KKKill The Fetus
''KKKill the Fetus'' is the third studio album by Esham. Released in 1993, the album's lyrics focus on subjects such as abortion and murder. The album, which has been cited as an iconic horrorcore album, has been praised for its genre-defining production and lyrics. It is considered to be Esham's critical breakthrough, compared to lackluster reviews of his previous albums. The single "Sunshine" received very heavy radio play nationally. The music video for "Hellterskkkelter" was featured on an episode of ''Yo! MTV Raps'' in 1994, and was given out at an autograph signing at Rock of Ages in rare VHS form during the promotional launch. Lyrics and music The album's title track encourages drug-addicted pregnant women to have an abortion rather than give birth to their children to be raised improperly. The album's cover depicts a fetus simulating fellatio and thus would be born not only a dope fiend, but also a sex fiend which is why abortion is stressed in the album's title track. Many ...

Albums Produced By Esham
An album is a collection of audio recordings issued on compact disc (CD), vinyl, audio tape, or another medium such as digital distribution. Albums of recorded sound were developed in the early 20th century as individual 78 rpm records collected in a bound book resembling a photograph album; this format evolved after 1948 into single vinyl long-playing (LP) records played at rpm. The album was the dominant form of recorded music expression and consumption from the mid-1960s to the early 21st century, a period known as the album era. Vinyl LPs are still issued, though album sales in the 21st-century have mostly focused on CD and MP3 formats. The 8-track tape was the first tape format widely used alongside vinyl from 1965 until being phased out by 1983 and was gradually supplanted by the cassette tape during the 1970s and early 1980s; the popularity of the cassette reached its peak during the late 1980s, sharply declined during the 1990s and had largely disappeared dur ...

Zug Izland
Zug Izland is an American rock band from Detroit, Michigan, United States, currently signed to Psychopathic Records. The group sometimes refers to its fans as " zuggalos". Background Zug Izland formed in 2001, named after an industrial site near Detroit. The band was formed by Insane Clown Posse member Violent J (Joseph Bruce) and Mike Puwal, out of Bruce's love of rock music. Bruce wanted to know what a "Juggalo Rock" band would sound like. Zug Izland's songs were written and developed during the recording of Insane Clown Posse's album '' The Wraith: Shangri-La''. Bruce and Puwal completed the basic tracks for two songs, but still required a lead singer. Bruce wanted a singer similar to Kurt Cobain, Eddie Vedder, Jim Morrison or Axl Rose. Although Syn was sought by three other bands at the time, he joined Zug Izland as their official singer. The band broke onto the national competitive music scene in 2003 with their debut album, ''Cracked Tiles''. The album peaked at No. 48 o ...

Closed Casket
''Closed Casket'' is the fourth studio album by Esham, released on November 22, 1994, and distributed by Reel Life Productions/Warlock Records. Lyrics and music Because of the Satanic themes of his earlier work, Esham had been accused of Satanism. Feeling that the lyrical content of his albums was being taken too seriously, Esham decided that after producing one final album with such material, he would no longer rap about the Devil. Jason Birchmeier noted that "the production improves upon past albums, not as reliant on samples and obviously more crafted". Reception Allmusic AllMusic (previously known as All Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands.

Doubelievengod
''Doubelievengod'' is the third album by Natas, released in 1995. Music and lyrics Describing the music and lyrics, Allrovi called ''Doubelievengod'' "a much more mature album in terms of both production and rapping. Most obviously, the platter of samples is gone; for whatever reasons, the emphasis is now on synth-driven beats ..The move toward eerie synth actually works in this album's favor, given its malevolent slant and ominous tone". Reception Allrovi reviewer Jason Birchmeier writes that ''Doubelievengod'' "holds a special place in the Esham legacy alongside the ''Judgement Day'' albums as the summit of not necessarily his talent but rather his wickedness." Track listing All tracks produced by Esham ;Sample credits * "Doubelievengod" contains a sample of "Original Nuttah" as performed by UK Apachi * "NATAS" contains a sample of "Original Nuttah" as performed by UK Apachi * "Itzalright" contains a sample of "Black Frost" as performed by Grover Washington, Jr. * ...

Night
Night (also described as night time, unconventionally spelled as "nite") is the period of ambient darkness from sunset to sunrise during each 24-hour day, when the Sun is below the horizon. The exact time when night begins and ends depends on the location and varies throughout the year, based on factors such as season and latitude. The word can be used in a different sense as the time between bedtime and morning. In common communication, the word ''night'' is used as a farewell ("good night", sometimes shortened to "night"), mainly when someone is going to sleep or leaving. Astronomical night is the period between astronomical dusk and astronomical dawn when the Sun is between 18 and 90 degrees below the horizon and does not illuminate the sky. As seen from latitudes between about 48.56° and 65.73° north or south of the Equator, complete darkness does not occur around the summer solstice because, although the Sun sets, it is never more than 18° below the horizon at lowe ...
