New collaborative joint featuring Craig G from BurntMD’s forthcoming album, Not So Black & White. I am excited to hear what this album has to offer. I have been listening to BurntMD for a few years now and my own point of view is that he is severely underrated, which really makes the collabo with Craig G appropriate because I think he has been under appreciated throughout his career.
Cold Heat put me on to this cut from the venerable, Craig G. Shine Box is filled with Craig G. verbally humiliating all walks of hip hop artist and reminding them that they are not fit for the trade. Craig G. every once in a while has to bring the thunder to remind these mortals what the Legends are capable of.

Note:
You know what upsets me? People telling me that Cold Heat is an up and coming hip hop group. Damn! These guys have been around for a while and working with some of the most storied artists in the NYC. Quit acting like Jak Daniels and Johnny Walker are a couple of new jacks. There album from 2006, Bar Hoppin’ is one of the most slept on albums in the last five years.
It’s Cold Heat, baby! Jak Danielz and Johnnie Walker are back with some more burnerz for your IPod. Both of these tracks are coming off of their forthcoming album, Raising The Bar. That album should be dropping on July 12th. If you are not familiar with their previous work it is time to do so. They really put together some great music. They are known for working with some of hip hop’s finest artists, but don’t get it twisted. Jak Danielz is an iillll spitter. He has a flow that makes you do a double take and these tracks are no different. Enjoy these jawns until the album drops, then be sure to cop.
