UnsungHipHop.com - Always known
for tackling controversial topic matter, the group’s sophomore project, Masters Of The Dark Arts, (which
recently was a top 100 debut on the Billboard Charts) finds them once again in
torch-bearing mode, addressing subjects that most artists shy away from as ILL
BILL illustrates “as conceptually
and musically dark as this album appears to be, there's also a flip side layer
to it that you may not notice until you listen to it a few times. Masters Of The Dark Arts is a storm
before the calm and a celebration of the good things in life that can only be
achieved by walking directly into the heart of darkness and facing your inner
demons head on."
While the
group’s roster has been trimmed slightly due to Everlast having to leave the
group (for personal reasons), La Coka Nostra returns re-invigorated “I think we
approached Masters Of The Dark Arts with a chip
on our shoulder and really took it back to our original mission of hardcore
Hip-Hop amidst all the circus bullshit that is so prevalent in the current
landscape of the genre. We are aware of the perception that somehow the group
has suffered a loss we can’t recover from and in response we made an album that
is the most conceptually focused and hardest hitting soundscape in the group’s
history” Slaine asserts.
