Rating: NN


I fell asleep listening to Brutality Part 1 and dreamt I smashed a good friend’s skull open with a broomstick on the set of a Neptunes video shoot. I woke up sweating – OK, crying – with a guilty knot in my small intestine. This ultraviolent misogynist horrorcore rap album makes G-Unit’s “Ooh, look at us, we’ve been shot so much we’re immune to bullets” bullshit sound like gentle forest music. Lispy white rapper/label CEO/porn guru Necro and dawgs Ill Bill and Goretex of Non-Phixion spew toxic rhymes in “the language of anguish” about what they’ll do to you, over gothic Mobb Deep-ish production. If you’re sadomasochistic enough, this could be your joint. But, then again, so could tattooing yourself with a knife you heated on the stove.
