Gangrene: Gutter Water (Decon, 11/23/10)
Gangrene: “Chain Swinging”
[audio:http://alarm-magazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Gangrene_Chain_Swinging.mp3|titles=Gangrene: “Chain Swinging”]Gangrene is the new hip-hop duo of The Alchemist and Oh No, each an esteemed producer-slash-rapper. Gutter Water is their first collaboration, and it calls upon a number of friends and guest MCs too, including Raekwon, Evidence, and Planet Asia.
The material has ample rawness, with hard-hitting beats and rhymes, but there’s an underlying sophistication, whether from string, piano, and flute samples or from quick references to conspiracy theories.
