Cory Gunz — son of Peter Gunz, certified lyricist who torched his guest spot on Lil Wayne's "6 Foot 7 Foot" — links up with Shaquille O'Neal for "Kat & Brunson." Shaq's rap career dates back to 1993's *Shaq Diesel*, a platinum-selling album that was better than it had any right to be. Here they deliver two versions of the same concept: a standard cut and an extended challenge version. Cory Gunz has always been the kind of rapper other rappers respect — his chopper flow, multisyllabic rhyme schemes, and technical precision are well-established. The question with a project like this is always whether Shaq's presence elevates or distracts. Two tracks isn't much to build on, but Cory Gunz has a habit of making the most of limited real estate.
