NEW BLACK ® & KARMALOOP presents… ASAAD • NEW BLACK ® HISTORY MONTH. I would like to dedicate this to all of the hard working black people across the universe. i love y’all & do this for the people first & foremost. This is my life in the form of an exclusive free album 16 tracks some original some very rare beats & compositions. Welcome to the resurgence of black music & the upper echelon of black existentialism . I recorded all of this throughout February of 2012, this music is all new. I’d like to thank my team #DIRTYMIDDLECLASS & • new black ® for riding with me taking the risks we take to show the world the beauty of the black mind & the modern youth mindset. Excellence, success nothing less is the modo, play hard / work hard, simultaneously is the mantra. I am the new ALFRED LION, MAX B, BIGGIE, PAC, YOUNG CHRIS, GIL SCOTT HERON, ANDREW HIL, LANGSTON HUGHS, PHARELL, PUSHA T I’m all of that in one new form, called ASAAD. All i ask is respect amongst other things like trust in my inner sanctum. Your now witnessing a show thats too good for the venue, a strong distaste I’m ordering off of the menu. Shout out WAHID SWEAT for making the KARMALOOP collaboration possible & SPERRY from ITSTHEBINO for rocking with me & shooting the historic JUMANJI FLOW video in less that 8 hours of producing & recording it. In 4 sessions between PHL, NYC, BOST & NJ i recorded 16 songs that are now on the project & will be available 2/29/2012 #leap #year #swag thank you for reading & believing in me…i do this for the privileged listeners…the beautiful black women across the world :) hope you love this album when it drop!! holla! - ME
