Clipse | Feature Artist

The comeback record of the decade.

The duo returned with an album that surpassed all expectations with Pharrell production, KAWS artwork, and Louis Vuitton collaborations.

It’s got the coke bars and the luxury, as expected, but also now the tragedy and status. This isn’t Clipse as dealers, but industry veterans reflecting on loss, beef and the standing they hold. But it was worth the 16-year wait. Every feature, every beat, every track delivers.

Each track here is its own beast. Everybody is bound to have favourites, but it’s hard to pick from ‘By The Grace of God’ to ‘M.T.B.T.T.F’ and ‘So Be It’. This is AAA entertainment. Stevie Wonder, John Legend, Kendrick Lamar, Tyler the Creator, Nas and Stove God Cooks as a guest list alone should indicate the level of quality present.

Track after track just delivers in spades. Straight off the bat, ‘The Bird’s Don’t Sing’ is crushing with the way Pusha T and Malice explore the loss of their parents in remembering their last conversations with them and tributing them as the first matter of business. And that’s before jumping straight into ‘Chains and Whips’ with Kendrick, which is by far the most chilling track as they outright threaten the competition for four minutes.

This surpasses ‘Till the Caskets Drops’ by a country mile and places it up there with ‘Hell Hath No Fury’ and ‘Lord Willin’ in the big three classics the duo has graced us with.

And there’s nothing else to say. Another classic for the group and another win for the art.

Essential listening.

‘Let God Sort Em Out’ is available now in the Store.
