Album:Slaughterhouse
Release Date: 8/11/2009

review:
In a time where hip-hop appears to be in a similar recession that our economy is entrenched in, four emcees have banded together to form a rap supergroup like none other. All four emcees have had their fair share of major label love. All four have also been written off (with the exception of the Young Ortiz) after their label mishaps, only to rise like the phoenix and utilize the internet to build massive cult followings.

You probably know them individually, but this is about getting to know Slaughterhouse as a collective.

Joe budden was working on a song for his halfway house album and enlisted the services of Crooked I, Joell Ortiz and Royce Da 5’9" for a song called "the Leak." The song was well received and because of the great chemistry the four had on the song they decided to form a rap super-group.

If you care about talent being brought back to the forefront of hip-hop, then you should care about Slaughterhouse. There are no gimmicks, no song with an accompanying dance, none of that. It’s all about lyrical content. If that’s what you value as a fan, that’s what these four emcees give you.
