Review: Season Of Da Siccness by Brotha Lynch Hung is a cornerstone of horrorcore, marking an era when the genre mingled grimly with G-Funk. Released in 1995, this album dives deep into the darkest corners of urban life and Lynch's personal turmoil, particularly the drive-by shooting of his cousin. Lynch's production on the ASR-10, combined with his searing lyrics and relentless flow, creates a chilling cinematic experience akin to a slasher film set in the hood. Standout tracks like 'Return of Da Baby Killa' and 'Rest in Piss' showcase Lynch's ability to blend grotesque narratives with intricate wordplay, setting a high bar for lyrical prowess in rap. Brotha Lynch Hung's complete control over the production, mixing, and mastering adds a personal touch that elevates the project, making Season Of Da Siccness a brutally honest slice of life. This album remains a significant work in hip-hop, celebrated for its unique blend of horror storytelling and G-Funk beats.
