Synopsis

Product Description

Black Patch War is a 7-track EP by Seattle hiphop mainstays Common Market (RA Scion on the rhymes, Sabzi of Blue Scholars on the beats). Offered as the first official follow-up to the successful eponymous debut album, Black Patch War, released on the group's own Massline Media, is a concept project intended to pave the way, stylistically, for the highly anticipated Tobacco Road, slated for release in September. With pointed and pertinent social commentary atop a soul-stirring soundscape of hard-hitting beats, Black Patch War is genuine Common Market. While the EP serves well as a segue into the band's future, it solidifies their position as legitimate contenders for the national spotlight in the hiphop scene.

CD Reviews

Real Music. Making Seattle Proud.

Rashad Jenkins | Seattle, WA | 08/05/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I am a native of Seattle and honestly I can say that I am proud of Ra Scion and Sabzi for coming together to make a classic music once again. As always Sabs on the beats, and they are wonderful. They really sound polished and for a dude to experiment with sampling himself, he is gifted at mastering it. Ra Scion's flow is amazing as it is his more clear and conscious rhymes since the debut. Bring on Tobacco Road!!!!"

Pure Fiyyah!

"Going to keep this short but sweet, similar to the CD ; RA Scion sounds just as good as ever with heavily inspiring & deep lyricism laced over some of the best sabzi beats I've heard!! theyre just ridiculous!

The EP has a nice contast with some seriously "bangin' layered tracks (Black Patch War, His Eminence & Trouble is) whilst also providing some laid back yet groovy reflective tracks (bonanza).

Basically, this is some of the most refreshing music I have heard in a long while and is a must for those who appreciate pure thought provoking music. Whilst it may be short, every second is quality, satisfying hip hop. GET THIS!!!
