It’s far from rare to hear golden age veterans (or new skool artists with a strong affinity for the era) claim they’re bringing back that classic boombap, yadda, yadda, yadda. Alarm bells go off, because we’ve all heard the dull throwbacks that follow cookiecutter attempts to recreate former magic.

That being said, Jeru Tha Damaja actually backs up his claim with this particular song. A spacy beat by Large Pro, laced with Jeru’s mathematical flair and scientific sidenotes. If ‘Solar Flares’ is any indication, his upcoming EP The Hammer, which also features contributions by PF Cuttin and the Beatnuts, should bang.

After dropping subterranean classics with Sidewalk Science and Concrete Soul, Brick City veteran Beneficence is back with a new album, Basement Chemistry; which will be released on 1-29-2016 via Ill Adrenaline Records. 

Armed with the true sounds of the golden era, Benef drops rejuvenated flows and shares mics with hip-hop's elite lyricists on Basement Chemistry, including Inspectah Deck, Masta Ace, MC Eiht, El Da Sensei, AG, Dres and Chubb Rock among others.  Once again the Artifacts affiliate traps the listener into slick, thought provoking rhymes backed by hard hitting yet soulful production from DJ Spinna, Da Beatminerz, Confidence and L'Orange.

The album's formula stays true to the game, official boom-bap, with obscure samples and intricate cuts; which the albums first leak, “Digital Warfare” featuring Inspectah Deck more then verifies.

Billboard Premiere

For 25 years, Raekwon has been one of the most sought out voices in music; a true originator of lyricism, street fashion and inventive music. On 3-24-2017 the legendary emcee will release his seventh solo album The Wild. Released through his own IceH20 imprint along with EMPIRE, the album is a stark commentary on both the world and the music industry--everything is wild, Rae notes, alluding to his new album’s symbolic title.

With so much uncertainty in the world, it’s never been more apparent that this jungle needs order; and as the apex predator within hip-hop’s jungle, Raekwon plans to restore order with The Wild.

On the eve of the release of his new classic, Raekwon premieres the remix for “This Is What It Comes Too” with Billboard.  “Ghost is my brother and we’ve been on this blessed journey for awhile now” Raekwon commented to Billboard.  “Me and Ghost are an institution and I know the fans were calling for a remix; so this is what it comes to; Ironman Lunch Mix”

The remix for “This Is What It Comes Too” f/ Ghostface Killah will be included as a special bonus track on The Wild.
