This has been a sort of passion project of mine. I love this song and I had no choice but to remix it! I couldn't resist. The original song is just dripping with genuine passion and a certain soulfulness which is something I've always associated with music coming out of New Zealand. It's a subtle style or finesse that shines through that I never hear with music from other countries. You can feel the heart and soul of the music in a unique way. I don't know how else to describe it other than calling it that special kiwi factor! And personally, I think many artists from New Zealand are slept on, big time.

I worked extremely hard on this remix and I'm very proud of myself. Not only did I do the remix, I also completed the mixdown and master myself (as usual). But on top of that, I also challenged myself to create the cover art, as well as animate this fun music video to accompany it. I'm not a complete stranger to graphic design and animation, having done a sprinkling of both during my career so far. But this is probably the first time I've completely taken charge and created all the creative assets for a release myself. And I think it looks pretty good. ☺️

I hope you enjoy the song! And if you do, please show me some love. Like, share it with someone you love, comment and tell me what you like about the song. This kind of thing really helps to get the algorithm working in our favour and helps my music reach new ears, converting those people into funk heads 😛🤙

Love you!
- Evan

NOISEY Premiere: http://bit.ly/1Aarsu4
Hip-Hop and Police have a long history of butting heads. While artists have adopted the role of liberating the people and stretching the boundaries of activism through music, the police aim to keep the status quo in tact. Naturally, this makes things difficult for those who just feel like having a little fun. On "Suffolk's Most Wanted," eastern LI-natives Diabolic and R.A The Rugged Man join forces to crate an entirely new definition of entertainment, full of bars detailing their full throttle antics. Both R.A. and Bolic come correct over the animated, bouncy production, courtesy of The Snowgoons (Germany). "Suffolk's Most Wanted" is the 2nd leak, taken from Diabolic's forthcoming sophomore LP, Fightin Words, which is set to drop on CD and digital download on September 16th through Diabolic's War Horse Records imprint. Fightin Words is now available for pre-order via iTunes!

Krs One - BDP Love's Gonna Get'cha (Material Love)

Lyrics:


Yo! we in there, yeah yeah (*repeats*)

[KRS-One]
The type of lyrical terrorism that I present
Educates people, at the same time pays my rent
You've been hearin me now for the past twelve semesters
When the suckers stepped up, I had to use the drastic measures
I know you want to step to me kid!
But you're thinkin, "Damn, Kris is kinda big!"
Plus he rolls wit a crew that don't care
And drops a hit album, hit video, hit single every year
From your eye drops a tear
I don't play that shit, I play that hit
Your whole gangsta image is not legit
You heard _Criminal Minded_, and bit the whole shit
Now if I punch you in your face I'd be wrong
Don't even think about battling with a song
You'll be gone, your career ain't strong enough to call my bluff
You ain't rough, you ain't tough, you'll be handcuffed
With your ribcage crushed
Naked in a box, with multicolored tube socks
You know my FUCKIN name
Blastmaster KRS is thinkin LONG range!

Yeah we in there, yeah yeah (repeat 4X)

[KRS-One]
They are in there, like you'll soon be in prison
(You await and this is faggot, your ass you'll be given)
Who you kiddin?  You're only tryin to rock a party
You ain't really down to shoot nobody
So why you frontin?  Sayin from the cops you be runnin
In jail in a pair of panties you look just stunning
You pop all that wannabe shit on vinyl
Until your ass is bein pumped by some faggot named Lionel
In jail you ain't got respect
You a fairy, I'll be takin your commisary
And the picture of your sister, mister
As seamy as Pee-Wee Herman, I ain't trying to diss her
This ain't no bullshit game and I ain't changed
I'm just thinkin LONG range
People died so I can rhyme..
you think I'm gonna grab the mic and waste my nation's time?
Step up with that weak shit
You're psychologically, historically, and spiritually sick
Plus you're on my dick
Changin the subject, your rhyme style ain't correct
You know my FUCKIN name!
Blastmaster KRS is thinking LONG range!

Yeah we in there, yeah yeah (*repeats*)

This is the part where the ladies get ill (yeah, yeah)
This is the part where the fellas get ill (yeah, yeah)
This is the part where East Coast gets ill (yeah, yeah)
This is the part where the West Coast gets ill (yeah, yeah)
