William Cooper feat. Planet Asia – Morpheus Prophecies [Stream]

In the groundbreaking box-office giant, The Matrix, Morpheus explains to Neo that the Matrix is an illusionary world designed to prevent humans from discovering that they are slaves to an outside influence. William Cooper and west coast veteran Planet Asia join forces on “Morpheus Prophecies” to echo Morpheus’s wisdom from the 1999 film. “The red or blue pill, chose your reality”, is what Cooper spits on the song’s hook, followed by, “…down the rabbit hole we go, knowledge is wealth…”. William Cooper and PA Medallions clearly slang the red pill (the truth) over a BP produced head-nodder sharing timeless knowledge of the mysterious matrix that we all seem to play a part in. “Morpheous Prophecies” is on William Cooper’s album “God’s Will” due out May 5th.

Tech N9ne feat. Corey Taylor – Wither [Stream]

“Special Effects”, May 4. Pre-order now. “When you’re a natural nice guy, people around you pick at you with so much with bullshit that you start getting tired,” Tech tells Loud Wire. “The good guy starts withering away. So when I was explaining it to Corey, I was like, ‘I’m slowly turning into an a–hole and I like it.’ “I don’t care, they say my angel glow is subsiding / I’m sliding outside of these high-beams and I won’t dare / Try to mend this tare / I love I’m fading / The good once there is just dying / So I’m withering away and I’ma trigger when I spray / And I’m attacking everybody till the feeling’s gone!” So much love to get disrespect in return. You gonna wither away and be like, ‘Fuck you.’”
