BP - "Stacking Ammo" ft. Frukwan & 9th Prince

There's a common misconception about the Wu, that the entire movement fell off when the quality of the nine generals' solo work started to wane a bit. That might be true if you're weighing the impact with Billboard charts and radio play, but to some ears, the mid-'00s were every bit as fertile a period for the Wu, predominantly on the strength of the combined output of Wu's Killa Bee offshoots. To those ears, albums like 9th Prince's Granddaddy Flow, from 2003, are seminal works of la Wu familia.

With BP having cut his teeth toward the tail end of this era, working with acts like Black Market Militia and Timbo King, as well as 9th, "Stacking Ammo," which features he and former Gravedigga Frukwan, is a perfect entry point for the leadup to Timeless Music, BP's upcoming album, which also features guest appearances from RZA, Killah Priest, Shyheim, and the late Sean P and Prodigy, among a host of others.
