A new album set from DJ Kay Slay & DJ Greg Street is to feature hip-hop and rap artists Fat Joe, Mike Jones, Paul Wall, Three 6 Mafia, The Diplomats, Ghostface, Busta Rhymes, Yung Joc, Remy Ma, Lloyd Banks, Papoose, Raekwon, Cassidy, B.G., David Banner, Lil'' Jon and more. Few DJ's embody real hip-hop the way DJ Kay Slay does. A graffiti legend in the ''80s, and later THE King of all hip-hop mixtapes with his Streetsweepers series, respect on the streets for Kay Slay is second to none. As the official "Drama King," he was the first DJ to break landmark battles over the past decade including serving as referee for the now legendary hip-hop battle between rap artists Jay-Z vs. Nas and the brutal hip-hop war of Ja Rule vs. 50 Cent on the airwaves. Rappers consider Kay Slay the go-to DJ to entrust their hottest battle raps with. Kay Slay now teams up with renowned southern radio DJ and producer Greg Street to bridge their two worlds together for a chartbuster hip-hop album. "The Champions -- North Meets South" showcases the best talent from each region on one CD The first single from the forthcoming release will be "Can''t Stop The Reign" featuring hip-hop aritist Bun B, Papoose and Shaquille O''Neal. The video was recently shot on location in Miami. You can peep it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSQuAkWfIGs "The Champions -- North Meets South" will be Kay Slay's 3rd frontline release. This follows his 2 Columbia releases, "The Street Sweepers, Vol. 1," and "The Street Sweepers Vol. 2: The Pain From The Game" (released in 2003 and 2004 respectively), which together have sold over 350,000 copies. Kay Slay is also the #1 DJ on New York's premier hip-hop radio station, Hot 97. |
