Press Release :
Prepare to be knocked out by this compilation of hip-hop heavyweights sharing tracks with the industries up and comers. Featuring tracks produced by Black Milk, Buckwild, Analogic, 9th Wonder and M-Phazes (to name a few) the album definitely has something for everyone.

Track after track of dream collaborations between the likes of Talib Kweli, Skyzoo, Royce da 5'9, Phonte (Little Brother), Kaze, and Silent Knight keep the energy coming and deliver exactly what the fans want…real hip-hop. "I approached this album as a hip-hop fan," says New Jersey native, DJ KO. "The way I tried to pair up the artists and producers in a strategic way. Hopefully that dynamic will make people think," he says.

With 29 artists, and 9 producers on the project, the music is bound to raise some eyebrows and deliver hip-hop a much-needed shot in the arm. The result is a tribute to hip-hop's past, present, and future. Veterans like Diamond D, OC, and Ed OG bring back the past, while lyricists like Talib Kweli, Elzhi (Slum Village) and Royce da 5'9 represent today's hottest performers, and newbies like Skyzoo, Superstition, and Kaze set the bar for what's to come.

Speech Debelle - Freedom Of Speech
(CD/LP/Digital) Big Dada Recordings BD193, 2012-02-06

Two years since winning the 2009 Mercury Music Prize for her debut album, Speech Therapy, and having ridden a rollercoaster through life since then, Speech Debelle is ready to drop her second collection of music. Entitled Freedom of Speech, the album sees Speech turning from introspection to stand up, face and engage with the world around her, spitting confident themes of revolution and love. A first taste of the album came in the aftermath of this summer's riots, when Speech reacted immediately, leaking the track Blaze Up A Fire, (also featuring Roots ManuvaRealism), a track about political revolution written months before. Now the build-up begins to the release of Freedom of Speech in early February 2012 with the free download of the track Studio Backpack Rap. From political to musical revolution, Speech describes the track as being "all about virtual instrumentation and an ode to KwesSpeech Therapy, while showcasing just one aspect of her remarkable new album.
