Lynch By Inch (Suicide Note) is the 5th solo studio release by rapper Brotha Lynch Hung, released through his own Siccmade Music label on June 10, 2003 as a double album and followup to The Virus. It is his first solo album not released on Black Market Records.

Overview

Lynch By Inch (Suicide Note) is the first concept album from rapper Brotha Lynch Hung. Inspired by the (at the time) recent passing of his mother, as noted in the accompanying booklet underneath a picture of her: "You are my inspiration." The album chronicles the depression and events leading up to a fictional suicide attempt by the protagonist.

It is interesting to note that while most double albums evenly balance the material between the two discs so that the disc break is as close the middle of the work as possible, Lynch By Inch fills the first disc completely, with the remaining tracks going onto the second disc. The end result is a second disc much shorter than the first, with the added effect of introducing a disc break during the building climax of the album.
