As the millennium approached, I was way into the whole paranoid illuminati rapper shit that was coming from groups like Killa Army and Jedi Mind Tricks and Scienz of Life. The problem is, this type of rap is very rapid-fire linguistically, which adds to the aura of paranoia, and when you slow it down, something is lost. The first Scienz of Life CD I dug a bunch, and I think they've still put out like four or five others in that mass of indie undie hip hop that's impossible to follow fully because it's so immense and it takes me like two days to steal one song off the stupid internet. "Scienz of Life", the self-titled single, is still a sweet indie paranoid-ass song to play when I feel like hunkering down in the camper with a few rails of shit-crank and get all jeeby-minded one night.
