In recent years, Georgia‘s become synonymous with Southern hip-hop, but in this newly-released remix (and their first Booth feature as headliners), Kno, Deacon the Villain, and Natti of CunninLynguists seek to remind listeners that, in addition to birthing African-American legends past and present, the state also bore witness to some of the ugliest chapters in our country’s ongoing battle with racial prejudice.  Delivering a melancholy, guitar-laced instrumental, Kno sets the stage for vivid verses in which guest artists Killer Mike and Khujo Goodie (of Goodie Mob) lyrically explore the historical struggles that affect the lives of Southerners to this day.  Deacon completes the picture with a sweepingly elegiac hook, singing, “The clay is running red from the blood that done been shed, down in Georgia…”  This record is set for inclusion on the May 26th release of the trio’s forthcoming LP, Strange Journey Vol. 1.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on March 30, 2009

Far too many artists (as Killer Mike broke down in detail during his last interview here in the Booth) make the ATL into a "Dirty South Hollywood." Finally, we have a record about what Georgia is all about.

Great job fellas. Rotation... and then some.

I like the melancholy feel of the production, as it uses a lot of the aspects that made up music in Georgia back in the day. As opposed to this southern music on the mainstage nowadays (not that I'm hatin, its just the only thing people associate wit the south nowdays) The guitar sample makes a nice crying sound thats perfect.

I do like all of the artists on here, they all did they thing sellin the message and keepin wit the mellow/dark vibe. Nice track.

Another Georgia remix. I have to say though, something totally different. Doesn't live up to the original. I'd say this is in rotation.

CunninLynguists have been around for a while and I am glad to FINALLY see them on the booth. This was one of the good tracks from their album, Dirty Acres, althought there are many that are much better. Go check it out!

They use the same beat as the OG but its good to see a couple of more people spit on it. Not bad!
