Sixteen years. That’s how long it’s been since Virginia’s own Clipse—Pusha T and Malice—dropped a full-length album together. Now, in 2025, the duo storms back with Let God Sort Em Out, a project that proves some things don’t age—they just get sharper.
🔥 Production: Sleek, But Still Hungry
Pharrell Williams handles the boards across the entire album, delivering beats that are unmistakably Neptunes. Gone is the raw, stripped-down grit of Hell Hath No Fury, replaced with glossy, cinematic production that sometimes feels almost too clean. But even with that polish, the duo slices through it like a knife, making each track their own. The beats hit, the hooks stick, and the chemistry? Still undeniable.
📝 Lyrics: Street Tales, Spiritual Depth
If you were hoping for the old Clipse braggadocio, you’ll get it—but there’s more now. Pusha T’s razor-sharp punchlines coexist with reflective bars about loss, faith, and aging in the game. Malice brings a new layer of introspection, showing growth without sacrificing street credibility. On tracks like “The Birds Don’t Sing” and “Ace Trumpets,” opulent imagery meets weighty storytelling, a perfect balance of flash and substance.
🌟 Standout Cuts
- “Chains & Whips” – Kendrick Lamar joins for a verse that cuts through the opulence with raw authenticity.
- “M.T.B.T.T.F.” – Classic Clipse lyricism on display: clever, witty, and untouchable.
- “So Be It” – A haunting, melodic cut that proves these veterans can still move the soul, not just the streets.
🧠 Verdict: Legends Don’t Retire
Let God Sort Em Out isn’t just a comeback—it’s a statement. Critics have called the production a touch too polished, but Clipse’s lyrical fire and chemistry more than compensate. This is an album for fans who’ve grown up with Pusha T and Malice, and for new listeners who want proof that the game’s finest storytellers still run it.
Clipse have returned, and the streets—and the charts—are listening.
