Damn. This nigga just redid the whole cuban linx album.

Im sure you brand new niggas wont pick up on it but he kept the same rhyme pattern as on the original purple tape and even used the same rhyme schemes but with different words.

Ortiz is fuckin ill for real. The real niggas pay homage to the classics. They dont sit back and call the pioneers "old heads". This is a young cat who knows his history right here. Putting a new flavor to these classic RZA beats from the mafioso era.

Best remix joint Ive heard in a long long time.

Through the lights cameras & action glamour glitter & gold/
I unfold the scroll plant seeds to stampede the globe/
When Im deceased/ By then the beast arise like yeast/
To conquer peace/ leavin savages to roam in the streets

Nas verse on this album was one of his best ever.

Live on the run, police payin' me to give 'em my gun
Tricked the system wit' the wisdom that imprisoned my son
Smoke a gold leaf, I hold heat, nonchalantly
I'm raunchy, shit I do is real and never haunts me, while
Funny style niggas roam in a pile
Booster heads profile on the bus to Riker's Isle
Holdin' weed inside they pussy wit' they minds on the pretty things in life
Props is a true thugs wife
It's like a cycle, niggas come home, some'll go in
Do a bid, come back, and do the same shit again
From the womb to the tomb, presume the unpredictable
Guns salute life, rapidly, that's the ritual

One of the hottest guest 16's EVER!!!

I'm from Detroit, and real hot underground rappers are kinda hard to come by. I first heard Ortiz on China White w/G Rap and been checkin' ever since. Dude is not just sick, he's fatal. Is it just me, or did he get the best of one of the best ever on Ghetto (from the Nigger Tape)?
