Ghostface “Twelve Reasons to Die” Tour. Ghostface Killah recently released his 10th studio album entitled “Twelve Reasons to Die” which is a concept album in collaboration with Adrien Younge and executive produced by the RZA. The album is set in Italy in the 1960s and tells the story of Tony Starks, an enforcer for the DeLuca crime family. After an affair with the boss’ daughter, Tony is murdered and his body is melted into 12 vinyls that, when played resurrect him as the Ghostface Killah. Ghost performed here in Philly at The Blockley with local talent opening up for him. True to form, the performance was enthralling and animated with a re-enacting of the album’s storyline, complete with narration, costume changes, and of course the onstage resurrection of the Ghostface Killah.
