Wu-Tang is the obvious reference point here, not just due to the U-God guest verse, fusing solid bars with classic East Coast production. NYC duo Cannibal Ox return with their first album in 14 years, sounding like we’d hope Wu would sound like in 2015. Blade: Art Of The Ox, lifted from Blade Of The Ronin, is a cruisey posse cut, hitting the mark many times over, especially with a Chapelle’s Show reference in the opening verse.
