Wrekonize - Groundwork (Remix)
Artist: Wrekonize
Featuring: Ras Kass , Akrobatik , Co$$ (aka Ca$hus King) , Saheed
Producer: Stro the 89th Key (of the Procussions)
Album: A Soiree for Skeptics LP
Label: Strange Music
I don’t know if a gaggle of underground flame-spitters gathering on one dope ensemble cut can be considered “groundbreaking,” but one thing’s for damn sure: it doesn’t happen nearly often enough. Thus, though turkey day’s come and gone, we can all be thankful for Wrekonize‘s latest offering, an all-star remix of A Soiree for Skeptics standout cut Groundwork. As on the original, Procussions beatsmith Stro the 89th Key mans the boards, crafting an organ-led backdrop for the hyperkinetic lyricism of the ¡MAYDAY! member and his peers. Lending a hand on the guest tip are West Coast veteran Ras Kass (also appearing on producer Hazardis Soundz’ Booth debut, featured tonight), Boston’s Akrobatik,Cali buzzmaker Co$$ and Miami representatives Rudi Goblen and Saheed. With a lineup this talented, it’d be easier to quote one of the record’s few wack lines than to settle on a favorite… but that’d just be mean so, as usual, I’ll leave it to readers settle the score. Those who like what they’re hearing can find the original version of Groundwork and much more on Wrekonize’s debut solo mixtape, out now online.

Has the feel of one of those early-to-mid-90s posse cuts where you got all your boys on a record and everyone just kilt it. Yes, kilt it - killed, past tense in my own original way. Kudos to Wrek for putting on fellow Florida resident Saheed, who I feel puts in the best guest feature.

DJ Z said it absolutly perfect. It does sound like that. And im loving it. Alot!! This record is striaght fire.
This is the same thing Kanye is doing. Just get a group of artist and murdering tracks. And its genius to do that. The production is boring from Stro The 89th Key. But everyones verse is crazy good. They all go hard. And the chorus is catchy. Keep it up Wrekonize. Banger, no doubt. |
