Single: Canibus & Keith Murray AKA The Under Gods - 129 (prod. by Erick Sermon)




"Strictly rough shit" is how Keith Murray closes out "129", screaming the phrase that rings undeniably true in it's description of what just concluded. "129" is a new banger from Murray and Canibus who come together to form The Under Gods and are planning to release a new album in the near future.....

Murray reaches out to his old Def Squad connect Erick Sermon for the proper beatage to combine with lyrical marvel Canibus for this head nodding record that gives weak MC's til' the count of 9 to vacate the area. Clearly demonstrating their styles are still as notable and distinct as they were in their 90's hay day's you get caught up in a cut that easily could be sold as something from Sermon's unreleased vaults....

Keith is still unafraid to go anywhere in his ruffian tone, Bis' still has that skillful intellect behind the mic and Sermon's production still is draped with understated, funked out arrangements...."129" defines a sound that we lost some time back, where the music is minimal and your rhyme skills got put on full display for better or worse and only the most proficient of MC's would be able to perform the task....I for one, cant wait for the new album...

*on a side note the new album from the Under Gods is set to feature production from Da Beatminerz, Jake One and Street Runner amongst others, look for that later this year!*
