Mountain Brothers "Triple Crown" (Vinyl 2XLP) |
||||||||||||
|
Triple Crown is the sound of the trio, Mountain Brothers, asserting their gritty East Coast roots. On "Yes Yes," Styles traces his love affair with hip-hop, telling us that "Like Common I used to love her, but then we spent some time apart." Beatwise, Triple Crown treads a well-worn landscape of jazz loops, synth stabs and mad scratches, an appropriately grim foundation for the MBs' harsh battle floetry. Put 'em up.
