OK. So, there’s a song on here called “Rhyme Room” that involves host Yelawolf going off, as he often does, after his guests Raekwon and Killer Mike offer up verses that impress even by their standards, and he comfortably holds his own. This is the sort of brilliance the grunged-out country boy has been displaying for the last five years in an oddly inconspicuous fashion. He has beats (provided here by WillPower), he’s a blasted hook-machine, backed by some Eminem dude, and, though his name is out there, he’s still stuck with that sort of under-card status. Whatever though, here’s this tape. Shit is tight.
