"I'm the ghetto Doctor Ruth!"

After a ridiculously dry year where even the mediocre-to-good TI's 'KING' stood as the lone contender for rap record of the year, it seems we're now hit with a flood of quality releases as the year comes to a close. Clipse and Jeezy are a case in point, but now we have the new Project Pat and Ghostface.

Project Pat has always been an unofficial member of Three 6 Mafia and is actually the brother of founding member Juicy J. To me, Project Pat actually sounds like a cross between Juicy and other founding Three 6'er DJ Paul. Pat also lives in Three 6's newly bought mansion in California - their roots always remain intact though, and their Hypnotize Minds label and production crew (consisting of J and DJ Paul) always scream Memphis. Project Pat's new record "Crook By Da Book" has this stamp all over it, my favourite example being "What Money Do", found below.

The new Ghostface, More Fish, sometimes seems more like a mixtape than a well thought out full length record, but the individual tracks are good enough that it's not too much of an issue. Below is the Redman and Shawn Wiggs (Theodore Unit) assisted "Greedy Bitches".

i really like that project pat song, I suppose i had kind of written off as a 3-6 underling, i think his flow gets a little tired after a while, but i like how fun this song is, and the beat is really excellent, especially how it chnges up for the first two verses. I'm not crazy about ghostface, he's a great mc, and has vicious flow, but it just doesn't really appeal to me. He just seems to serious, save the seriousness for the sage francises (eeegccchhk). Though I realize this song isn't serious, he just comes across as a real downer, at least to me.
