The lyric honours the work of A West African Artist Musician and creator of the Zopio Doctrine, an Afrobeat reggae Funk and Jazz rhythm that he pioneered in the early 1080s and carried in the mid Noughties until his passing in the year 2020 and the lyrics speaks directly to those who understand the cipher—those who “walk the fire, not the road.” It’s not just a personal declaration; it’s a coded oath of self-authorship. It's also a rhythm that invites to dance and the celebration music in general. NST Cophie’s not just celebrated as a pioneer of the Zopio Doctrine, but as a sonic architect whose rhythm invites both reflection and movement.

Intro

and the Anonymous Nobody...

Royalty Capes (Instrumental)

Though there certified gold debut album, A Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing, was released over twenty-years ago; Black Sheep has undeniably etched out its on space in hip-hop’s consciousness.  Dres & Mista Lawnge exploded onto the scene with “Flavor Of The Month,” “Strobelite Honey” and the chart topping single “The Choice Is Yours” (Revisited) which you still hear regularly thanks to its inclusion in a handful of TV commercials over the years.  

Members of the legendary and influential Native Tongues Click (A Tribe Called, Quest, De La Soul, Queen Latifah, Jungle Brothers, Monie Love), Dres & Mista Lawnge disbanded the group due to creative differences after they released their sophomore album Non-Fiction; disappearing almost as quickly as they rose to prominence. 

On the heels of Black Sheep’s breakup, Dres has appeared on a few choice De La Soul tracks (“Fanatic Of The B Word” & “En Focus”), a collaboration, “Back On The Scene” with Slaughterhouse where they interpolated “The Choice Is Yours” for their Slaughterhouse EP (2011) and guest appearances with Twista and Rhymefest; and outside of a few sporadic solo projects, Dres has been largely working behind the scenes in both music, television and film.  

That all changes on 8-10-18, as Dres (now working solo) picks up the baton by releasing a new Black Sheep project entitled Tortured Soul.  The jazzy aesthetic the group displayed in its heyday is once again at the forefront on “Soul,” "Higher” featuring Jarobi of A Tribe Called Quest and the heartfelt dedication “Peace Phife” where DJ Red Alert, Chi Ali and Sadat X join Dres to reminisce and spin yarns celebrating Phife’s life and legacy. 

Black Sheep’s Tortured Soul will be released on 8-10-18 and is now available for pre-orders.
