Thanks for posting. Can't wait for this. Actually one of the greatest rap groups ever.
Was listening to the song Gotham this week, what a banger.
Listened to the starts of both jams. Both sounded well good. Doesn't sound like el-p tho. He's no longer involved?
Anytime, my g! Doing what I can to spread the word. I'm also ecstatic for the album. Looking forward to hearing my kin Vordul work his magic on this especially. Some of his material was actually recorded at my crib. Cannibal Ox is my all time favorite Hip Hop group, and Vordul my all time favorite MC/lyricist in general. Gotham is a classic. Bill Cosmiq captured the immersive, atmospheric style of Cannibal Ox, and added a touch of utopia on that joint.Quote:

Bill Cosmiq has been holding down the production end of Cannibal Ox since 2013, and produced their 2015 sophomore album "Blade of the Ronin."Quote:

I feel like I could make some beats for Can Ox actually.
It would be fantastic to hear an Ox & El-P reunion, he's kind of synonymous with the group and a genius producer. I saw that Vast was trying to reach out to El on twitter but I don't know if El even saw that.
Blade of the Ronin was a dope follow up and very good in its own right. It got some shine on here but I had expected more buzz around it on other places too
