The southern battle-waxer Gaddy continues to spearhead his brand of hip-hop fusion with in Tabernacle Takeover. This fully packed EP wraps up brazen low-end and broken rhythms into a stereophonic one-inch-punch. Bass lines slice in and out of the beat in tandem with tight, bright percussion skittering across the stereo space. Each song slides into place across the album like a smooth lattice, ramping up in groove, swagger, and intensity from start to finish, channeling the vibe of late night L-rides and the stirred silica blowing off of city sidewalks. There's no substitute for being in the pocket, and Gaddy has a firm monopoly on pocketed rhythms across the hip-hop spectrum.
