http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1044&rws=%2Fkillah-priest%2Fmusic-videos.rssA Brooklyn emcee with a penchant for fusing religious scriptures with Brooklyn thuggishness, Killah Priest got his start on records by ODB and the Gravediggaz. His divinity-laced verse on the GZA's "B.I.B.L.E." turned many heads, and led to an album from his crew, the Wu-affiliated Sunz of Man. In 1998 he released his first solo album, the aptly-titled <i>Heavy Mental</i>. Unfortunately, in a year dominated by radio rabble rousers like Jay-Z and Lauryn Hill, his complicated lyrical style flew way over the heads of average rap consumers. He returned in 2000 with <i>View From Masada</i>, but again fell short of crossing over into the mainstream arena. Nonetheless, Killah Priest is widely respected as a stellar lyricist, and is rumored to be forming a crew of super-emcees called The Four Horsemen, alongside Ras Kass, Canibus, and Kurupt. - Brolin WinningEast Coast Street Poetsen720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 11:09:00 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1044&rws=%2Fkillah-priest%2Fmusic-videos.rss A Brooklyn emcee with a penchant for fusing religious scriptures with Brooklyn thuggishness, Killah Priest got his start on records by ODB and the Gravediggaz.
