Return of the Bad Guy Pt. 1

Forty-three tracks of raw mixtape energy. A gritty, unpolished collection of disses and freestyles that captures the aggressive street spirit of 2009 hip-hop.

February 10, 2009

A bunker-like, combative claustrophobia drives this sprawling forty-three-track offensive, trading any hint of major-label polish for a barrage of raw loops and unfiltered industry warfare.
