Queens’ native and Rap legend Kool G Rap is releasing his first album in 6 years, Return of The Don on June 2. It will be entirely produced by Toronto based producer MoSS. Today, Kool G Rap is sharing the solid first single ‘Wise Guys’ featuring Freeway and Fame of veteran New York duo M.O.P.
Return of The Don will also feature other artists such as Noreaga, Sean Price, Cormega, Raekwon, Sheek Louch, Saigon, Termanology, Fame, KXNG Crooked, Conway The Machine and Westside Gunn (the newest signees to Eminem’s Shady Records). You can stream the song as well as have a look at the complete tracklisting for the album, below.
“What motivates me to get in the studio is really being in that creative zone that you cannot just enter on demand” G Rap stated to Ambrosia For Heads. “It is more like an extremely powerful vibe that overcomes you. It’s triggered by hearing a particular track, or being inspired by another artist; or, a life experience that makes your mind and heart open up and lyrics just pour from your soul in the capacity of an avalanche. That’s what The Return Of The Don represents; an amalgamation of past, present and future and a tribute to some of my most favorite spitters worldwide; this is my salute to those artists.”
