This is the 2nd collaborative EP between Atlanta, Georgia emcee Jay NiCE alongside local Dump Gawd himself Tha God Fahim. Both of whom have worked with each other countless times in the past several years, teaming up for the collab album Strictly 4 My D.U.M.P.E.R.Z. during the spring of 2018 & the Bloodspiller EP around Halloween time 2 & a half years ago. Jay was on half of Dump Gawd: Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap 11 last month hours prior of the Endeavor-owned TKO Group Holdings division WWE acquiring Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA) from the Peña–Roldán family at the start of WrestleMania XLI weekend in response their Tony Khan-owned competitors All Elite Wrestling (AEW) & Ring of Honor Wrestling (ROH) both being involved with this year’s annual Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), 新日本プロレス (NJPW) & Revolution Pro Wrestling (RPW) co-promoted event Fantastica Mania on June 20 held at La Catedral de la Lucha Libre Arena México. Little did we know they would make the 12th entry of the saga a full collaborative effort between the pair with Nicholas Craven on production.
“Ultimate Spider” was a drumless 3-minute hardcore intro referencing Dr. Octopus from The Walt Disney Company subsidiary Marvel-owned Spider-Man franchise whereas “Tha Uppercut” continues the strip the drums even more including a line referring to the Warner Bros. Discovery subsidiary Cartoon Network-owned PowerPuff Girls franchise.
The only Fahim solo cut “Nickleplated Temptations” doesn’t miss by any means soulfully showing off his quintessential pen while “Tha Company” dustily mentions Eric Cartman from the timeless Paramount Skydance Corporation-owned Comedy Central series South Park ahead of the upcoming 27th season finally premiering in July.
“Black Mamba” if you couldn’t tell by the name homages the late Los Angeles Lakers icon & my 2nd favorite basketball player of all-time Kobe Bryant behind Michael Jordan while maintaining a boom bap vibe leading into the darker “Embers” makes the world burn with their respective outlooks on rap & lastly “Alarm” finishing by hopping over horns taking more jabs at their opposition.
Strictly 4 My D.U.M.P.E.R.Z. & Bloodspiller both have their individual standouts such as “B2G$” & “Rock Lava” respectively, but Dump Gawd: Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap 12 leans heavier between Jay & Fahim’s chemistry as the predecessor last month teased that ends with what’s my new favorite collaborative effort of the 3 they’ve done. Craven’s production draws from drumless, boom bap & chipmunk soul for both Atlanta spitters to lay out hardcore lyricism for approximately 14 minutes.
Score: 8/10
