9th Wonder "Zion III" (Instrumental Album)


It's been a long time since 9th Wonder won over the nation with his production skills as a part of Little Brother. His soulful samples and electrifying percussions paint pictures before any given rapper begins laying down their lyrics on the beat. That's why when 9th comes through with an instrumental project, the world rejoices. Last December, 9th dropped off Zion II, and now he's returned with a third entry into the series. King Draft and Swank are the only two featured artists on the project, which is amazing because the album spans 42 tracks. Some of the instrumentals are shorter than you'd like, but the entire album pulls together nicely to create a retro aura that will light up your speakers. - HNHH. I'm a week or two late on this, but Happy New Year everybody!
