Review- Jenny Death by Death Grips

FUCKING FINALLY, JENNY DEATH NOW


Just the other night, the new Death Grips release got leaked, and thus streamed by the band on YouTube. This release is the second part of the two part release entitled The Powers That B. This release has been something of an enigmatic release, with their breakup, multiple delays, track leaks and this inevitable leak, it's about time this release came out.
 Production wise this release is far less experimental than Niggas On The Moon, with less sample use, and more synth and drum tracks being used. However I feel as though this release doesn't chalk up to Exmilitary or The Money Store. However some really cool vocal effects were used on tracks like Inanimate Sensation. Overall, I wasn't blown away with this release, but I definitely think that it lived up to the hype train it came in on, with a strong release.
 MC Ride's verses are as strong and aggressive as ever, but he does some talked/whispered bits sometimes which definitely throws off the whole release itself. Leaving me with some feelings of disappointment, but primarily fulfillment from a good release, this Death Grips record earns a 7/10.

Listen to Jenny Death now, here.
