iativos I know I'm a bit late to the game, but I discovered this project earlier this year in January. I was a bit hesitant to check it out at first, due to the album cover picture, title, and bizarre band name. But I'm really glad I did. There isn't a dull moment on this whole thing, and there's something to chew on in each lyric spat. I don't regret checking these guys out. They've opened my mind up to a whole new world of art, music, and Hip-Hop that I was only somewhat aware of existed previously Favorite track: Falling Out The Sky featuring Earl Sweatshirt.

Deathblow88 The David Lynch sample on Falling Out the Sky is the only explanation this album needs. Favorite track: Sir Benni Miles.

J.L. Moultrie This is straight fire on every level; fearless, non conformist Hip-Hop. Favorite track: Chicharrones featuring Quelle Chris.

about

Haram is a mercurial collaboration between incendiary rap duo Armand Hammer, and living legend The Alchemist. For the first time ELUCID and billy woods have crafted an album with a single producer and the result is extraordinary. With their unmatched penchant for stirring imagery and incisive storytelling, the two rappers dive into an ocean of Alchemist’s creation: warmly inviting on the surface, black and bone-crushingly cold at depth. Haram is a collection of the profane and the pure; a reminder that that which is forbidden is also sacrosanct.

The artists are joined by their friends and fellow travelers on this journey. KAYANA’s golden voice upps the wattage on “Black Sunlight,” while Fielded’s sultry alto gets chopped and screwed on “Aubergine”. Earl Sweatshirt makes a sun-soaked appearance, while Curly Castro and Amani mix like ice and salt on Brooklyn sidewalks and Quelle Chris, as always, finds a pocket all his own. Still, there is a natural rapport that belies the New York-to-Los Angeles-and-back nature of the project, allowing Haram to be more than the sum of its parts, however impressive those parts may be. This isn’t just the genre’s most insistent contemporary voices paired with arguably its best producer. This is when you buy a beautiful house only to discover, hidden behind a heavy bookcase, a stairway twisting up and away into the darkness.
