Apollo Kids

Ghostface Killah

High-velocity street pulp delivered over dusty 70s soul loops. A lean, aggressive return to the gritty Wu-Tang aesthetic after a detour into R&B.

December 20, 2010

Find on Amazon

A relentless, confrontational energy with moments of exhausted tenderness and street-level nostalgia.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive entrance of the horns on 'Purified Thoughts' that immediately signals a return to form.
The relentless, breathless flow on '2getha Baby' where the beat feels like it's struggling to keep up with the rhymes.
The cinematic, dark guitar lick on 'Black Tequila' that creates a high-stakes noir atmosphere.
