In the pantheon of prestige rap, it never gets fancier than a Clipse reunion. While Pusha T and Malice predated the whole "play this street rapper at New York Fashion Week" motif, their stylishly spare soundscapes and high-brow dexterity made them couture rap before couture rap.

The duo's new album Let God Sort Em Out is its first project since 2009's Til the Casket Drops, and it boasts plenty of coke-infused bars, subliminal digs, and a sleek array of beats courtesy of longtime artistic partner Pharrell to tie it all together.

Pusha T confirmed Jay-Z was invited to rap on Let God Sort Em Out but never replied with a verse, leaving his absence on the Clipse album unexplained.
