Blak Madeen feat. Planet Asia – Guerrilla Soldiers [Audio]

Boston duo Blak Madeen proudly put their fists in the air with “Guerilla Soldiers,” a gritty new single off their upcoming album, ‘Supreme Aftermath,’ that features West Coast bully-rap icon Planet Asia. As soon as the Arcitype’s bruising beat hits your speakers, it’s clear that the track couldn’t have had a better guest than the Cali Agent, Nautical Pirate. His tough-guy raps like “Dump you on your face like a cigarette” provide a snarling dose of bravado that serves as a balancing act. Whereas PA sucker-punches the competition, Blak Madeen’s Al-J and Yusuf Abdul-Mateen stick to dizzying rhymes and slick wordplay (“off the wall like asbestos”). ‘Supreme Aftermath’ drops January 15th via Rhyme Dawah. Until then, you can stream both “Guerrilla Soldiers,” along with the project’s inaugural leak, “Long Way to Go,” featuring Gift of Gab of Blackalicious fame.

As DJ Vlad lists tracks off of Dr. Dre’s legendary “The Chronic” album, The D.O.C. recalls contributing to some of the biggest hits on the multi-platinum selling album. During the interview, he talked about working on “Nothin’ But A ‘G’ Thang” with Snoop Dogg telling DJ Vlad, “That was one of the first records that Snoop and I worked together on.” He said, “It was me imparting—if you will—to him the formula, for lack of a better way.” As The D.O.C. reminisced about working on most of the album, he admits further into the interview that his alcohol and drug habits may have been the reason behind his improper paperwork. “It’s not about them, it’s about me. I’m drinking everyday. I’m probably doing drugs everyday.”
