Killer Mike’s two previous outings, the excellent I Pledge Allegiance to the Grind, Parts I and II brimmed with energy, passion and urgency. On Underground Atlanta, Mike’s fire-spitting delivery has the intensity of a second-hand lighter, and the army of mediocre rappers crowding the two discs extinguish any remaining flame.

Hey Colin,
Great review for a great show. Fantastic photos as well, and I was wondering what the chances were of getting a couple non-watermarked files so I could print them as a gift for someone? I’d understand if you’d rather not, but figured it wouldn’t hurt to ask.
Thanks either way, and keep up the good work.

Agreed. What I really liked about it was the acts actually complemented each other, which I feel is a rarity these days. If more shows were put together with respect to how they might sound one after another, I think fans would really appreciate it!

that bill was unreal! whoever set that up deserves a party thrown in their honor or at the very least a promotion.

Review is spot on! I, too, was lucky enough to see this trio of incredible bands and came away from the night feeling thoroughly pumped!!

well said Josh, the over-over production got to this disk, and one wonders the size of the recording room to fit in the “featuring” guests
