Hell Hath No Fury is the oft-delayed second album from the Virginia hip hop duo Clipse. It was released in late 2006. Like their debut album, Hell Hath No Fury features production handled solely by The Neptunes. The album features relatively few guest appearances, and those few are limited to members of the Star Trak roster, or Clipse's own group, the Re-Up Gang.

Overview

Unlike their debut, the material on Hell Hath No Fury is of a much darker tone, due to the their problematic relationship with Jive Records. From an interview with AllHipHop.com, in July of 2006: Jive Records is an American record label, owned by Sony BMG, and operates as a quarter of the Zomba Label Group. ... Year 2006 (MMVI) was a common year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

Delay

Clipse originally began recording material for Hell Hath No Fury in late 2003. However, further work on the album was halted in 2004, when Arista Records—their label at the time—was dissolved into its sister label Jive Records, as part of a larger merger between Sony Music Entertainment and BMG. Because of contractual issues, they were forced to stay with Jive. Year 2003 (MMIII) was a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

While Clipse resumed work on the album, and eventually finished its recording, its release was continuously delayed by Jive throughout the rest of 2004 and much of 2005. The album was further delayed when Clipse sued Jive, after the label refused to grant them a release from their contract. Their legal issues would not be resolved until May of 2006 ^[2] and despite this, the album still suffered delays; its original August 29 release date was changed to October 31, before a November 28 release date was finally settled upon.

Reception

Critical

The album received uncommonly strong reviews from both mainstream and rap publications, praising both the inventiveness of Clipse's lyrics and the exotic elements of The Neptunes' production. It's also notable that the album received significant praise from more rock-oriented media not traditionally known for support of non-alternative or drug-referencing hip hop, such as Rolling Stone.

The album has also been ranked at number one on Prefix Magazine's list of the best albums of 2006 [1], number nine on Blender Magazine's list of the 50 best albums of 2006 [2] and number seven on Pitchfork Media's list ("Trill" was also ranked at number six on its list of the top 100 songs of 2006). It also received a rare 'XXL' rating from XXL Magazine, becoming only the sixth album in the magazine's history to receive such a rating.
