their upcoming (hopefully) debut.....
