Released in conjunction with the similarly packaged Ghetto Dictionary: The Mystery, Ghetto Dictionary: The Art of War is a 20-track compilation of Bounty Killer tracks organized around a single theme: his supremacy over other DJs.
The practice of DJ battling is a long-standing and venerable one in the dancehall reggae world, and Bounty Killer is one of its most respected practitioners.
But as impressive as his lyrical flow and powerful delivery are, he is hobbled on this collection by the sameness of the rhythms provided him by a shifting array of producers.
His credibility is also somewhat undermined by the relentless and violent homophobia of his lyrics, which run to lines like, "Wipe out the faggot with a pure laser beam," and so on.
There are a few highlights, such as the soca-flavored "Man Ah Bad Man the Sequel" and the refreshingly funky "All out War." But overall, you'll do better starting off with the more varied and artful The Mystery and then picking this one up if you absolutely must have more.
