Canibus - Melatonin Magik REVIEW

THE LYRICAL GENIUS RETURNS!!!





Canibus has always been one of my Top Ten MCs, this recent effort KEEPS him in my Top Ten!
Canibus is a rarely understood MC who's Vocabulary is about as thick as the fucking Grand Canyon. His delivery is VICIOUS, exploiting every known Hip Hop Songwriter Code in the book.

Melatonin Majik appears to pick up where 2000 B.C. left off and is done so Tastefully. Only Slaves D.R.E.A.M. is my favorite cut on the album and Post Traumatic WarLab Stress is AMAZING as well. When you hear a Canibus CD you literally feel like you are a student in The Ancient Mystery Schools. There is so much Esoteric knowledge flying at you the brain can barely process it all.
There isn't a single dull moment on this entire LP and The Lyrics NEVER faulter or suffer.
His production is finally on the same level of his Lyrics. Many critics blasted on him before, but what the hell could they possibly find wrong about this LP?

Air Strike (Pop Killer) is a precise Shot at Eminem featuring D-12 and DZK and yes u read it right, D-12!
it seems DZK set up D-12 to get on this song and then made it sound like they were going at Eminem! There is no other Diss record in history that goes to that level! This is the hottest Canibus beef track since Second Round Knock Out!

DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS! Hip Hop Heads will be purely satisfied with this release from the Lyrical Ripper.

CONCLUSION:
Lyrics = A+
Production = A
Replayability Level= 9.5
Overall= A

GO COP THIS LP RIGHT NOW!!! Never heard of Canibus? You better wake the fuck up and take lessons from this Hip Hop Veteran.
