The homie Emeka threw this up on Twitter this a little while ago. And he hates everything. So you know this must be good. I’m going to have to agree. It’s not often in this era of viral videos, quickie freestyles and the like where something stands out. Something different and creative. The title alone grabbed your attention, didn’t it? Here’s a description of the project…
City of God’s Son is an experimental hip-hop opera starring Nas, Jay-Z, Ghostface, Biggie Smalls, Raekwon, Samuel Jackson, Delroy Lindo, and Laurence Fishburne. It is a crime drama/coming of age tale of three fictitious characters growing up in a crime-ridden mythical city in a jungle. This project explores the icon of the gangster in modern media, and weaves musical history and gangster film history into an operatic music based story of brotherhood and survival. An homage to ’90s New York hip-hop, City of God’s Son is the redefinition of the remix. Featuring legendary soul singer Joe Bataan.
Still not sure what to make of this right? Visit the official City of God’s Son website, click “Download the Project” and thank me later. Big ups to Kenzo Digital for thinking outside of the box and proving that not EVERYTHING has been done before.
