Clipse ran into delays in following up to 2002's Lord Willin' and in their absence their crack rap style has been adopted by the likes of Young Jeezy and Lil' Wayne. However, no one seems to floss as outrageously as Clipse's Pusha T and Malice. Hell Hath No Fury isn't as well-assembled as Lord Willin' or as spontaneous as Clipse's lauded mix-CDs from 2005 but it is coldly efficient in knocking out 12 songs backed with superbly dark and sparse tracks by the Neptunes. It's a tight, tidy package with a flint-hard but not overly seriously street aesthetic. Detractors will rightfully note the amorality of it all, but when Clipse are dropping playful lines about being "in touch with the keys/move over Alicia," you realize that all they're really pushing is style. --Oliver Wang
Album Description
Clipse "Hell Hath No Fury" Clipse are officially back, and time hasn't beaten them down or fattened them up, it's just honed their meticulous craft, broadened their vision and pissed them off. They're better - and angrier- than ever. This album features the singles "Mr. Me Too," featuring Pharrell and "Wamp Wamp (What It Do)," featuring Slum Thug. Hell Hath No Fury strikes a brilliant balance between futurism and nostalgia. It's an album of lyrics-driven hip-hop in the spirit of east coast rap's early '90s heyday, but it's also powered by the noisiest, meanest, most space-age production the Neptunes have ever served up.
