Dujeous - I Witness
Artist: Dujeous
Featuring: Immortal Technique
Producer: Dujeous
Album: Day In Day Out
Label: Dujeous, LLC.
If rap is, as Chuck D, famously claimed, the “black CNN,” then you can consider Dujeous a crack team of investigative journalists. On a new single off their next street album, the Booth-approved crew hook up with underground stalwart Immortal Technique for an I Witness report on the situation in the streets. Over the crew’s own hard-hitting production, driven by bell arpeggios and clattering percussion, rappers Mojo the Cinematic, Rheturik and Mas D reveal what other news outlets have been keeping under wraps. In addition to the expected horrors—kids selling crack, pervasive, cop-inflicted violence…—Immortal Tech evokes subtler forms of oppression: “After they evacuated people sloppily, they asked realtors to invest in the property / The rebirth of Manifest Destiny in the South, stack chips while they trained to drag dead bodies out.” The solution? “It’s time to react, create strategic acts of vengeance.” Has this bracing, politically-charged banger got you fired up and ready to retake the streets? That’s what I like to hear. But be sure to include a trip to the local record store on your itinerary; Dujeous’ latest LP, Day In Day Out, was independently released yesterday, April 3.

Good work by Dujeous on the production and the real truth bars. Immortal Technique does good work here too. This can go into rotation.

Anything Immortal touches is 5 star in my eyes. This was a heavy song.

Immortal Technique hasn't been to on point for me lately. But I love his classics Dance with the Devil, Leaving the Past, You Never Know, Caught in a Hustle...so I'm not sure whats going on.
