Watch: Cage finishes new album
»
"It's Ibiza meets Clockwork Orange... It's Ibiza-core" - El-p
Cage seems to be in post-production of his latest solo record Depart From Me. He is holed up in El-p's Palace of Hits, looking haggard as ever, which should provide positive anticipation for a new Cage record.
Hopefully, the post-production work ethic is not affected by Cage's lapses in awareness. Let that be a lesson kiddies: don't do too many drugs or you'll mistake your angry songs as happy ones.

I heard an early copy of this album and I have to say - this sucks pretty bad. He went from having a gritty and raw edge and being one of my favorite MCs to just another emo kid sitting at home deciding whether or not to slit his wrists. This album will officially mark the death of Cage as an MC. I'm not sure if Cage is trying to cash in on the success that Atmosphere has had by going emo but this album is truly awful. The only decent track on here was surprisingly the one already released "Look At What You Did". Hell's Winter was amazing and one of my favorite underground hip hop albums. This album is awful.
