With ten members and
counting it's likely you know at least one member of
the underground super group, The Demigodz. While the
other artists involved with the Earplug series chose
to drop rhymes about problems in life or take an introspective
stance on things, the Demigodz crew, led by Celph Titled
and Apathy, aims right for the jugular with hardcore
flows and rapid-fire rhymes. Don't expect any type of
message in the music either as the EP is filled with
some hilarious punchline heavy songs with verses from
Apathy, Celph, Esoteric, Rise, Louis Logic, and Open
Mic among others. Celph Titled starts off "The Godz
Must Be Crazy" EP welcoming you to 'Chrome Depot' with
a cock of his glock, while Apathy does his best Snoop
Dogg impression as he lets you know the Demigodz ain't
on some abstract shit. "Science
Of The Bumrush Vol. 2" is riddled with lines
like Apathy claiming he "slips bitches roofies/ snatch
Muslim kufis/ still steal from the store and sneak into
the movies." Celph comes equally as ridiculous as he
brags about "Making rap loot from rhyming and making
hits/ while you be begging niggas on websites just to
check your shit." "Captivate
/ Deactivate" is titled and even sounds like
an average 7L & Esoteric song so its only right
E himself starts off this rap race. Celph drops another
nice one liner with "I'm dope, your just a barbiturate
kicking bitch shit."

"The
Demigodz" is another funny braggadocio romp
as Celph flips the beat with an almost game show type
of appeal with the ultra catchy hook of "The Demigodz,
we'll crush your click (crush your click!)/ We'll fuck
your bitch/ The Demigodz don't give a fuck/ Cuz your
shit sucks (It Sucks!)." This song will have you singing
that crazy hook wherever you go. "Off
The Chrome" has Majik Most formerly of Equilibrium
acting as a deranged fan who almost has convulsions
as Apathy, Louis Logic, and Celph kick verses off the
dome for his entertainment. "Don't
You Even Go There" is arguably the tightest
cut with Louis Logic claiming best verse honors as Apathy
laces the beat with a Lauryn Hill sample covering as
the hook. "The Godz Must Be
Crazy" brings the EP to a close in dramatic
fashion with a monster posse cut containing vocals from
12 heads including L-Fudge and Rise.

While the Demigodz may
come correct on most of their punchlines their reliance
on one-liners can be there downfall, as sometimes the
lines just don't work. However, overall "The Godz Must
Be Crazy" is very entertaining piece of mindless hiphop
that will be a breath of fresh air for those looking
for music with a hardcore edge that concentrates more
on the next line then delivering a specific message.
