This is a genre who is often met with diametrically opposed opinions.
Another reason is the justification of it all. There are dramatic intermissions, recurring personas, graphic descriptions, chains of events, etc. One is that the artist himself heavily relies on the narrative element. There are several reasons that call for the cinematographic analogy in this case. Only a spectacular turn of events during “Mannibalector” could have elevated the project from a succession of shocking scenes to a thoroughly scripted, casted, acted, directed and edited piece of work. While “Dinner and a Movie” was an exciting rap album period, “Coathanga Strangla” made no attempt to tie the concept’s loose threads together, plus individual chapters failed to live up to the expectations their titles raised, last but not least due to a bloated supporting cast. Lynch and Strange were off to a good start with “Dinner and a Movie,” which not only offered some truly horrific moments and professional musical support but also provided a rare reality check for listeners conditioned towards an uncritical consumption of rap music, a genre that traditionally walks a fine line between truth and fiction but is usually in complete denial about that balancing act. It’s so wonderfully obvious that it just might be true.Įverything was in place for a masterpiece, a career-crowning achievement developing over three releases. That’s right, on “Dinner and a Movie” (2010), “Coathanga Strangla” (2011) and “Mannibalector” (2013) Lynch is rapper by day, strangler, stabber, slasher, slayer, serial killer by night. Everybody’s happy, especially Hung, who continues to make a living setting his actual factual perversion to music. He records a trilogy of albums that thoroughly document his fascination with the entire range between bodily harm and homicide – and those nasty human actions that surpass the imagination of the average person.
Veteran horrorcore rapper Brotha Lynch Hung relaunches his career by signing with distinctive indie label Strange Music, home of a motley crew of rap acts who if nothing else share the willingness to deal with the mental and physical aspects of human existence.
