Craving some pure, uncut underground freshness – you know, the kind of music that the phrase “real hip-hop” was invented to describe? Well, you’ve hit the jackpot. Today, The Darkest Cloud duo 1982 are back on our front page to stir up a little buzz for their forthcoming LP with The Lottery, a record that didn’t make it onto the final tracklist. Cooked up this past weekend “under the influence of Ciroc and other substances,” unreleased cut finds heavyweight DJ/producer Statik Selektah slicing and dicing a sample from somewhere deep in his record collection (I couldn’t ID it – can you?) as fellow Massachusetts native Termanology shows off his lyrical chops, spitting verses jam-packed with polysyllabic rhymes: “...rock choppin’, block rockin’, my stock poppin’, Xerox stockin’, chart-toppin’...” Statik and Term’s debut set as 1982 is scheduled to drop October 26, via Showoff/ST./Brick Records; those who send in a copy of the receipt after purchasing the album will receive a bonus “FREEep” featuring Lottery and more!

The fact that this record was left off the guys collaborative debut speaks volumes about the quality of material we should all expect from their upcoming release.

Nice beat but the song other than that is just ok.

Term always sounds sick over Statik's beats. This isn't my favorite from either of them, but is good enough to lead me to expect a great album.

You always know what you're going to get from Stat and Term - a soul based beat from Statik and some high-caliber rhymes from Term. No surprise, this is more of the same, the same dopeness. Shouts to all my Boston people.

Statik's production is a winner as always, but i couldnt help but feel bored by 1982's verses were kind of a bore.

Statik Selektah, one of the best in the game. This is good but not amazing. Something I'd listen to if it came on randomly but not by choice with so many other dope songs to choose from.
