A full length album from Royal Fam frontman Timbo King has been pushed back and shelved over and over again, going on about 15 years by now. The wait is finally over for both Timbo and his fans as "From Babylon to Timbuk2" will be released via Nature Sounds on August 30. I believe the LP will be absolute nuts as Timbo King always been a standout emcee to me, and the new single below proves he's still as sharp as ever. The track, which is called "High Ranking" also features a crazy R.A. The Rugged Man verse and the beat is nothing but certified Bronze Nazareth heat. Props to Etze. TURN IT UP!!
Edit: Thanks to The_Silencer, you can also check out a rip of Timbo King up at the Halftime Radio Show promoting the upcoming album.
Michigan Wu affiliate and awesomely talented producer Bronze Nazereth readies his sophomore release "School For The Blindman"...
As per usual, Bronze takes that 90's aesthetic that made those old Wu records so dope and transplants it to 2011 for this cut, that finds him and the Rza going off and kicking real raps for ya...
Check for "School For The Blindman" on September 13th, via iHipHop Distribution, it's set to feature Inspectah Deck, Masta Killa, Canibus, Killah Priest and The Wisemen.
It is a remix album that combines Wu-Tang member Ghostface Killah with the sounds of vintage African funk, high-life, and psychdelic rock.
Released in July 2011, Ghostfunk pairs one of my favorite hip-hop artists, Wu-Tang member Ghostface Killah, with vintage African funk, high-life, and psychedelic rock music. Artwork by Joe Dichiara
