“Ultimate Rapper 5000 Guillotine” Excellently Demonstrates Tha God Fahim’s Artistic Dexterity (EP Review)
New EP & the 68th overall from Atlanta, Georgia emcee/producer Tha God Fahim. Starting as an affiliate of Griselda Records as well as being 1/3 of the Dump Gawds alongside Mach-Hommy & Your Old Droog, we also can’t ignore the massive discography that he’s managed to build for himself, some of the standouts include Breaking Through tha Van Allen Belts & Dump Assassins. He’s been putting out amongst his best material in the past few years like the Camoflauge Monk-produced Dark Shogunn Assassin, the Nature Sounds-backed Iron Bull & the Nicholas Craven-produced Dump Gawd: Shot Clock King series, the Oh No-produced Berserko, the Mike Shabb-produced Dump Gawd: Rhyme Pays, Tha Supreme Hoarder of All Pristine Wealth, Supreme Dump Legend: Soul Cook Saga produced by Cookin’ Soul & Machine Gun Vocabulary produced by Cartune Beatz. Coming off a Slam Dump with Drega33 earlier this week, the Ultimate Rapper 5000 Guillotine has emerged.
“50 Lunch Numbers” proves to be a great taste of what to expect whether it be the self-produced boom bap beat or the sharp lyricism talking about how nobody can take his musical accomplishments away from him whereas “My Off Day” goes for a jazzier vibe working when he wasn’t scheduled to. “Miseducation” hooks up some dusty vibraphones recalling a lot of people he knew having guns before graduating high school while “Mic Clutchin’” brings back the jazz suggesting separation can be for the best sometimes.
Meanwhile on “Modern Marvel”, we have Fahim going for a lo-fi boom bap vibe breaking & building empires leading into “Reigning Victor” talking about his state of mind scarily being out of planetary. “Tha Coming of Shogunn” keeps things in the basement instrumentally comparing his discography to a library of knowledge just before “Tha Dump” talks about his imperviousness. “Illusions of tha Mind” shits on those who’re still hating over a guitar & “Mortal Wounds” featuring Jay NiCE ends by thanking God they’re true Gs.
The only time we really got to hear Tha God Fahim over his own production in 2025 was the 42% of Dump Gawd: Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap 15 (Final Explosion) that he did all by himself & Ultimate Rapper Guillotine 5000 makes up for the last few installments of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap saga with the most I’ve enjoyed a project of his since Lethal Weapon 4. After spending the last 13 months sharpening his sword, he jumps back behind the board to prove that he hasn’t lost a step in that department.
Score: 9/10
