In case you missed it, Ghostface Killah's album with Adrian Younge, 12 Reasons To Die, released today on Soul Temple Records. The LP tells the story of a Ghostface who is betrayed by the Delucas crime family and then seeks revenge post-mortem. It's the kind of full-length album storytelling that reminds us of a post-36 Chambers Wu-Tang solo effort. Executive produced by RZA, 12 Reasons finds a Ghostface lyrically comfortable within Younge's sparse and sometimes spooky soundtrack-like arrangements. Cop it for yourself on Soul Temple Records.
