The album includes recent singles It’s A Wrap, Cutthroat Game and Warfare which all have been making the rounds of mixshows and blogs in the past few months.
Kidd and Azariah initially linked up while working on the emcee’s Subject To Change LP back in 2006 and have remained close comrades ever since. In 2012 Kidd formed the Young Black And Gifted collective with Azariah as the main emcee but has also included work with such artists as Golden, King Righteous and Verse Essential under the collective’s banner. The group’s debut album Long Time Coming dropped in 2013.
Most recently Kidd Called Quest produced the recently released full-length project for YBG associate Jae Hussle entitled Reflections: A Story Of My Lifetime Vol 1.
