Thanks to the narrative thread, the album flows with great cohesion. Sounds crazy right? But it works вЂ“ producer Adrain Younge goes all out here, integrating a wall of different soundscapes as the musical backdrop, merging iconic spaghetti Western film music from the likes of Ennio Morricone with haunting opera singing and 70вЂ™s soul & blaxploitation vibes featuring thick bass lines and organs.

His remains are melted in vinyl and pressed into a dozen LPs that, when played, resurrect him as the Ghostface Killah, a force for revenge incarnate. He is an enforcer for the DeLuca crime family, who is murdered by his former employers after striking out on his own and falling in love with the kingpinвЂ™s daughter. The albumвЂ™s story is set in 1960s Italy featuring an alter ego character of Ghostface Killah, Tony Starks. Twelve Reasons To DieВ is a concept album with the following central theme/narrative: the album serves as the score to a fictive vintage Italian horror film. Ghostface Killah & Adrian Younge - Twelve Reasons To Die (2013) Eclectically musical as always, How I Got OverВ is another Roots winner.Дў47. Standout tracks include вЂњNow or NeverвЂќ (featuring Phonte and Dice Raw), вЂњDear God 2.0вЂќ (featuring Monsters of Folk), the title track вЂњHow I Got OverвЂќ (featuring Dice Raw). The featured artists deliver to вЂ“ itвЂ™s especially nice to hear the likes of Blu and Phonte on a Roots album, also good to see an appearance by Dice Raw. Black Thought is good as ever, bringing out his deepest thoughts and observations. At least five of their albums are near-flawless вЂ“ Illadelph HalflifeВ (1996), Things Fall ApartВ (1999), Game TheoryВ (2006), Rising DownВ (2008) and UndunВ (2011) вЂ“ and How I Got OverВ definitely belongs up there with the RootsвЂ™ best as well.

Their only disappointing effort is their eleventh album And Then You Shoot Your CousinВ (2014), their previous ten albums are all simply excellent. The legendary Roots crew can boast one of the most consistent and most impressive catalogs in Hip Hop, ever.
