When Statik Selektah dropped the lead single to his third compilation album, The Hangover, I was in bed with pillows over my head. Thankfully, a friend graciously put me onto the jazzy vibes and hip-hip essence evoked from “The Thrill Is Gone.” Without getting into details, the song proves its title wrong.
Plus, like I said on Twitter awhile back, The Ghost makes the best music out of any member of The Lox.

This been in my steady rotation for a month. Joint is good ol hip-hop. Those scratches are niiiiice.
Shit is hardbody!!! Co-sign Beware, The Ghost is too ill with it.
Wow, this is really good. Smoking Section doing it up big.
Styles & Kweli have chemistry
Just about the only song on my Ipod that gets more burn off the album (without me actually havin the album) Tracks like this, will make u actually spend $$$ on music again. And people are still sleepin on Statik’s last jawn.
