lehigh villians the awaking MIXTAPE REVIEW

It isnt often when i come across a group of talent local emcees i havent heard of, but 6 years after there first mixtape me and most of the lehigh valley are finally hearing of lehigh villains. Consisting of easton natives lokey7 zen and sosa lehigh villains bring a unique sound to the valley. Filled with conspiracy theory's, intelligence, and some of the most complex bars ive heard in a minute the awakening is a breath of fresh air from the normal basic mother goose style trash i receive on a daily. The mixtape starts off with the epic underground track "knock knock" that has a vey laid back violin sampled beat with 3 verses filled with some of the slickest woven multis ive heard in a minute. "holding the bible as my torch, make you abort your mission force hit you with the rhythm audible was written in ancient scripture i use your blood to paint the picture with change the depiction no intermission when i initiate the crippling envisioning the diminishing of the devils grin" lokey7 spits with perfect delivery. there arent two many other rappers spitting this complex and n the lehIgh valley alone there are only 2 more who are spitting on this level. The rest of the lv villains are right up there on the complexity level in the same track sosa spits with a gritty hard fitting punchline styled delivery and dj zen mixes both with a solid verse.with lyrics this ill you'd expect them to tame down a little witch doesnt happen. Even when they shitch up there delivery scheme they pull it off flawless, on tracks like devils advocate when the beats a little more upbeat they keep there delivery on point not straying from the beat alot of emcees have nowadays. sosa comes hard and on point on this track "the most amazing Caucasian alien affiliation facing the caged the nation of Satan" Alot of there lyrics have a dark atheist styled tone but thats how they are there conspiracy theorist who need to be shown facts to belive. each rapper holds there own all showing complex styles of multi use zen one shines his best on the track rise up "contemplating my fate in a meditative state as i open my shockwaves to keep my back staight. This album has alot of gritty streat tales lyrical assaults but one of my favrioe tracks is when there in story telling mode on the track "life's lessons" when they spit on there upbrining and what caused there downfall. On a lyrical level there flawless, beat selection in supburd the only flaw i can see is the vocal chorous,s the chick can sing just it strays off beat a little besides that this has to be one of the top 3 relases in the 610 this year.
