Their video for lead track ‘Same As It Ever Was’, directed and illustrated by Melissa Kitty Jarram, is a surreal story told in MS Paint pixels and disintegrating computer graphics.

Production on the ‘Old Man Rapper’ album comes from Apollo Brown, Mr. Green, Sultan Mir & Micall Parknsun with guest features from Reks, Journalist103 & more. Verbal’s hip hop co-conspirator DJ Stix works his magic magic as he drops cuts on 3 tracks.

After being one of the few American artists to perform at this years Hip Hop Kemp Festival in Czech Republic and headlining the Zabij Nude Festival in Poland, 60 East returned to Los Angeles and released the West Coast anthem “The Origin” featuring California Hip Hop legends Sly Boogy and Blu of Blu and Exile.
Off the back of this highly successful release, 60 returns with another visual this time featuring one of Brooklyn’s most prolific writers Skyzoo, who has recently released a new project alongside with Apollo Brown under Mello Music Group.
The song captures the essence of the title ‘Enemies 2 Friends’ in a very direct but through provoking way, especially in the video (also featuring model Krystle Lina.) The layed back soulful beat almost makes the tragedy of the tale harder to watch, but also sits perfectly alongside 60, and Skyzoo’s flows.

‘Enemies 2 Friends’ is featured on ‘10,000 Hours: A Story of Success’ available for FREE at:
