So… we talked a lot about the infamous Drake\/Kendrick Lamar beef last year since it was the<\/em> thing that everybody was talking about, but let’s not forget that while Kendrick managed to humiliate Drake to both critical and commercial acclaim, Pusha T cast the first stone in Drake’s weakened armor.<\/p>\n

But enough talking about Drake… for now.<\/p>\n

So, you remember Clipse? The rap duo of Pusha T and Malice (or No Malice)? Remember such classics as “Grindin'”, “What Happen To That Boy?” and “Mr. Me Too”? Yeah, you couldn’t escape hearing that beat during the mid-2000s. Long story short, the duo split in 2010, and we know that Malice turned into No Malice and found religion. Then of course there was Pusha T’s solo career where he took off from being signed to G.O.O.D Music with Kanye West, wound up becoming President of the company, went through his ownn beef with Drake where he came out the victor no matter how people spin it, and then exited out of G.O.O.D Music because… well, guess.<\/p>\n

There have been rumors of a Clipse reunion ever since Malice appeared on “I Pray For You,” a track from Pusha T’s last album It’s Almost Dry<\/em>,\u00a0 and now 16 years since Clipse’s last album, that reunion came true!\u00a0 It was announced on May 29th that we were getting a new Clipse album, and judging from the singles “Ace Trumpets” and “So Be It,” we were gonna be in for some great hip-hop coming from these two… well okay not just these two. Pharrell produced the whole album (as it was recorded in Louis Vuitton HQ in Paris), and we got an interesting set of features like Tyler The Creator, Nas, Stove God Cooks and one certain feature that I’ll leave blank right now.<\/p>\n

So, did this album live up to the hype or was it ‘CULTURALLY INAPPOPRIATE?’<\/p>\n

Having listening to it a few times now, I gotta say that this is stellar. Fantastic, even. Like something that’ll bring a tear to your eye.<\/p>\n
