Five years after his untimely murder, The Jacka is honored with a posthumous LP featuring Styles P, Curren$y, Freddie Gibbs, Cormega, Killah Priest and many more.
Many rappers who The Jacka worked with in the past or inspired today make appearances on Murder Weapon, including The LOX member Styles P, Curren$y, Berner, Freddie Gibbs, Cormega, Paul Wall, and Wu-Tang Clan's own Killah Priest just to name a few. The shining quality of this album is that it doesn't sound or feel like a "cash grab" in the vain of many posthumous albums you may have unfortunately heard before. Murder Weapon fits perfectly into the rest of Dominick's catalogue, especially hearing his hard-to-miss rap cadence again alongside some of the best out there. While some tracks can be hard to take in due to the reality of his death, including "Live it Up" and what Priest is spitting on "Ancient Astronaut," overall this is a project that hip-hop needed right now. In short, those who know will love it and those who don't will definitely learn something.
