With "Welcome To: Our House" only a week away, it makes sense for Slaughterhouse to drop a free mixtape to get heads hyped up for their new album - or does it? Does Slaughterhouse need the extra hype? Their 2009 debut album put the world on notice that the concept of hip-hop supergroups was not dead. Each of the individual artists involved had been a success to some degree, particularly Joe Budden and Royce Da 5'9", but combining with Crooked I and Joell Ortiz elevated all four to a level they had never seen before. Their collaboration resulted in an informal rap game of "top this 16" in each song, and instead of causing consternation it created camraderie as the crew crafted memorably humorous raps over hella bangin' beats. Critical acclaim soon followed.There's little doubt a new full length album from Slaughterhouse is heavily anticipated by hip-hop heads. The best case scenario for "On the House" then would be that all of these songs are original, previously unheard, dope material somehow not good enough for the final album. DatPiff tags each song as an EXCLUSIVE in their description, and since the song titles don't seem to duplicate the Amazon MP3 tracklisting we will have to take their word for it. Just to be sure though I cross-refenced leaked songs that have been transcripted and didn't see "Hammer Dance" or "My Life" among others out of these 13 songs. So with NO repeats that begets a far more important question - why not save this material for a double disc, or use them as bonus tracks for an in-store exclusive? No one will turn down free Slaughterhouse songs, but for a group as admired and respected as they are, it's not like selling these songs would be that hard.$sb("ohhl003_e1905d66760761d80f85b5fa876e5442","sbFeed":"partnerId":305,"type":"youtube","contentId":"JOQBvyjGVfw","cname":"ohhla","style":"width":480,"height":400);google.load("ima", "1");
