Brooklyn veteran spit kicker Shabaam Sahdeeq has returned with his fifth studio album, Keepers Of The Lost Art. The relentless lyricist delivers a body of work that puts his lyrical aptitude at the forefront, while placing an emphasis on top shelf production and cuts, courtesy of Ran Reed, Lewis Parker, DJ Dister, DJ Ready Cee and DJ Skizz, to name a few.

What originally started as 40 tracks, 'Keepers Of The Lost Art' was eventually boiled down to 20, reflecting S-Dub's most comprehensive long play release to date. The LP details his motivation to stay in the game and fight for the culture with bars as tough as the mic in his hand. The production runs the gamut from laid back as exemplified by the nostalgic piano chords on the Lewis Parker produced "Walk with the Light," to electrifying, as demonstrated by the DJ Skizz produced street banger "That Dope," which boasts features from Brooklyn's premiere panderer Wais P, and the lyrically sharp Sha Stimuli. And complain no more club deejays, Shabaam has you covered for a dance friendly cut to spin late Friday nights with the DJ Wonder produced "Fall In Line." It's safe to call it a comeback as his rhymes are as polished today, as they were when he made his Rawkus debut in '97 with "Arabian Nights" B/W "Side 2 Side."

Artistically, the album cover reveals a scenario where Hip-Hop's younger generation discovers the cultural keepsakes of yesteryear. From a solid gold boombox, to jewel crusted crowns, drum machines, and outboard gear, S-Dub is here to confront the generational disconnect, as spelled out on the Eric Rico featured "Grown Man Hustle" -- "Some of these young boys consider me a throwback, I birthed your style you need to give me my flow back," spits S-Dub. When explaining the album cover, Shabaam states: "Imagine the world came to an end in an apocalypse and some kids survived in a bunker. Now when the dust settles and the smoke is gone, the kids come out the bunker and discover a treasure chest in an old music store that contains all the elements of Hip-Hop, and started having fun with it." Whether you see it as a time capsule or the last defense of Hip-Hop's watchmen, Keepers Of The Lost Art could be played ten years ago, today, and ten years from now with high praise. 

'Keepers of the Lost Art' includes guest features from the likes of Tragedy Khadafi, REKS, El Gant, Wais P, Sha Stimuli, Skyzoo, F.T., Mic Handz, General DV (DV Alias Khrist), Spit Gemz, and Bekay among others, and becomes available April 22nd via digital download and CD, through Below System.

Rolack's Ft. Skyzoo

With his third full length solo album a month away, Skyzoo preps his lyric lovers fan base with the buzz single "Suicide Doors". The song, produced by DC's own MarcNfinit, is a 4 plus minute barrage of double entendres. Overflowing with Skyzoo's signature 'frisbees', the track leaves listeners with lines on top of lines to decipher. 

"I wanted this record to really remind people of what I do as far as entendres go. The double and even triple meanings, the layering, the stacking, I wanted that be the foundation for this song. Being that the album itself is based on storytelling more so than anything else, I wanted to have at least one record where I just let it all fly. The funny thing about it though, is that even with all of the lines coming 100 miles a minute, the album's storyline is still woven within the hook and as well as certain moments of the song".

"Suicide Doors" is available now for direct download when pre-ordering "Music For My Friends" on itunes at http://smarturl.it/MFMF

Rihanna - BBHM$ (Infuze, Father Dude, !llmind Cover) Ft Skyzoo K!NG Z3US Yung Fusion Emilio Rojas

Following the release of the leak single 'Suicide Doors', Skyzoo returns with the official first single off of Music For My Friends; "Luxury". The track, featuring Buffalo new comer Westside Gunn on the hook, is best described by Sky as "a New York trunk knocker". Sky further explains:

"The idea behind the record was to put together something that really felt like the city. Something that really felt like the NY that I know and grew up in. From the content to the beat, it feels like expensive cars driven by guys from down the block who figured out a way to get whatever they want and celebrate those realizations. That's how the city looked and felt to me growing up, and I wanted to build something like that for this generation that still tied into the album's overall theme of innocent ignorance and misguided desires".

