Today (April 29), Styles P releases his eighth solo album, Phantom And The Ghost. The Yonkers, New York veteran lyricist and former Interscope Records star (in addition to his LOX deal with Bad Boy) is also making history, partnering with NMC (New Music Cartel) for the digital LP.

Twelve years after his solo debut, A Gangster And A Gentlemen released (and later certified gold), Styles is teaming with NahRight, 2DopeBoyz, YouHeardThatNew, DJ Booth, and other sites to drop his product, in conjunction with EMPIRE Distribution. While FADER and VICE have maintained labels, this is the largest platform from a Hip-Hop blog.

The 14-song LP includes appearances from Vado, Rocko, Raheem DeVaughn, in addition to both of S.P.’s LOX brothers.

With five solo albums in as many years, how does this stack up to Styles’ early works?
