Single You Out: Apathy – The Order (prod. by DJ Premier)

Apathy-1

Apathy is back with his third single, The Order, from the forthcoming album, The Widow’s Son, which drops on March 2nd.  This time he is backed with that prometheus type fire from the one and only DJ Premier.  Demigodz and the gawd unite for some serious man business.  It’s a great union, as Ap sounds really fluid over the legend’s production.  If you aren’t looking forward to this project, then you probably aren’t welcome here.

 

Single You Out: Diabolic – Diabolical Sound (prod. by DJ Premier)

artworks-000088560360-qa2a5c-t500x500

Diabolic scores a major win for his forthcoming album, Fightin’ Words, with this DJ Premier produced single.  Now to be perfectly honest, if I didn’t see the credit, I wouldn’t have been able to ID this as Primo production.  It certainly has a dark sound which suits Diabolic just fine.  He flings words at the listener that leave us scrambling to keep up with the ill metaphors and wordplay.  Album drops in late September.

Bekay – All for the Cash (Video)

I am breaking that rule again where I refuse to showcase freestyles over someone else’s beats.   I just can’t simply ignore the fact that Bekay went in over this DJ Premier beat, so I was forced to break my rule or else commit a worse sin and not share this with you.  You can find this track on J-Ronin’s Freestyle Files Vol. 2.

I am a big fan of Bekay’s work and I understand he is working on a new album,  SURVIVORMAN.  Got to keep checking back for that.

Note:

I was modestly excited about this project. I say modestly because usually when a collective like this comes together for an album the expectations far exceed the product.  With that being said, that is not the  case with this album.  This album is incredibly refined with proper production and scintillating rhyme schemes.  KILLmatic is a complete project.
