Copywrite - The Last Supper
Underground Hip Hop veteran and esteemed lyricist, Copywrite enlists indie golden age emcees & producers from his early Rawkus, Eastern Conference & Fondle âEm Records days with his seventh studio album, âThe Last Supperâ.
The album boasts thirteen tracks bringing back that early 2000âs Weathermen feel. DJ Mighty Mi & Cop link back up for a few songs that are Gauranteed to tide heads over until their joint EP drops later this year. The Juggaknotâs resident monster, Breeze Brewin also shows up alongside underground champion Bobbito Garcia over a banger by Swab who handles a good portion of the albums tracks and the outcome is pure 89-tek-9 nostalgia reminiscent of the WKCR hey days. The always honest and lyrical depth of Atmosphereâs Slug compliments Copyâs tales of lost ones & pain over the acculative years on âTurn the Pageâ. Another stand out is the track âGreen Screenâ where Copy drops bars like, âI spread rumors people heard Sh** about / tat my name on my d*** and put words in your mouthâ over a classic Evidence banger. The water proof emcee shows up alongside Niko Is and Bless Picasso for âDiamond Bukowskiâ and the outcome is nothing short of spectacular. Thereâs a surprise guest from the Weathermen days that I was asked not to disclose for this write up but the WM core fans are going to lose their minds. This is Copyâs best work if you ask me. The songs are all super dense and packed with effortless detail that all require several listens to fully digest.
Twenty years of being one of independent rapâs elite shines on Pete Nelsonâs magnum opus, âT.H.E. Last Supperâ.
To the hardcore hip hoppers,
bon appétit
