The two artists are a veritable study in contrasts and contradictions, Castro was born and raised in Brooklyn but lives in Philadelphia, PremRock grew up in Bucks County, Pennsylvania but has been in New York since ‘08. Castro’s militant wordplay, reggae-influences, and booming baritone somehow perfectly balance PremRock’s silver-tongued flows, literary allusions and deadpan humor. ShrapKnel is a Venn diagram of ill communications; Schooly D to Stromile Swift. Def Jux to Detlef Schremf. Students of Black Uhuru and Breeze Brewin, Baldwin and Bukowski. Steel sharpens steel and this blade is as sharp as it gets. It has been more than two years since ShrapKnel’s debut album, during which time the duo of Curly Castro and PremRock have individually released successful solo albums with Backwoodz Studioz. Fittingly, these two albums were nothing alike; Castro’s incendiary Little Robert Hutton is an high octane soundclash, a stark contrast to the knotty intimacy of PremRock’s Load Bearing Crow’s Feet. A new ShrapKnel album means a return to foundry and forge, the alchemy of turning two into one. Carbon and Iron make steel, rest assured, there will be no sophomore slump. Metal Lung is the evidence.<a href="https://linktr.ee/ajsuede" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">AJ Suede</a> - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/suedegod" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Facebook</a> | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ajsuede/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/AJSUEDE?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Twitter</a>Known for his psychedelic amalgamation of East Coast and Northwest sounds, Seattle based rapper/producer AJ Suede has carved a lane of his own.

With NMH they have crafted an album that distinctly represents the past, present and future of hip-hop.Milc - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/milcmane/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/MILCMANE" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Twitter</a>Televangel - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/televangel/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/0YoungGod0" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Twitter</a><a href="https://ltheadtrip.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Lt Headtrip</a> - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/LtHeadtrip/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Facebook</a> | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ltheadtrip/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/ltheadtrip" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Twitter</a>Lt Headtrip is a rapper, producer, and head of indie hip-hop label, WATKK.
