Declaring to be celebrating “the golden era of 90s hip-hop”, American supergroup Bloodlin3 craft a compelling and wholesome album, ‘Mercy’. Comprised of three talented brothers, 2Severe, Reinman Quiji, and Mallachi, this Paducah, KY, and El Paso, TX, trio delivers a refreshing sound that pays homage to their musical influences while offering a unique and soulful sonic imprint.
Drawing inspiration from legends such as Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Tech N9ne, Eminem, and Brotha Lynch Hung, Bloodlin3 masterfully blend old-school vibes with a contemporary twist. The album’s old-school production immediately captivates listeners, transporting them back to the era of boom-bap beats and lyrical mastery, something that’s ever relevant today, we might add.
In an industry landscape where rap and hip-hop seem to have hit a creative rut, Bloodlin3 restart from the bottom, managing to innovate while remaining drenched in the best tradition. ‘Mercy’ not only showcases the group’s exceptional musical talent but also boasts impressive collaborations with the calibre of Bizzy Bone, Krizz Kaliko, and DJ Michael Watts. These features enrich the album, adding an extra layer of depth and authenticity to the already compelling tracks.
