The Ultimatum

Carnage The Executioner can bring together all of what traditional Hip-Hop enthusiasts long for with THE ULTIMATUM. This 8-song release shows off The Executioner’s unyielding ability to grow with each venture.

The present ride starts immediately as the record hits you hard from the beginning. Although it has peaks & valleys, they don’t detract from the overall intensity. The ride only stops once the record is over. The old school-futuristic approach & song structure make this feel like a 90’s Hip-Hop record while still displaying a modern ambiance sans sounding dated.

The Executioner is in classic form on THE ULTIMATUM: he’s raising eyebrows; he’s living up to his namesake; he’s positioning himself in your face without it seeming forced. The message is simple: hone your skills & bring the rugged, raw, hardcore, sincere & overall great Hip-Hop back…Or face the consequences. You’ve been warned.
