***Revered as two of the most prolific and intriguing MCs in Los Angeles, Aceyalone (of Freestyle Fellowship) and Abstract Rude (of Abstract Tribe Unique) have been collaborating for the past eight years and created several classics in the process (notably "Deep and Wide" and "B Boy Kingdom" on Aceylone's All Balls Don't Bounce and "Me and My Main" on the Beats and Lyrics 2 compilation). Their new 12-inch - which some magazines are already calling one of the best of the year - features on the A-Side "Rally Round the Home Team," produced by Fat Jack, a sure-shot anthem for L.A. and every radio deejay and turntablist. The AA-Side, "I Love It When a Plan Comes Together," produced by DJ 'D, showcases their extraordinary lyrical skills and the production talents of Massmen's newest producer. Both tracks have radio-ready versions and guarantee to create noise at all points. - Major talents of Los Angeles hip hop community
- Promotional tour dates in the U.S., Canada and Europe
- This 12-inch precedes a full-length featuring both artists
"Aceyalone's name is synonymous with L.A.'s subterranean hip hop community and his abstract approach to the genre has single-handedly crafted a new classification of rhythm technology. The poet/prophet has lyrically articulated the esoterics of life, rarely expressed or understood in modern music. Acey's insightful grasp and slick delivery often converts the mainstream suburbanite into a dedicated follower. Such a motivated individual with real inventiveness is a welcome change from the disheartening rhetoric saturating the rosters of most major labels." -Strength |
