GanGrene (ALC and OHNO) New LP
Sauced on exotic inebriates, the West Coast producer/emcees The Alchemist and Oh No will release their second grimy Gangrene collaboration on January 24th. The new dose, Vodka & Ayahausca, is a follow-up to last year’s gritty debut Gutter Water. Both Al &Oh again split their time between composing dense, sample-based landscapes micro-dotted with tales of psychotropia. While Ayahuasca (a natural hallucinogenic brew containing DMT) may not be a term familiar to the palette of the average rap consumer, Gangrene is soon to change all that.
The album boasts choice co-pilots; Kool G Rap goes in on “Gladiator Music”, Prodigy (of Mobb Deep) unloads on the lead single “DumpTruck” (coming Nov. 21st), and the appropriately dilated ally Evidence joins Roc C on the heavy-lidded, “Dark Shades”. In addition, Greneberg EP collaborator Roc Marciano laces the suggestive “Drink Up”, a welcome addition to the kaleidoscopic head-trip.
