About Me

Either you like 50 or The Sugar Hill gang, Hip- Hop is now at the forefront of marketability, Have the lyrics and flow of Slick rick and Rakim, been silenced by the gun shots on every hood mixtape, have we become too commercial, Some say yes. I say that change is inevitable, and in an ever changing world where music is the reflection of our lives, there is nowhere else to go but Forward! This is a Forum where we will post and discuss all fascists of Hip-Hop, Also we will feature any Unsigned artists, IF you want to be judged by your peers this is where it can happen Sincerely Hip-Hop(ICU)

TO WU OR NOT TO WU?

Chances are a above average rapper will drop a solid album or two or three, some good, some not so good, and call it a career. When it comes to Ghostface Killah, the odds are a bit better. Dennis Coles, party member of that band of merry rappers calling themselves the Wu-Tang Clan, has dropped multiple classics (Ironman, Supreme Clientele, and don’t forget the guest starring role on Raekwon’s Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…). Add to that exceptional albums like Fishscale and The Pretty Toney Album, and Tony Starks sports one of the strongest musical catalogs in Hip-Hop.

Whether his latest venture achieves the renowned status of his early masterpieces is a matter of time. Don't bet against him, though. While the Clan’s once impregnable armor has been nicked by infighting, lack of focus and at times plain subpar material, Ghost Deini has remained consistent enough to at times single handedly keep the Clan's iron flag waving. Dropping heater after heater, whether it be his own solo work, via scene stealinf guest spots or sharing the mic with his Theodore Unit squad, Ghost never fails to get busy. Now with a lucky seventh album added to the discography, The Big Doe Rehab, we take a look back at some of Ghostface’s winning plays.
