Mick Boogie - Down With The King 2011
Artist: Mick Boogie
Featuring: Tanya Morgan , 6th Sense , Nitty Scott, MC
Producer: 6th Sense
Album: [My Adidas] 25th Anniversary Mixtape
Label: Unsigned
Has it really been a whole quarter-century since Run-DMC unleashed their groundbreaking third album, Raising Hell, upon the unsuspecting public? To answer my own rhetorical question: yes, yes it has. To celebrate the seminal set’s 25-year anniversary, heavyweight DJ Mick Boogie has called up his most talented connects to craft an all-star tribute project. Newly-leaked cut Down With the King 2011, a new-school remake of the title track off Run-DMC’s sixth LP, finds 6th Sense putting his own spin on Pete Rock’s instrumental. Like Rock on the original, the Booth-approved beatsmith steps out from behind the boards to deliver a guest verse, spitting alongside Brooklyn representers Nitty Scott, MC and Tanya Morgan (Donwill and Von Pea). In addition to appearing on Boogie’s aforementioned project, set for release tomorrow, Down With the King 2011 is slated for inclusion on Nitty’s 2DopeBoyz-exclusive Doobies x Popsicle Sticks mixtape, dropping tonight at midnight. Heads in the NYC area will have the chance to get their pictures taken with DMC and hear a DJ set by Mick Boogie in a Friday night event at SoHo’s Adidas Originals store.

Obviously this song cannot touch the masterful original version, but what a tribute?! Hopefully this will open the ears of today's hip hop youth to the musical foundation that the genre was built upon.

This really sounds like some early 1990's rap. Not really feeling this track much...everything just feels outdated.
