“With the highly anticipated sophomore album “A Dream Deferred” set for a 10/2 release date, we present to you the new single “Give It Up” (feat. DJ Prince), produced by !llmind (Kanye West, 50 Cent, Ludacris, Scarface). The single, which mashes vintage dirty hip hop drums and 808s with dubstep grime, is a staple of !llmind’s new signature “boom-trap” sound, which can most recently be found via his production on “The Morning” by Kanye West & G.O.O.D. Music off of the Cruel Summer album. Topped with Sky’s signature “slick talk” lyricism, the song is a subwoofer’s dream come true. “Quotables is Andre (3000)/ wrote about the hallway, flow is in & out/ and if they speaking on my sneakers then they foaming at the mouth/say I did it for the borough, how we looking, how we looking/ aint no dancing in that kitchen, if they cooking then they COOKING!” -Skyzoo”
