On a posse cut filled with tension and building with a verve that’s palpable, “V of 40M” drive you with veracity and purpose on “The Score”. The dual nature of the song, combining elements that are lyrically political and sonically imposing lends itself to the overall menacing and flooring nature of “The Score”. That beat, continually unraveling more and more as the seconds go by just builds a sense of revolution and settling scores that pounds with each bar and creeps with each moment. Both melodic and meancing, it’s a gangsta rap track with a sense of style that’s uniquely its own. Influenced admittedly by The Fugees, V of 40M and the artists alongside including Hippie G and 40m Tye combine to deliver a piece that’s distinctively new age while simultaneously being rooted in elements of origin from the genre.
