UFam's album, The War On Hip Hop, is a bold and provocative piece of work that challenges the very foundations of the genre. With its hard-hitting beats and incisive lyrics, the album takes aim at the commercialization and commodification of hip hop, calling for a return to the raw, authentic sound that made the genre so powerful in the first place.
From the opening track, "Revolutionary," UFam sets the tone for the album with a fierce and uncompromising message. The group's MCs trade verses over a pulsing beat, calling out the corporate interests and cultural appropriation that have diluted the essence of hip hop.
Throughout the album, UFam's production is top-notch, with intricate layering and sampling that keeps the listener engaged and energized. The group's lyricism is equally impressive, with clever wordplay and insightful social commentary that never feels preachy or heavy-handed.
Standout tracks include "The Art of War," a blistering takedown of the music industry's exploitation of hip hop culture, and "Real Talk," a reflective meditation on the personal struggles and triumphs of the group's members.
