There was a time when I was on my dean as a blogger. At that time, I
stayed hearing new
Rasheed Chappell. At some point, I got a day job that kept (keeps?) my mad busy, but he's always been one artist I'd been looking out for, so it's dope that, in my own weekly game of catch-up, I get to experience a project like
First Brick, which finds Rasheed linking back up with the legend
Kenny Dope, seven years after
Future Before Nostalgia.
For those looking for that
real hip-hop shit, Ra and Kenny have you. This isn't just boom bap for boom bap's sake; Chappell is weaving tales, dropping jewels, and all-around making me proud to have been a fan back then to hear this right now.
You can stream (and download!) the full
First Brick project (which features everyone from
O.C. to
Lil Fame) below,
via Audiomack, or stream it through
the usual suspects.
