Thanks to Razorblade Runner for posting on the new GZA/DJ Muggs album the other day, which is excellent. When DJ Muggs worked with GZA on The Legend of the Liquid Sword for the song "Luminal" it was one of my favorite tracks on the album, so when I heard about this collaboration I was really looking forward to it. The album called Grandmasters has a chess theme which is evident in the song title of one of the tracks posted here, (you even get advice for your own game if you listen close). The theme works well for GZA whose past albums have had themes heavy on the intellectual side of fighting, and DJ Muggs' dark tinged production does well to color the tracks with grim style.
