Fifty-word review

The Martyr

7.6 out of 10

The Martyr is filled with grand, dramatic beats backing grand, dramatic themes, often prefaced by grand, dramatic sermons; even the title is dramatic. This would be overwhelming if not for Immortal Technique’s solid, rugged flow and a bevy of heavy-hitting guest spots. Occupy Wall Street has its new anthem!

Reminds us of Canibus, Killer Mike without the slow jams, conspiracy theories
