Three years later, & here it is….
the official debut collaborative album from
Planet Asia x G_Force -
Camouflage Jackets.
Originally recorded in 2008,
G_ & Asia first connected thru MySpace (remember that?)
when G was still just 18 years old & living in Eugene, OR
& reached out to the Fresno rap veteran.
Asia dug what he heard,
& quickly the duo started sending trading back beats & verses to each other.
The tracks that resulted from the sessions
were intended to have a few different homes,
including a period when they were signed to Talib Kweli’s label, BlackSmith,
but were ultimately left in the vault -
never to be heard from again,
until now,
where they are available, in full, as a free download.
Naturally sample-heavy in nature,
the beats on Camo Jackets
pull from sources of classic soul, psych rock & even reggae/dub records -
& w/ them as his backdrop, Asia delivers
one of his most hungry & focused album performances in years
w/ his streetwise battle raps & unmistakable cadence.
