Bears And Bullets Albums Of The Year (Missed The Cut)

Continuing with list week, we honor the best of 2013's albums with a few honorable mentions. Check it out after the bump.

New Ghostface & Adrian Younge - Murder Spree (ft. Inspectah Deck, U-God, Masta Killa, and Killa Sin)

With less than two weeks to go before the release of yet another one of April's supremely-anticipated releases, All-Star tandem Ghostface Killah and Adrian Younge debuted another cut from 12 Reasons To Die.

"Murder Spree," as with plenty of other album cuts, features a fresh crop of helping, including fellow Wu members Inspectah Deck, U-God, Masta Killa, and Killa Sin in this murderous tome.

The accompanying video, however, is simply a filmed pressing of the album's deluxe edition package. Pressed in Boston, the 12 Reasons To Die deluxe issue (dubbed the 12 Delucas Version) will be limited to 400 copies. Within, the issue contains a separate instrumental LP and CD, comics, a poster, various other graphics from AntiDesigns, and a special cassette-only version of the album from Apollo Brown(!).

Order the limited 12 Delucas Version via Get On Down before its too late, or grab the album April 16 via RZA's label Soul Temple.

New Ghostface Killah - The Rise Of The Ghostface Killah

Things deservedly come to a halt when certain acts release new material. I may be in the minority believing that whatever Ghostface touches usually turns into gold, but there's no denying that "The Rise Of The Ghostface" is a return to glory.

The track will be featured on his upcoming LP Twelve Reasons To Die, which is produced by fellow Wu member RZA (always a good sign). Check out the track below and watch out for the album later this year.

Wu Tang Clan on Fallon

It's big. Most (unfortunately) dropped by Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last night to perform another stellar track from RZA's The Man With The Iron Fists soundtrack, "Six Directions Of Boxing." The Roots and Black Thought admirably filled the void of the members who weren't in attendance (Raekwon, Method Man), including in a special rendition of "Protect Ya Neck."

Watch both performances below, and grab the soundtrack to The Man With The Iron Fists today.
