Chino XL feat. Eto - Grey Discipline

A selection from our second tape release: thrashflow.com/products/count-bass-d-begborrowsteel-cassette-dl-card

Next up for our second release is BEGBORROWSTEEL by Count Bass D. This was originally released by Count Bass D on CD in 2003 through his own imprint, CountBassD.com.  It was later released on February 21, 2004 as an EP on vinyl (JSV-001) with one bonus track and CD (OTCD-2038) with 4 bonus tracks, through Jazzy Sport/Octave. A worldwide release came later on RAMP Recordings (RAMP003) on Vinyl and CD which included instrumentals and 3 additional bonus tracks.

Count Bass D always intended BEGBORROWSTEEL to be released on cassette.  The original release in 2003 closes with the track, "Low Batteries."  The title is inspired by the moment a portable cassette player slows down because the batteries are running low.  We decided that it is only right to release BEGBORROWSTEEL the same way Count intended it to be released, so it ends with "Low Batteries."   

The tape comes with the original artwork from the 2003 CD release, a lyric booklet and a digital download card that includes all of the extra tracks from the later editions of BEGBORROWSTEEL. Finally there is one more bonus track for a total number of 8.

Underground rap trio Alpha Faktion have been hustling and building anticipation the past year for their next project, Creative Control. And today, all that hard work is clearly paying off with a banger of a lead single, “Creative Control,” produced by living rap legend Nottz.

For the uninitiated, the proudly independent group is made up of rapper/producer Azwun, rapper Kraze, and DJ Enyoutee, who had previous success as solo acts. They opted to join forces, however, and have been killing it together ever since. That much is evident throughout “Creative Control,” a neck-breaking anthem for any artist taking their career into their own hands.

Azwun and Kraze make their indie stance well-known throughout their verses, delivering bars like “I broke away from these chains/ man, these industry slaves/ They tried to manage, couldn’t handle the weight/ The wait’s over, motherf*cker/ Keep yo’ hands out the plate”; and “You look confused and I’m not surprised by the ignorance/ Force-feedin’ by hypocrites, team leaders, and simpletons.”

“Creative Control” is a mission statement and one hell of a way to kick off the rollout for their upcoming album of the same name. In addition to Nottz, the project boasts collaborators such as Marley Marl, Marco Polo, Planet Asia, DJ Spinna, and more. The single is now available for both stream and download through all major digital retailers.
