Czarface, the group that matches Boston underground rap duo 7L & Esoteric with Wu-Tang veteran Inspectah Deck, released Czarface Meets Metal Face, a full-length collab with kindred spirit MF Doom, back in March. Next year they’ll be back with another full-album team-up, this time with Deck’s Wu-Tang associate Ghostface Killah.

Czarface Meets Ghostface is once again produced entirely by the cheekily named Czar-Keys (7L & Jeremy Page). On lead single “Iron Claw,” they’ve provided the rest of the rappers with a radioactive industrial wasteland in which to work, something like what might happen if El-P tried to produce straight boom-bap. It’s awesome, and its vague resemblance to the “Clique” beat is making Esoteric sound like prime Jay-Z. Also connecting the track to ’90s New York is this lyric: “You actin’ all big now, but you ain’t Christopher Wallace” — and, you know, the presence of two members of the Wu-Tang Clan.
