MURS - Funeral For A Killer
Artist: MURS
Featuring: 9th Wonder
Producer: 9th Wonder
Album: The Final Adventure
Label: It's A Wonderful World Music Group/Traffic/KGMG
Though MURS and 9th Wonder chose to channel their energy into making dope music, there are those from their respective ‘hoods who, though some combination of will and circumstance, took a darker path. Coming on the heels of lead single It’s Over, Funeral for a Killer finds the collaborators staring down into the coffin of a homie who died with his finger on the trigger, wondering, “Who cries when the killer dies? Is it justified, when tears fill your eyes?” Over 9th’s pensive, chopped-and-looped samples, the duo ponder the legacy left behind by a cold-blooded gangster, examining the mark he made on the streets, his family and the members of his set. For this moody selection and much more, check out MURS and 9th’s fifth and last album together, The Final Adventure, when it drops November 13, via Duck Down/Jamla.

Really digging the beat. Remember hearing it on the booth years ago on Rocky Fontaine's I Do It, which was dope. Anyone know where the original beat came from? Back to the subject though MURS is an underrated rapper. Really dope flow and lyrics.

I really think The Final Adventure could top Murs 3:16: The 9th Edition. Also I honestly think 9th is criminally overlooked by mainstream rappers, they seem to think they need to go to Jahill Beats, Hit-Boy, Mike WiLL, Lex Luger etc. to get a dope beat!? Nah man, 9th is outdoing ALL of them easily...

This beat sounds like a Dr. Dre Cali joint on some levels. Nice work by 9th Wonder on the beat. MURS handled the bars nicely.

This was very good, thoughtful and poetic and it's a good question, do you morn someone who you knew as noble in a troubled world but was evil to others? you do but in a different way.
