So Rugged Soul Records' DJ Rob A and legendary emcee Masta Ace got together and music happened. And it's good. The digital album, "
Put to Paper" dropped today and is now available through
Rob A's Bandcamp,
iTunes and
Amazon and features explicit and clean versions of the title track, another Rob A solo track ("Still Have Strenf") as well as instrumentals for both. Back in the cassette days we called this a "Maxi Single", but I digress.

Rob A gives us a beat thats addictive and reminiscent of what you loved about 90's hip hop. Both emcees carry a similar flow/delivery on the title track which actually works really well. Described as a track "to break down the science of the hip hop music they have both appreciated for decades," "
Put to Paper" isn't the longest track clocking in at just under the 3 minute mark, but it's a breath of fresh air against anything in rotation on the radio.
"I’m about to hit a fucking Rapper with a closed hand.
If that don’t hurt'em then I bet ya that the flows can."
Lyrics for both tracks also available at Rob A's Bandcamp.
You can grab all 5 tracks today available at
