Are you in need of an emcee who speaks his mind and is never afraid to keep it real? If so, we highly recommend REKS, an underground veteran who is preparing for the long-awaited release of his new album Revolution Cocktail.
Included on the 20-track LP are Booth-featured singles "Judas," "Ahead Of My Time," "Caged Bird" and "Mighty Mouse Trap Rap." Joining the Massachusetts native on Revolution Cocktail are special guests Bishop Lamont, J NICS, Rapper Big Pooh, Sha Stimuli, Torae and more. Production credits include, but are not limited to, ATG, Hazardis Soundz, Lee Bannon, MoSS, Numonics and Statik Selektah.
Revolution Cocktail is currently set for release on Tuesday, July 2. The album will be available for purchase on iTunes.
