KRS-One, A.G. & Tragedy Khadafi – Modern Day Gangsta [Stream]

“Modern Day Gangsta” is a verbal threat, a written retaliation to the current state of corruption riddling broad levels of our systems of authority. This wake up call to the passive, launches with TRAGEDY KHADAFI drawing comparison between political domination and ruling in the streets, with the lyrical finesse of a veteran steeped in 30 years of Queensbridge history. KRS ONE returns as “The Teacha”, educating us on the infiltration of corporate America by gangster tacticians. A.G. (DITC) characterizes one of the numerous victims of police murder with a sombre hostility that draws a firm line in the pavement. Three of Hip Hop’s luminaries combine over baneful strings delivered in a landscape of energy by producer STRICKNINE (MF Grimm, Thirstin Howl, Blaq Poet) to re-establish a message that is more relevant now than ever before: “I think it’s time we all stand up”.

This is the world we live in…. But what about the couples that do make it? While these examples maybe few and far between, they are out there and they are all inspirational in their own right. See, Papoose and Remy Ma. Many of you know Pap & Remy’s story, the trials and tribulations they have endured not only as a couple; but as a family. While the upcoming season of Love & Hip-Hop will surely delve deeper into the couples day-to-day, with “Michael Jackson” f/ Remy Ma & Ty Dolla $ign, Papoose delivers what he describes as an “autobiographical and audio testament to me and Remy’s story; a story of true and enduring love”! “Michael Jackson,” exclusively premiered
