Little Brother Preparing New Album, "And Justus For All"
By Bryan Munson
New York, NY (May 16, 2008) – From DX (shout out to Jake Paine):
…After last year's critically acclaimed “Get Back,” Little Brother is returning with “And Justus For All” on their co-operative Hall Of Justus imprint. The project began as the Mick Boogie-hosted mixtape used to promote “Get Back.” The work featured appearances from Black Star, Ray Cash and AZ, as well as production from RJD2.
"We decided to officially release “And Justus For All” for the fans. Since all of our mixtapes are more like actual albums, many people have been requesting us for deejay-free versions of these mixtapes. So to all of the fans out there that's been asking for it, you're welcome," Rapper Big Pooh told HipHopDX.
Now packaged as an "official album," “And Justus For All” features five new songs, released specifically for this project. Two additional new songs are appearing on the digital version of the June 10 release, available on iTunes. Among the bonus songs, "Black Light Special" will reunite the group with former group member/producer/DJ 9th Wonder. Four of the other new tracks are produced by longtime affiliate Khrysis
Oh No! and Tiye Phoenix of Polyrhythm Addicts make appearances, and DJ Spinna also produces a track. Traffic Entertainment will be the release's distributor.
This is exciting news. LB is proving there is life after 9th Wonder and the new collab should be interesting. And while Pooh is no lyrical superman, he is consistent and improving to the point where I’m interested to hear what he’s going to say next. I want to see them collab again with Pete Rock, though.
