Title: Kurupt, Killah Priest, Ras Kass and Canibus reunite as 4 Horsemen
Post by: MOB on January 20, 2010, 04:19:04 PM
Wu Tang A&R and Executive Producer of Canibus’s Melatonin Magik, M80, took a time out between knocking back shots to have Kurupt announce the reformation of The 4 Horsemen, a group consisting of himself, Killah Priest, Ras Kass and Canibus.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy they’re reuniting and hopefully going to drop an album, but does anyone else feel like this is only happening because Slaughterhouse has proved the formula is successful in today’s Hip-Hop world?

44,000 units moved as far as I know, pretty good for an independent album. Plus two videos that received rotation on MTV.

Nationwide and European tour. I wouldn't call that a flop.

44,000 is actually pretty decent numbers in this climate of illegal downloads. Slaughterhouse did pretty well, and profit aside, it definitely raised the profile of all the individual emcees in the group.

I always thought the 4 Horsemen collabo was a strange mix of emcees. Killah Priest and Canibus and then Kurupt and Ras Kass are like chalk and cheese. If they get it together an album could be fire though.

you guys are kidding yourselves, 44,000 is terrible for the amount of buildup and promo these guys did before the album dropped

4 horsemen wont even sell 20,000

I wonder if they'll diss Slaughterhouse to get attention since Royce dissed Canibus after Canibus dissed Eminem. I'd prefer a collaboration though

Yepp. Up until then none of these supposed super groups have ever actually released an album.

if they dont want to make an ass out of themselves they should replace Kurupt

Yeah, that is true but Kurupt been hit/miss in the last few years. He fell off but hopefully he can come with some tight lyrical shit when him and Terrace Martin release that "Street Lights" album. Most of the leaks from the album have been good but they are all leftovers from the album, right?

yup, dat is very tru - kurupt aint got shit against them lyricaly. but at HIS BEST, at least he slays all of them in performance

Good news but im not expecting to see an album, the best we can prob hope for is a few tracks similar to the riflemen.

I am probably in the minority, but I'd rather hear a Kurupt solo than this...

yep. Totally agree. The others might have him beat on the lyrics but I know out of the four if they all brought out a solo CD on the same day I'd spent the money on Kurupt's first.

this is great news!  Ras, Priest and Can-I-Bus are some of the greatest but saying that Kurupt isn't in that group is crazy to me.  Kurupt absolutely destroys tracks with crazy lyrics.

Id take rass kass over the others.Kurupt has never rose above gangster shit,he enver actually raps about anything worthwhile.Rassy has made some deep shit over the years.Kurupt could never make an album like soul on ice,one of the deepest,most lyrical albums to ever come out.

http://www.youtube.com/v/kPobj11LT08&hl=en_US&fs=1&

Amazing track.

http://www.youtube.com/v/JY3YLTkoEdc&hl=en_US&fs=1&

A more recent track.

Both these tracks alone are deeper then kurupts whole career.

 Kurupt sounded dope as fuck on the old horsemen songs.
 Every so often Kurupt still proves he's got it, as much as i love his shit i must admit up against raskass he's gonna get out shined. I agree with other comments about dides liek canibus got the lyrics but i prefer Kurupts flow.
 Killa preist is possibly the weak link, and thats nothing against him, but he dont rhyme as quikc as teh other three, his flow is more plain, but his lyrics are certeranly differant.
 No way you can replace kurupt. Maybe get a feature from teh likes or Crooked-i or Chino xl though^^
