1997 was the year when this little gem was born. Claw crafted the dark beat where himself, Aya and MJB laid down some serious verbal warfare. This track will never get old to me. The beat is sinister and the lyrics are the type that make you want to rewind or read them as liner notes. Definitely a highlight of the Universal Sounds collective.
Notable Quotes:
"Hip Hop Temple desecration/ So I bring terror like the book of Revelation/ Emcees throughout the nation/ Just heed me when I warn/ Or face shame and scorn/ Wish you were never born/ In your side I'll be the thorn" - Aya Da Storm
"Stringent contingents/ Continue to put the rent through/ But some sit for self and try to eat the whole menu/ Sights I send to/ Don't even try the evil that men do/ I'm way ahead of you/ I correspond with men who bend you" - MJB
"I curse the track - disperse my rhyme verse/ I be the first - you be the worst/ I'm doing work/ My style lurks and creeps on emcees that sleep/ It's deep - I play for keeps and the keeps are steep" - Claw
