P.L.O. ft. Has-Lo, Zilla Rocca & Curly Castro "The Heat (American Language Remix)"

P.L.O. ft. Has-Lo, Zilla Rocca & Curly Castro "The Heat (American Language Remix)": I'd work a new set of thoughts on this, but I wrote the copy that went out with the promo, so I'll just Ctrl+C then Ctrl+Z - Last month, the Associated Minds and Eatgood Records camps leaked "The Heat", a track from their collaborative EP, The Highball. On it, P.L.O. laid down a razor-sharp guitar-driven instrumental masterpiece for Sonnyjim and Mudmowth to speak some of those dirty, distinguished English bars, reppin' the UK Hip Hop scene properly. The geniuses over at Associated Minds figured the world needed a special US version of this banger of a track, and enlisted Philly triumervate of Zilla Rocca, Curly Castro and Has-Lo to sink their collective teeth into that beast. To put a true Hip Hop spin on it, the decision to revisit Smoothe Da Hustler & Trigga Da Gambler's classic "Broken Language" opened up a sly framework for these three to slice and dice this beat to pieces. You've got Kanye shruggin', pill pushin', spoon bendin', rhyme twistin' intricate actions broken down in that style. Thus, the "American Language" remix you have before you!

As mentioned, Associated Minds & Eatgood Records will be unleashing The Highball EP. Zilla Rocca is pushing the magnificent Bad Weather Classic EP. Curly Castro is yelling through police sirens on his debut LP Winston's Appeal. And Has-Lo is receiving loads of praise for his Mello Music Group-distributed album In Case I Don't Make It. Support quality hip hop, or we'll have to turn into the hate-spewin', cigar-chewin', ratchet-holdin', knife-wieldin' henchmen and force you to partake.
