NEW SINGLE: Jay Electronica - The Ghost of Christopher Wallace

Too much Diddy, not enough Jay? Perhaps, but the track still leaves me wanting more Jay.

"The game ain’t been the same since B.I.G died
and Wu swarmed on New York from out that beehive
Don’t talk to me bout MC’s got skill
Don’t talk to me bout whose the king of the hill
Don’t talk to me bout whose the best alive or whose in your top 5
Cause he’s not ill
Real recognize real, stick to your deal
Try to make a cool mill off the single
With that ringtone appeal
In 3 years, you’ll be nil"

 Jay Electronica feat. Sean 'Puffy' Combs - The Ghost of Christopher Wallace

New Jay Electonica! 'A Million In The Morning'

Inspired by:

"Follow Gavin Mcinnes as he stays awake for 5 Days with ZERO sleep, Documenting the World Movie Watching Championship. As 8 contestants compete for a Guinness Book World Record “Most consecutive movies watched without sleeping.” Gavin quickly looses his shit and the film takes a sharp left turn into the depths of insanity and the disturbing underbelly of the american subconscious… Soundtrack by JAY ELECTRONICA, DJ Honda, RJD2, EL-P, The Death SET and others."

In case you didn't already know, Ski is a legendary producer who started out in the 80s as MC Will-Ski. After callign it quits on the rapping game, he decided to focus solely on producing and contributed 4 tracks to Jay-Z's 'Reasonable Doubt' ("Dead Presidents," "22 Two's", "Politics as Usual," and "Feelin' It."). He's also worked with the likes of Fat Joe, Camp Lo and AZ.
