When records get postponed for retooling, it's generally not a good thing. However, in the case of GEMINI: GOOD VS. EVIL, the third album from Cleveland, Ohio rapper Krayzie Bone, the delay was positive, borne out of the chance for Krayzie to record new material with his fellow Bones--Layzie, Bizzy and Wish--as a likely prelude to a Bone Thugs-N-Harmony reunion. The outcome of those sessions includes classic Bone vocal trading on a remix of the album's opening track, "Get'chu Twisted." The original version finds the nimble-tongued rapper on top of his game, taking the simple hook and waiting for a bit, before unleashing a torrent of lyrics both reverential and righteously arrogant. Early in the record, Krayzie uncorks a line about being "caught up in the rapture," which pretty much defines the singular MC's style when he gets in the groove. On "Put It on Y'all," he slips from casual delivery into hyperactive rapping without effort. On "Nuthin' But Music," Krayzie develops one of the more original hip-hop-history songs, starting with the West Coast rap movement before blissfully recalling almost every significant 1980s rap moment. A few tracks later, Bone shifts to the evil side on the horror-rap, alternative-metal sampling "Don't Know Why," revealing the range of GEMINI: GOOD VS. EVIL.
