General Steele of Smif-N-Wessun/Boot Camp Clik fame and Burlington, Vermont-based producer Es-K present the music video for “Persistence”, the first single from their brand new collaboration album ‘Building Bridges’. “Persistence” features guest verses from VVS Verbal and Louie Skaggs, and the video was shot by Sisco.
Produced mostly by Es-K, ‘Building Bridges’ features guest appearances from Buckshot of Black Moon, Smoothe Da Hustler, Shabaam Sahdeeq, Rockness Monsta of Heltah Skeltah, and a posthumous cameo from his late great partner, Sean Price. As one half of Smif-N-Wessun, General Steele crashed the hip-hop scene in the 1990s with their debut album Dah Shinin’ (named a Top 100 Album Of All Time by The Source and a Top 50 Debut Album Of All Time by Complex). Their last release – 2011’s Monumental- was produced by Pete Rock, and Steele has also collaborated with Tupac Shakur, Mary J Blige, 50 Cent, Raekwon and Bounty Killer.
Es-K may be best known for his 2014 album Serenity (listen) as well as his ‘Spontaneous Grooves’ beat tape series, where every beat on each tape was made in one sitting each. A low-key display of introspective verses, classic cuts and jazz-inflected beats, ‘Building Bridges’ stays true to its name by bridging the gap between established artists and rising ones alike such as VVS Verbal, Shadow The Great of Loaf Muzik, Napoleon Da Legend, Mar’rz Atomz, Stage One, Louie Skaggs, Boone Bixby, Supreme The Eloheem (from the Representativz) and Coke as well as production from Hellfire Beats and Central Parks. DMC champion DJ Grazzhoppa contributes cuts alongside Hashfinger and Hellfire.
The cover art comes courtesy of Joe Buck, the artist behind the ‘De La Soul Is Dead’ cover art. ‘Building Bridges’ appears via Bucktown USA, the multi-media company General Steele created in 2004 alongside partner Cynical Smith, with digital distribution through Duck Down, including a limited-edition pressing of 500 records which will be available 02/12/16

Got two joints here from our ATL homie Rod McCoy that showcase his versatility, above we have the track ‘La$t Day’ featuring Frank P. Rod and Frank subjectively explore What if today was your last day? Would you go out and get it like it was the last opportunity to make a better future for your kids? Would you get it like it was your last chance fulfill a legacy?
Hell Yeah, Hustle and grind people!
The second track from Rod is ‘Pushin Dope’ where he links up with Australian based producer BryZone_YBP to deliver an elevatious record with wavy trap-like production and his tactical wordplay on display, imagine audio dope rather than illegal drug dealing!
