Editor's review

VT speak glowingly of turn-of-the-'90s hip-hop, and it's clear that's where their sonic heart lies. But their street-smart, conscious lyrics and golden beatmaking also benefit from the intervening years, which taught us how to hear deeper textures in instrumental rap.

Biography

Verbal Threat is a group known for originality and respect. Representing HIP HOP to the fullest, VT's music throws you back to the traditions of the 1988 to 1992 era. Focusing heavily on lyrical content, Kool Sphere and Reppond rock verses like seasoned veterans. With Dj Flict on the turntables and Ray-Ray on the drums, it has been proven time and again they are a hard act to follow.


Now in 2006, Verbal Threat is releasing "Reality Check", the second single from their highly anticipated album "The Golden Era" (Throwback Records), produced by legendary DJ Premier. Reality Check is a wake up call to the hip-hop industry infatuated with visions of grandeur and reprimands commercial acts that exploit the culture solely for financial gains. "Reckless Eye-Ballin" is on the B side, produced by Wu-Tang's Bronze Nazareth, featuring lyrical king Kool G Rap describing street life in detail from an illicit point if view. Before it official release, April 2006, Reality Check has been getting steady rotation on Sirius Satellite channels Hip-Hop Nation and Shade 45. HipHopGame.com streamed Reality Check over 25,000 times in the first three weeks. XXL Magazine featured Verbal Threat, April 06' Issue, in the Critic's Choice section raving first-class reviews.


"Autobiography", the first single released from "The Golden Era", produced by Bronze Nazareth is that exactly: Verbal Threats memoirs of upbringing thru hip-hop music and culture. Verbal Threat is currently in the studio working on finishing the new album "The Golden Era". Having group members from both New York and Los Angeles, Verbal Threat identifies with their audience across the map. Real hip-hop is about to resurface from the streets with Verbal Threat leading the revolution!
