A "Chopped Not Slopped" remix of NYC rapper/activist AWKWORD's recent "Go!" single from Slim K, featuring Joell Ortiz, Slug (of Atmosphere) and Maya Azucena on the assist.
The original cut will be included on AWK's upcoming 100% for-charity global hip-hop compilation World View, which you can read up on here.
From the man himself:
"Ah, the irony of a song called 'Go!' getting slowed all the way down."
Quotable Lyrics
"Gotta walk the tightrope, avoid curve balls thrown / Give me Trinidad's gold, even I wanna glow / I've always been afraid of not pushing envelopes / Now I leave myself notes and they all say 'no' / Even MTV folk, tell me that dope, though / Most people in the game hide behind cloaks / I guess they say God says you gotta keep hope / Even Agnostic AWK gotta keep it on the go." -AWKWORD
"I'm in a lazy Thunderbird, with some Minnesota plates / Scraping up the curb, just to get up in ya face / Ain't you heard, probably maybe / We beat, the breaks off, the novelty break beats / Toggle the safety, and follow the gravy / Passed out off a half a bottle a Jamie / I laugh now and I don't even know what you said / You assed out like you got a whole in yo head." -Slug
"Ya still tryin chase that deal, aight guys / I'm chillin', got a nice little spot in a high rise / Execs still tellin' y'all all the laws got bye-bye / That sucks, just bought a truck and new bike that I ride / It goes, 'vroom-vroom', with a fatty in a thong / Sorry I had to go, but I'm happy that I'm gone / Don't you wish you could rhyme and get at me on a song / Well yall can't and I can, like Nas, so run along." -Ortiz
