They are the latest to endorse the new Matt Maddox album “Righteous Fury” which releases 25th February 2014 on Red Phone Records / Seven 13 Music

Writer Craig Palmer affords the release a 4 star rating, recommending it to fans of Army of the Pharaohs, La Coka Nostra and Snowgoons for the powerful and intelligent delivery of Maddox’ lyricism, backed by high quality production & turntablism from the likes of C Lance, Skammadix, Sicknature, Nemesis, Vanderslice & DJ TMB. Add into the mix features from Tragedy Khadafi, Reef the Lost Cauze, King Magnetic, Adlib and other assembled cast members, it results in a potent release for all who appreciate the authentic hip hop sound
