Felt 3: A Tribute to Rosie Perez + Brother Ali Talks Illegal Downloading + Red Bull Big Beat Battle (Minneapolis)

Felt 3 will be a tribute to actress Rosie Perez. Ha! I like the album art too - the video above is also a stream to their first single “Protagonists.” Also if you haven’t heard the entire album will feature production from Aesop Rock.

+++

Over at Brother Ali’s new website he has this thing going where you can ask Brother Ali questions and he will respond via video message. This first round consists of Ali’s stance on illegal downloading.

+++

Rhymesayer’s Toki Wright put up some nice footage of the Red Bull Beat Battle that rolled through Minneapolis last week. Producers battled back and forth all night which concluded with a performance from Freeway & Jake One.

Felt (Slug x Murs) -Protagonists

Ah yes! The first leak from one of my most anticipated releases - Felt 3: A Tribute To….well they have released that information yet. But we do know who will be producing the new album. “And this time Ace Rock is the drummer” states Murs in this booming new track from the duo whose other half is Slug of Atmosphere. Producer Aesop Rock will take Ant’s place on the third installation of the Felt series. I was a bit iffy when I realized Ant wouldn’t be producing the album - but Aesop Rock is the man to fill in the position. This track is the perfect taste of what is to come.

Also Rhymesayers released a clue on the album title based off this picture. Thanks guys..HA!

Felt 3: A Tribute to ______?

Well this speaks for it self. More clues to come about the album title and which producer the duo will be working with. Felt 2 is easily one of my favorite hip-hop albums ever.

This is already my favorite album of 2009/10.

Slug on Felt 3 (Decider - Twin Cities Interiew)

Decider: Are you working on another Atmosphere record?

Slug: Not as of yet. We’ll start in September. I just finished another Felt record. It’s getting mixed as we speak, and once it gets turned in, then the label will pick a [release] date.

Decider: Is that dedicated to a particular female, like Felt and Felt, Vol. 2, were dedicated to Christina Ricci and Lisa Bonet, respectively?

S: Yes.

Decider: Is that information under wraps?

S: Yes. I’m not allowed to divulge the actress or the producer.

Slug Decdier - Twin Cities Interview

To read the rest of the interview click above.

Slug gives a pretty normal interview about Atmospheres extensive touring, what it’s like to be an established act in hip-hop and most importantly in my mind, he talks about the release of Felt 3. If your not aware Felt consits of Slug and Murs - the duo has two albums under their belt - both of which are produced by Ant. If my copy of Felt 2: A Tribute To Lisa Bonet was a record - it definitely would not work anymore.

Also some exicting news - Atmosphere/Slug seems to have a side project that will drop sometime later this year.

Decider: Atmosphere’s been putting out a lot of EPs—you guys have been sort of tireless. Is there still stuff in reserve for Atmosphere?

S: Yeah, you know, I actually have another leaker record [a follow-up to 2007’s Strictly Leakage], but we’re just trying to figure out when and how would be the best time to put it out.

Big ups to Decider-Twins Cities for the real dope interview.
