The Beast Is G Unit

With the release of this six-track EP, 's return continued to roll out slowly but surely. Surely because the street-worthy music here is raw and scrappy enough to bring to mind the group's early years, especially the key track "Bring My Bottles," where founding member takes the spotlight. The stark "Boy Boy" is classic in its unapologetic lyrics ("I'm with the dope, son/I'm with the coke, son") while "Doper Than My Last One" is a solo cut now credited to the group, which was the way they used to do it back when Radio mixtapes spilled out every bodega and gas station. ~ David Jeffries
