COP THE ALBUMS!!!!!!
http://www.myspace.com/lone_ninja
If the ninja samples presumably taken from a '70s pulp ninjitsu film seem highly derivative of the Wu-Tang Clan (and they obviously are), listeners will be surprised to find that Lone Ninja is much more DOOM than Dirt McGirt. The swordplay and dojo references are not to be taken metaphorically as Lone Ninja is apparently quite self-serious about his title, never really stepping out of character on "Covert Operative." That being said, the concept is never played for humor (as we'd expect from DOOM), so those with no interest in hearing a grown man string multi-syllable rhymes together about the life of a modern day ninja, pay no heed.

As an emcee, Lone Ninja has a strong vocabulary (including various ninja rhetoric) and an impressive rhyme scheme nailed down. However, his leisurely, monotone flow is far from engaging, and with only a single guest feature on the eight-track EP, it doesn't take long to grow old. It's not surprising, then, that the highlights of the record come early. On "Lingual Ninjitsu," Lone Ninja goes off:

"Spark the fuse, when nigga blaze I'm a raging inferno
My soul, you cannot phase 'cause its age is eternal
Turn the page in the journal, learn that I'm a brazen colonel
Who's not afraid to raid, so this may concern you
Invade your circle, sabotage your plans
Your squad disbands, your mans went as far as he can
Your aura's a sham, I'm the truth revealed
I'm a brute you should salute for real, ruthless and ill"

  • I think no one in the rap game can come close to Twin Perils... not even Canibus.

    These dudes are that NEXT LEVEL of rhyming alot of people thought would never come.

    I listen to PERIL's albums from beginning to end, every song is hot.

    They rhyme like no one... not even close.

  • I wanna hear music with Lone Ninja, June Marx, and Canibus now that would be something. not a remix either. I wonder if they have ever met?

  • sickkk!
