Some huge movements shape decades and some talented artists shape music of these same decades. DJ Premier shaped an entire side of the 90’s by himself producing the best tracks for the best east cost rappers, big time, with heavy, aggressive sometimes sorrowful instrumentals.
I’ll stop here right away, I don’t want to fall into sophisticated manners, I’m just a white guy living in Paris anyway right? But come on, DJ Premier flipped my all vision of rap music when I discovered his whole work pretty late in 2000…

Now it’s time to thank the Needle Drifterz for this perfect 30 minutes rewind on DJ Premier’s work that will take you on an helicopter trip over New-York with Biggie.
DJ Sims, one of the two members of the Needle Drifterz, is the Scred Connexion’s dj, a French rap crew created in the mid 90’s really closed from here in Barbès. Yeah, I might don’t know Brooklyn-NY that much but I sure know Barbès-Paris.

The great news is that they’ve been telling me that they were working on a volume 2, can’t wait.

A little explanation about the artwork by Akroe
The hardest thing about creation is maybe to find a simple idea impactful enough to retain attention and that could be declined easily.

So here is the simple idea, so is the story, about the artwork for the first FORTUNE’s album.
Akroe in fact, gathered different influences that the band provided to him (artworks covers and random pictures), squeezed, tortured and methodically joined them to make a coherent explosion of colors.
So it might seem abstract at first sight, but it all makes sense when you have the explanation right?

How simple is this?
