New Music: Purple Brick Road by @Raekwon ft. G-Eazy (Prod by @JusticeLeague) @g_eazy

For 25 years, Raekwon has been one of the most sought out voices in music; a true originator of lyricism, street fashion and inventive music. On 3-24-2017 the legendary emcee will release his seventh solo album The Wild. Released through his own IceH20 imprint along with EMPIRE, the album is a stark commentary on both the world and the music industry--everything is wild, Rae notes, alluding to his new album’s symbolic title.

With so much uncertainty in the world, it’s never been more apparent that this jungle needs order; and as the apex predator within hip-hop’s jungle, Raekwon plans to restore order with The Wild.

Now, via an exclusive premiere with Pitchfork, Raekwon unveils the anthemic “Purple Brick Road,” which features G-Eazy and is produced by J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League. “As I shift gears with my diversity, I want fans to see another side of a champion; my triumphs remain inimitable when making music for yesterday and today’s culture” Raekwon commented to Pitchfork. “G-Eazy is a master writer and he helped me create the greatest vision any artist could ask for; another great recipe from my skillful cookbook. This album is a circus of emotions. I hope you get a great seat to what I will display on The Wild. Get ready…”

Rae’s forthcoming new classic, The Wild, will be released on 3-24-17 and you can now pre-order the album at iTunes.

New Video: G-Eazy Speaks with Sway in the Morning (@G_Eazy @RealSway)

G-Eazy has an aura to him. Joking about being the most prolific struggle rapper as he takes a seat next to a fellow Oakland legend, G-Eazy is ready to dissect every aspect of the album he worked nonstop on for the last year as he enters the Sway in the Morning studios.

"This is my naked truth," G-Eazy says to Sway as they start to converse about the openness presented on his sophomore release, "When It's Dark Out." With songs ranging from the thunderous "Random" to the introspective "Sad Boy," this body of work has been eye-opening for many who have pressed play.

Between explaining the daunting task of finding a balance in music and personal things, Gerald discusses overcoming stage fright early on and his tendency to be overly detail oriented.

Taking calls from fans that have been with him since his mixtape days, it's easy to see that many people feel like they've been on this long journey to the top right along side the Oakland native. Transitioning into Lyrical Breakdown, we hear G-Eazy dissect the story behind the stand out track on his album featuring Kehlani titled "Everything Will Be Okay."
