View from Masada is the second studio album by the rapper Killah Priest, released in 2000.[2] [3] The Enhanced CD portion contains a video of "What Part of the Game?", with Ras Kass.
The album peaked at No. 73 on the Billboard 200.[4]
Despite his affiliation with the Wu-Tang Clan, none of its members appear on the album.[5] View from Masada was produced principally by Wiz and Just Blaze.[6]
Exclaim! wrote: "Now trying to mesh his spiritual allusions with party-rocking lyrics, Killah Priest predictably fails to do either very well."[5] The Hartford Courant deemed the album "an eclectic reflection of the everyday battle between heaven and hell."[7] The Boston Herald thought that "Priest confuses matters on View From Masada, adopting a part-time gangsta persona that allows him to play both sides of the street in a way that seems cynical, given his previous street-tough idealism."[8]
