UPDATE: The two acts enlist Ghostface Killah, Vinnie Paz, Roc Marciano, Large Professor and DJ Premier for their project.

Inspectah Deck and 7L & Esoteric have announced that they are joining forces as CZARFACE, with plans to deliver a project in the near future.

According to a press release, the two acts joined forces as an addendum to their 1999 collaboration “Speaking Real Worlds.” The project will feature guest appearances from Action Bronson, Mr. Muthafuckin’ eXquire, Roc Marciano and Large Professor, as well as additional beats from DJ Premier and album art by Lamour Supreme from Mishka NYC.

“The industry doesn't need another well packaged, put together ‘act,’ instead fans are once again gravitating to the seasoned vets and newcomers that are still true to the game,” said Deck.

“We are CZARFACE because they know our faces and they know us for being dope rhyme suppliers, like Tony Montana we are known for our balls and our word; lyrically we will conquer the world and everything in it,” he continues. Esoteric adds, “CZARFACE is a vigilante, anti-hero character who serves as the face of the project, and his focus is on annihilating the media darlings that the mainstream caters to.”

(February 21)

UPDATE: Label Brick Records has announced that Inspectah Deck and 7L & Esoteric's CZARFACE album will release on February 19, 2013. Announced guests include Ghostface Killah, Vinnie Paz, DJ Premier, Mr. MFN eXquire, Action Bronson, Oh No, Cappadonna and Roc Marciano.

The release will be available digitally, on deluxe edition CD and 2LP.

Image Inspectah Deck, 7L & Esoteric use '90s East Coast Hip Hop as a blueprint to innovate, creating an album that is refreshingly progressive.

As much as we praise the virtues instituted in Hip Hop’s golden era, there is increasing proof that East Coast, sample-based music filled with complex rhymes and similes is being relegated to a subgenre. Samples are becoming too expensive to clear. Major media outlets are rewarding artists for simplifying their sound while catering to the lowest common denominator. And, perhaps most troubling, artists that thrived in the '90s spend more time complaining about all the above instead of ushering in the kind of sonic and technical innovations that once made them so dominant. This is the climate 7L, Esoteric and Wu-Tang Clan’s Inspectah Deck step into for the release of their CZARFACE project.

For an album that pays homage to pop culture references and an ethos from nearly two decades ago, CZARFACE is refreshingly progressive. Make no mistake; this is very much insular, headphone music. Esoteric and Deck treat rapping as an art form, as each verse plays out like verbal calisthenics. And 7L may very well be the MVP of the trio, with production that makes everyone involved bring their best bars. Ghostface Killah shuts down “Savagely Attack” with threats to “attack like a nigga on bath salts” and “leave ‘em broom-sticked in the asshole.” But you can more or less say the same for any of the 14 tracks on the album; because 7L flawlessly weaves together clips from Uptown Saturday Night (“Cement 3’s”) old WWF matches (“It’s Raw”) and anywhere else he pleases to compliment the abundance of obscure pop culture references from Esoteric and Inspectah Deck.

Punchline Rap may have very well died at the turn of the millennium. And we can only hope the lazy Hashtag Rap that replaced it suffers a similar fate. Rebel INS and Eso deftly avoid either trap, sticking to their comfort zone of references including Spiderman, Star Wars, Snooki of “Jersey Shore” fame and the middling TBS sitcom “Cougar Town.” Deck appeared to lose steam on 2010’s Manifesto, but his work on CZARFACE should have Wu stans salivating at the thought of his upcoming Rebellion and a 20th anniversary Wu-Tang Clan reunion album. When backed by the proper production, he has no peers when it comes to the opening verse of a rhyme. Esoteric will similarly put in a bid for one of the most underrated emcees with lines like “sacrilegious like a Tebow tackle” on “It’s Raw.”

While he steps away from the boards to make room for DJ Premier on “Let It Off,” 7L does a masterful job of crafting tracks that allow the emcees on the album to find their comfort zone without becoming repetitive. The production is dark and aggressive while still keeping the BPMs at an exciting rate.

Overall, CZARFACE has no major flaws. It’s obviously not for everyone, yet even when incorporating current critical favorites like Action Bronson and Mr. MFN eXquire, no compromises are made. Inspectah Deck, 7L & Esoteric use '90s East Coast Hip Hop as a blueprint to innovate, and ultimately, that’s what made that era so special in the first place.
