Like some kinda hip hop horror show, the bleak and stabbing beats of the Gravediggaz are much like (and I'm guessing here) their entourage. You can look in awe, but you can't get inside. Not that you'd want to. These guys take the gangsta attitude to the spiritual side, where even God wants an uzi.

The 'Diggaz are able to match the beats with their caustic, blunt (metaphorically, aurally, and herbally) delivery. The Pick has plenty of way cool, head bobbin' moments, like "Never Gonna Come Back," "Elimination Process," "Pit of Snakes," and "Deadliest Business." But, as you can see, it's also a little too one note. I don't wanna see these guys lighten up, because it would be farcical. But maybe, just maybe, they could have weeded out a few tracks for a more solid release.
