up 080: masters of the universe [2000]

''perhaps one of the most promising debuts since 'illmatic,' 'masters of the universe' inrtoduces the world to binary star, the flagship group released on subteranneous records. 

throughout the album, senim silla and the one man army (one be lo) brandish their lyrical dexterity over some of the finest beats produced in recent years.

from front to back, 'masters of the universe' never fails to disappoint. each verse seems to get better than the next; one man army's verse from 'reality check' is still one of my favorite of all time. and, as juice so perfectly states on ''the kgb,'' ''the only person who could kick a doper line would be god.''
