#TURNDAFUCUP

#TURNDAFUCUP represents a significant moment in the Onyx discography, arriving in 2014 as a statement of continued relevance in the hardcore rap subgenre. Produced largely by the German production team Snowgoons, the album marries the group's signature Queens-bred aggression with the heavy, orchestral, and often dark boom bap style associated with the Snowgoons' underground aesthetic. This collaboration results in a sound that is arguably more polished than their early nineties output but significantly more abrasive and loud. The album features 14 tracks, including updated 2014 versions of their most famous hits, 'Slam' and 'Last Dayz,' which serve to contextualize their legacy within this new, harder sonic framework. Critically, the album was noted for its refusal to mellow with age, maintaining the 'mad face' energy that defined their debut while embracing the higher fidelity and distorted textures of 2010s underground hip-hop.
