Brooklyn Mc Eddie Kaine returns with producer Big Ghost LTD for their second collaboration. Kaine is one of NYC's prominent newer artist putting his stamp in the indie scene. Following up his 2023 release "House of Kaine" produced by BP Infinite he continues to put out quality material and stays consistent. One thing Kaine makes clear is his seriousness and dedication to his craft.

Along with quality music Eddie has established himself amongst his peers and some legends in the industry. Big Ghost an established producer also has worked with Conway, 38 Spesh, UFO Fev, Rome Streetz, and Che Noir. This puts Eddie in a list of good company. This is the follow up to their project "A Tree Grows In Brooklyn" released in 2021.

With "Last Exit to Crooklyn" Eddie continues to bring versatility, reality rap, storytelling, and motivation music. The artwork is also very intentional to illustrate the Crooklyn theme. Big Ghost also shows his range as the production feels custom to Eddie's style. 

The album opens up with "The Wrong Era" where he illustrates his artistic taste mentioning many greats from different times. He paints a story with frequent collaborator Rim on "Crooktown" as they detail a set up plot. He features Drumwork Mc Jae Skeese on "Lanier vs. King" as they show their lyrical prowess. On "Cutthroat Drills" he addresses maneuvering amongst those with hidden intentions. Kaine is diverse with his music however he still represents for NYC and does so perfectly on motivational song "To The Pedal". 

An overall great listen "Last Exit to Crooklyn" showcases a talented Mcs being authentic with his artistry. Eddie Kaine shows the narrative of the lack of quality Hip Hop to be false. Along with Big Ghost LTD they are carrying the Torch.
