Season of da Siccness: The Resurrection is the debut studio album by American rapper Brotha Lynch Hung, released on February 28, 1995, by Black Market Records.
Background
Mann recorded and mixed the album in 1994 at Enharmonic Studio, Sacramento, California. The album is dedicated to Q-Ball (as stated in the album booklet), Mann's cousin who was murdered around the time of the album's creation. The song 'Liquor Sicc' touches on subjects of dealing with his death and retaliation. Personnel on the album include Brotha Lynch Hung, Mr. Doctor, Ron Foster, X-Raided, Zigg Zagg, Zoe, Sicx, Hyst, and Babe Reg. [1] Mann has stated that he produced, mixed and mastered the entire album himself, which to this day is the only album in which he has done this.[ citation needed] The album was reprinted and re-released in 2005 as the original Black Market pressing is out of print. This re-release is distributed by IDN Distribution.

The album reached #13 on Billboard's Heatseekers chart, #26 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, and #163 on the Billboard 200. [3] It gained 4.5 stars out of 5 from allmusic. In 2009, Fangoria named it as an iconic horrorcore album. [4]
Controversy
In September 1996, Joseph Edward "Bubba" Gallegos, an 18-year-old from Bayfield, Colorado, killed his roommates after ingesting methamphetamine and listening repeatedly to Locc 2 Da Brain, a song from the album. After attempting to kill his ex-girlfriend and taking two other students hostage, Gallegos was killed by police. Gallegos was said to be a massive fan of Brotha Lynch Hung, and his minister suggested that the music played a role in the killings, although he provided no evidence to back up that claim. [5] [6]
