Before you can truly appreciate this album you have to understand the history behind it. First lets start with the mouthpiece of 'Lord Fire' which is none other than the emcee known as Theory Hazit. Now Theo has been making beats himself for years but most notably he is a refreshing emcee with a gift for writing thought-provoking and highly enjoyable MUSIC.
Its one thing for an artist to simply take a boom-bap format and insert their 16 bar verse followed by an 8 bar chorus and repeat until a desired track length is reached... and then hoist it onto the masses for consumption. However, what this artist makes is justly regarded as "rare" among his peers. Theory although rooted in the fundamentals of hip-hop (dejaying, emceeing, beat producing, etc.) is also a linguist and a mic personality.
Theo's word play is often sprawling with cunning word play along side the occasional singy-song raps injected with puns and jabs. Those elements on one accord are intellectually formatted to make listening to his points both easy and enjoyable. Theo's style is a high contrast from other artists who's dumbed down lyrics fall short of a point (or at least the impact of one). He also contrasts those who's tracks seam to fall into place with the standard formatting of what is expected from a hip-hop song. This is why I believe Theory Hazit is quickly arising among a rare breed of emcee and why he is getting allot of new found attention among hip-hop purists... both Christian and general market alike. A feat that few have been able to obtain. To list a few I would include Braille, Othello, Surreal, The Remnant, 4th Avenue Jones, Mars ill, Tunnel Rats, LMNO, The Breax, Sev Static, Dirt, etc... Now enters in Vintage. An upcoming Virginia based producer with an ear for the golden era sound where DJ Premier beats where law and crate diggers scoured for breaks in dusty basements of record stores like gold miners looking for treasure. Organic drum laden bass lines that amplified crispy guitar licks and abstract sounds of Mo Town and Jazz... Pumped loud in the car until you feel your chest tighten up and your heart rate race... finding your arms uncontrollably bouncing in the air to the rhythm. Yup that about sums up the production on 'Lord Fire'.
