(Big Red Machine)

I know it’s hard to show excitement via text, but this is like early Christmas to me! After his ‘AOTY’ contender earlier this year with ‘War Dogs’, I was hanging on every announcement, and then you add in a concept album about Kane? Get the fuck out of here, this thing is a classic already.

So, this is the BRAND NEW album by rapper K. Burns with 8 new tracks and 18 minutes in length, with producers such as:

-Eddie Word

-ECTO-84

-Don Carrera

-Damn! Dave

-The Standouts

-The PRXSPECT

– Johnny Kilroy

And mixed and mastered by Trudotp. 

Right off the bat, let’s talk production because the various list of names listed above have come together to create the perfect blend of tragedy, horror, grime, and thriller to match the aura of what Kane would be like if he did create an album of this magnitude.

The blend of concept/artistry and hip-hop is balanced just right! You get your theatrical cuts from Kane’s career that just bring you back to your childhood nostalgia, but with the added cinematic production behind it, it adds a whole new level of atmosphere that the originals themselves lacked with no score.

Even if you’ve never watched WWE before, I feel this album would be such a fascinating fever dream of a listen hearing the story about a demented and monstrous man and his actions. But as a wrestling fan, this thing should excite and hype up any and all! 

K. Burns himself. After his amazing work on ‘War Dogs’, I was curious to see how he’d carry himself on future projects, and as expected, he’s an absolute killer.

He’s choke-slamming rivals left and right, and even when you don’t see him, he’ll hit you with flow and lyricism that will knock your ass down like an avalanche clothesline! 

He’s come equipped with the sidewalk slam of penmanship, the big boot of charisma, and if you’re not careful, he’ll even use his secret weapon of cold-blooded cadence, AKA The Tombstone Piledriver. 

See No Evil? Well, just look past the flames and don’t let the slow chemicals distort your mind because I can guarantee you K. Burns is ‘The Devil’s Favourite’, and if you try to downplay this modern-day masterpiece, you’ll feel the wrath of ‘The Big Red Monster’.