Production wise, the song finds Skyzoo behind the boards for the first time, with coaching of course from his longtime collaborator !llmind. "I had this idea for what the song should be sonically, but I had trouble getting that from the producers I went to at the time. I decided to try to man the machine myself, but there was no way I was gonna be able to pull it off without my man !llmind and his genius talents playing Steve Kerr and coaching my efforts. I went to him with the idea, picked the drums, the loop, the change ups, etc, and he then helped orchestrate it and bring it to life". 

Additionally, the video for "Luxury" has been shot and is in the works for an early June release. 

Skyzoo's third solo album, "Music For My Friends", hits stores June 23rd via First Generation Rich Inc./Empire and can be pre-ordered here: http://smarturl.it/MFMF

Luxury (feat. Westside Gunn)

With seven days left and counting until the highly anticipated Music For My Friends hits stores, Skyzoo presents the vinyl/cassette only bonus track, "Hands Folded Together", featuring Detroit wordsmith Elzhi. Produced by Skyzoo's touring DJ and Mobile Kitchen's own DJ Prince, the grit and soul in the track is exactly what the two punchline specialists needed to flex on. 

Says Sky of the song; "our fans and supporters have been requesting a full-on Skyzoo & Elzhi bar fest for some time now. While working on MFMF, my man DJ Prince played me this beat, and upon hearing it I felt like now was the perfect time to put it all in motion and get the festivities underway. The song is just a full on barrage of lyrics, true pen work at its finest indeed. The beat is exactly what a Skyzoo & Elzhi record should sound like, and if you know El and I, you know what to expect and then some. This one was strictly for our die-hard supporters who know what our reps were built on". 

While only available to own via the upcoming vinyl and cassette versions of the album, you can stream the song here now. The album, "Music For My Friends", features Jadakiss, Black Thought, Bilal, !llmind, Jahlil Beats, Apollo Brown and more, and hits stores and online retailers June 23rd via First Generation Rich, Inc./Empire, and can be pre-ordered here: http://smarturl.it/MFMF

The Other Guys: Realer Than Most (feat Skyzoo)

from the upcoming album "The Easy Truth"
https://geo.itunes.apple.com/us/album/the-easy-truth/id1134294581?app=itunes
Premiered @ Mass Appeal on August 4th

After years of mutual respect, circling each other in collaborations, tours, style and respect, two titans of their craft have finally collided in Apollo Brown & Skyzoo’s “The Easy Truth.” The album is everything you’ve dreamt it would be: breakneck instrumentals and syllables crafted to make your head spin. The marriage between Detroit instrumentals and NYC wordplay has never been more cohesive. Themes range from police brutality to NY ambitions; Skyzoo shows you the world the way he sees it. 

Recorded and produced in Detroit, “The Easy Truth,” is the perfect distillation of hiphop influences. Every moment on the album is a loaded question, a perspective positing a notion of truth, the convergence of grit and symphony. 

Joining the artists on the record are Joell Ortiz, Westside Gunn, Stalley, Conway and Patty Crash, a reciprocal band of guests that only add depth and richness to the duo’s chemistry. Coming September 30th, “The Easy Truth,” is true to its titular description: honest, fluid, and organic.

Today we have another single from the hard hitting duo of Apollo Brown & Skyzoo. The team is back again with assistance from two of the rawest MCs in the game: Westside Gunn and Conway. Skyzoo dances through wordplay like nobody else can while Apollo's beats establish himself as one of the most elite to ever do it. Every note and syllable reinforces the the pairing's chemistry. The latest addition to the album's reveal is a look into the underbelly of New York- a black and white examination of classic styles.

Lead single off Skyzoo's upcoming album 'A Dream Deferred' out Oct. 2nd on The Faculty/Duck Down Music Inc.

"The idea behind Jansport Strings is not based on it being literal, but more so in the figurative sense. As a kid in NY, the strings on your Jansport bag were a sign of power and presence. Kids would steal the strings off of each other's bags and burn the tips to prevent getting robbed of them once they got them. The song is a 3 minute auto-bio of me as a kid in Brooklyn and seeing more than my friends and I had bargained for. In essence, my Jansport strings tied it all together, seeing what we all saw and what it made us. The ending is a clip from Video Music Box, the legendary NYC video show run by DJ Ralph McDaniels. This episode in particular was the debut of Chi-Ali's 'Age Ain't Nothin But A Number'. Seeing that video that day on this episode of VMB made me start rhyming. This clip was literally the moment that changed my life." -Skyzoo
