Review: Chemical Warfare

Alchemist has been one of the top producers in the game for years, with a style that truly sets him a part from his peers.  This Tuesday ALC drops his second solo project titled “Chemical Warfare”.  His previous effort “1st Infantry” came out in 2004 and the game has changed since then. There’s been a significant shift away from the hardcore, gritty realism that Alchemist beats are more often then not the theme music for.  Yet Alchemist has proven with his new album that his production skills transcends eras, trends/fads and still stay true to what he’s about and what he’s been doing for years.

Peep the track by track break down of “Chemical Warfare” after the jump.
