Mick Jenkins & greenSLLIME — Black Ass Kung Fu Flick [Album]
This thing plays like a grindhouse reel you hear instead of watch: dusty frames, flying kicks, and bass hits that land like a door getting splintered off its hinges.
Black Ass Kung Fu Flick leans into that blaxploitation-meets-martial-arts language on purpose—cinematic, rebellious, and proud—then flips it into something sharper: street-level observation, humor as a weapon, and bars that treat “survival” like a daily practice, not a slogan.
The full project dropped February 24, 2026, as a 10-track release, and it’s presented as an EVEN exclusive—a direct-support lane where listeners unlock access (minimum price listed at $20) and get unlimited streaming via the platform and app, including offline playback.
What makes it click is the balance: greenSLLIME’s production builds immersive, “movie room” soundscapes—hard drums, tense pockets, sudden mood shifts—while also stepping in with understated rapping that keeps the tape feeling like a true two-man operation. The official description frames it as “a film you can hear,” rooted in Black imagination and aimed at corrupt systems, and that vibe comes through in how the songs move: confrontational, but never preachy; stylish, but never hollow.
The tracklist runs like a brisk set of scenes: “Kaiju (intro),” “White Belts in the Way,” “Tai Chi,” “Creamed Corn,” “Iron Lungs,” “Jungle,” “Basically,” “Not Guilty,” “Vincennes,” and the closer “STFU.” No filler—just a tight sequence that keeps the tension up and the punchlines sharp.
If you want rap that feels like it’s been storyboarded—where every beat switch is a cut, every hook is a title card, and every verse is a close-up—this is the kind of project that rewards a front-to-back listen.
