Justice System Releases New Hip Hop And Rap Album Titled Basement Tapes

The lush soundscape of Justice System’s new album, Basement Tapes, is the product of a beautiful tension. It is the tension that arises when eight NY hip-hop heads who grew up together blend 70’s soul music recording techniques, jazz quintet instrumentation, and programmed and chopped up beats to stretch the sound of hip-hop beyond conventional limits.

On tracks like “Bring the Justice” and “Where We’re From”, the caustic rhymes of Jahbaz, Folex, and Sugadeezil go head-to-head with Mo Betta Al’s searing horn lines and synth stabs, all against the atmospheric rumble of Coz Boogie’s bass and Eric G.’s beats. Just as the underlying tension is about to peak, the songs transition to fulsome bridge arrangements and spirited choruses. These transitions provide an emotional release for the energy that surges throughout the album.

The album’s first single, “Bronxian Bauxite” showcases the crew’s storytelling prowess over a classic NY Boom-Bap track [Read more…]
