The sounds of classic 36 Chambers-era RZA meld with Portishead and the Italian film music of Ennio Morricone on 12 Reasons To Die, the new album from Ghostface Killah and Adrian Younge. This project is a daring, full-length Crime/Horror concept album.

Ghostface Killah�s prominence in hip hop has grown steadily over his 20-plus year career � including recent high-profile appearances on Kanye West�s Cruel Summer, RZA�s The Man With the Iron Fists soundtrack and the new Wu-Block album � 12 Reasons catches the gifted MC at the height of his lyrical prowess.

Composer/producer/instrumentalist Adrian Younge represents the next generation of black music producers.
His aim is an organic re-appropriation of hip-hop circa the mid-90s. His previous releases, the Black Dynamite
soundtrack album (2009) and Something About April (2011), touched on psychedelia, blaxploitation, and the
cinematic soul of the 1970s. 12 Reasons is Adrian�s first project in which he�s immersed himself in the world of hip-hop.
