January 4, 2006Longshot Civil War Pt. 2(EV Productions/ Risky Bizzness). 4 ribs-smacks of flava. It’s no wonder why Longshot has been dubbed the hardest working emcee in Windy City. For his third release Civil War Pt. 2, the rapper doesn’t pull any punches and in fact drops his most ambitious work to date. Civil War Pt. 2 is a 30-track album with guest appearances from over 30 of Chicago’s best independent artists, providing an authentic survey of Chi-town’s underground hip hop scene. Longshot worked with every crew in the city and each track is regionally representative from Diverse and the Molemen producers Panik and PNS on the Northside, Thaione Davis and Rubberoom’s Lumba from the Southside, Psalm One and Earmint from the Westside and everyone in between. Longshot began the Civil War concept in 2004 with Pt. 1, a mixtape with the goal of bringing together all of Chicago’s independent emcees and producers. With Pt. 2 he pulls it off, hopefully catapulting Chicago’s underground hip hop scene into the mainstream. The release also features a DVD of studio sessions, interviews, live performance snippets and more. -Will Jordan http://ribmag.com/ribviews.html |
