Huey P. Newton once said, “You can jail a Revolutionary, but you can’t jail a Revolution.” And from the inside looking out, KXNG Crooked (fka Crooked I) has now released an appropriately timed album days after the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election. He brings awareness of the continued social injustice, government corruption and plight of inner city dwellers. With notable features by some of hip-hop’s elites, like Eminem, Xzibit, the RZA and Tech N9ne, Good vs. Evil is fearless, organic and ruthless, revealing the grim realities of the nation’s self-interested and divisive climate.
Score: 9 out of 10
