BadBadNotGood & Ghostface Killah - Sour Soul

1LP Vinyl - LEX103LP

Toronto jazz-funk dons BADBADNOTGOOD are a good fit, ably replicating the kind of gritty ’70s pulp-paperback breaks Ghostface has long favored. But Sour Soul could have every musician who ever played with the J.B.’s backing him up and it still wouldn’t obscure the fact that he’s slacking on the mic. His voice is still his, and it’s difficult if not impossible for Ghostface to actually sound bored. But if you gravitated to DOOM team-up "Ray Gun" just because "Angels was hot" and still hold out hope that Swift & Changeable will see light of day, the disappointment will hit hard: "Back in black, it’s your local superhero from the hood/ Ironman Starks got the good/ Not that good good like Snoop/ I bulletproofed the coupe/ Polished up the suit and gathered the troops." He goes on to make a Matrix reference in the year 2015 and states "Ain’t a bird or a plane, it’s a ghost on the mic." A ghost of himself, maybe.
