RA Scion and Sabzi form a lethal combination with Common Market. Don’t call it a comeback but the duo’s September release of Tobacco Road is an impressive followup to their self-titled full length of 2005. The record is laced with rich and rhythmic beats that’d make a fat white man move. I’ve seen it. RA Scion’s lyrics surround the clash between big and small business (namely the tobacco industry), a strong influence on the title and overarching theme of the album. Grunge is dead and now some serious hip-hop is spawing out of Seattle.
