The album’s one sonic misstep is opener The Birds Don’t Sing, its big John Legend-sung chorus venturing into a poppy commerciality that sits awkwardly with Clipse’s USP, but the track is redeemed by its lyrics, a depiction of the near-simultaneous deaths of the brothers’ parents that rains one emotional blow after another on the listener: “The way you missed mama, I guess I should have known / Chivalry ain’t dead, you ain’t let her go alone.” It’s new emotional territory for Clipse, who up to now didn’t really do vulnerable, and proof that Let God Sort Em Out offers far more than nostalgia: familiar but fresh, it’s one of the albums of the year.

After leaving The Clipse, No Malice released an impactful album titled 'Hear Ye Him'. Covering his newfound faith in Christ, No Malice tells the listeners about the changes that have occurred and how it has affected him in a way that doesn't come off as preachy. This album boasts great style from the artist and even greater production, especially on the second half of the project. It is a nice listen and worth your time. #nomalice #hearyehim #pushat #theclipse #rap #hiphop #music #chh
