This is off of the new album from producer/DJ BK-One (mostly known as Brother Ali's DJ). There's quite a few nice guest spots on the new album. Really surprised to see guests like Scarface, Black Thought & Raekwon in the mix as well. Not too bad for a virtually unknown indie MN producer. I'm digging the single...

Sounds like a must cop album. Hopefully it's better than Toki Wright's album, that piece of shit album was a waste of $8.

I thought Toki's album was alright. Better than I thought it would be since I only knew him as Brother Ali's hype man before. Not a standout, but not garbage IMO. Why did you buy it before listening? lol
Anyway, this BK-One joint does look nice.

I could do that. Though with a heavy-hitting track list like that, I'm sure google will be filled with linkage.

Your 2 favorites on the list huh? lol
Have you heard I Self? Not the best standout here, but definitely legit. Dude's been recording since 1988.

Not my two favorites (well Acey is probably #2, right behind Face), but when was the last time I Self put anything out? I haven't heard ish from him in a while

He's had 3 guest spots in the past 2 years according to this, but I know there's a couple more, because I have them....I can't pinpoint what they are...more local type stuff though. His sophomore solo album is dropping this year on Rhymesayers, supposedly. I'll check that because I do really dig "Self-Destruction" after giving it some spins. It's his best work IMO because he gets personal on the album with his lyrics, while he seemed detached from his lyrics throughout most of his career. Plus, Ant produces most of the album and the beats are smokin'!

Those other 2 I Self spots came from the 2007 Big Quarters album, and the 2008 Heiruspecs album. I'm sure there's more. He stays busy.

BTW, this album leaked (due for release 10/6...should be found easily by googling). I'll check the whole thing out this evening, but the handful I spun so far sound dope as hell.
