On December 14, Ghostface Killah will release his ninth solo album, Apollo Kids. The album takes its name from a song on Ghost’s 2000 heralded album Supreme Clientele. The Wu-Tang Clan member’s fifth Def Jam Records album has announced its tracklisting and cover art.
Apollo Kids features new collaborations with the likes of Game, Black Thought and Joell Ortiz, along with bandmates GZA, U-God, Raekwon, and Method Man. The Staten Island lyrical icon released Wu-Massacre with the latter emcees earlier this year.
The album’s artwork is to the right. The tracklisting to Apollo Kids is as follows:
1. Purified Thoughts (feat. GZA & Killah Priest)
2. Superstar (feat. Busta Rhymes)
3. Black Tequila (feat. Cappadonna & Trife)
4. Drama (feat. Joell Ortiz & Game)
5. 2getha Baby
6. Starkology
7. In Tha Park (feat. Black Thought)
8. Handcuffin’ Them Hoes (feat. Jim Jones)
9. Street Bullies (feat. Sheek Louch, Wiggs & Sungod)
10. Ghetto (feat. Raekwon, Cappadonna & U-God)
11. Troublemakers (feat. Raekwon, Method Man & Redman)
12. Rockbox
13. How You Like Me Baby (feat. Fabolous) (iTunes Bonus Track)
fuckin ridiculous!!! This album is going to be insane.
What a lineup? Where is the producers?
I swear to god this shit better outsell god damn taylor swift….COME ON WHITE PEOPLE, YOU CAN DO IT!
If you upload/seed this on a torrent site, please kill yourself shortly after. Preferably via seppuku, or some other ungodly method…
I’ll be getting this the day it comes out, which is hopefully the same over here as it is in the States.
Anyone who downloads this for free needs to send me their details so I can hunt them down.
what does taylor have to do with this?
In tha Park & Troublemakers are the joints I most wanna hear

“Ice cold milk and Lorna Dunes.”
too much guests…take out jim jones and there decent…
ye too many features…but this looks like its gonna be a classic album at face value
ghost is my favorite from the wu. this looks like a collaboration fueled album but thats cool cuz i love game, black thought, busta rhymes, ortiz. ghetto and street bullies shoulda been left off though, why put sheek louch on a track, or cappadonna and u-god, they all suck
wow MORON. nigga please, sheek louch and cappadonna are wack. listen to the pillage by cappadonna and re evaluate and get back to me
Cappadonna has one of the best verses in the history of hip hop- Winter Warz. Uey’s dope too. Dopium = one of my personal favourites of ’09.
for real man, listen to c_miltz. u-god’s dopium album, listen to that cut train trussle and tell me u ain’t stoked for a ghost & u-god collabo. idiot
cant wait all of ghostface’s albums are amazing
i agree witchu fully man. besides ghostdini the wizard of poetry in emerald city. yawn. crap. pile of dog shit right there. don’t catch dude live before this comes out. you’ll see no new tracks performed. and you’ll have to sit through tracks like baby ft. raheem devaughn PLAYED OUT FULLY. I KINDA LIKED THA SONG, BUT NOW I HATE IT AFTER SEEING A FIVE MINUTE LIVE VERSION OF IT. FUUCK EMERALD CITY
weres RZA?
PLEASE LET THAT FIRST TRACK BE RZA PRODUCED! If that’s the case then it might be worth purchasing just for that song
jim jones on there
dip-set bitch!
looks like ghost cant hold a track down on his own.
Waaaaaaaaaayy too many features.
it would be different if some of the listed guests were singers doin hooks, but SHIT!!!!!!!!! we got a meal tickit for face
i wanna hear this album
i don’t care if he DOES an album with taylor swift, ghost gets my $15 everytime. i predict this will be more pretty toney than fishscale though
Can’t wait but some of those features seem lame.
a lot of interesting features mainly fab,the game and ortiz
he flowed pretty cohesively with fab on previous tracks like that one of his last album. (which sucked)
too many features, i just want wu on it. nice to see killah priest though.
knowing ghost it’ll still be strong but never on the level of ironman or supreme cos fucking defjam forgot what real hip hop is and just chase radio singles. GHOST SHOULD SIGN TO DUCK DOWN OR YEAR ROUND
“never on the level of ironman or supreme”
Fishscale and The Big Doe Rehab were actually better than Ironman, Ironman is not that good.
All ya’ll hataz shut the fuck up and hit the stores when the shit comes out, to judge 4 yaselves…and don’t bootlegg any of ma shit, I’ll hit u, ma sons
imma get at you hommie. watch ya back, we got mad snipers.
Sounds good, but who are the producers?
