D Smoke has been riding high for 2020 and drops a video for the song “Rapture.” It’s not known if this will be part of the follow up to Black Habits or simply a loose joint that will hold us down while he works on his next album.
It’s been nearly 20 years since Pete Rock blessed us with PeteStrumentals and the Chocolate Boy Wonder is back with the third edition dropping on December 12.
“I wanted to keep the same feeling that people got with the first PeteStrumentals, even if I’m not sampling,” Pete Rock said in a statement announcing the first single “Say It Again.” With a band behind the beats, Rock will be joined by drummer Daru Jones, guitarist Marcus Machado, bassists MonoNeon and Christopher McBride, keyboardist BigYuki and vocalist Jermaine Holmes.
“I want the best; I’m like James Brown and Kool & The Gang; I want precision.”
