Three years later, & here it is- the official debut collaborative album from
Planet Asia x G_Force - Camouflage Jackets.
Originally recorded in 2008, G_ & Asia first connected thru MySpace (remember that?)
when G was still just 18 years old & living in Eugene, OR & reached out to the Fresno rap veteran. Asia dug what he heard, & quickly the duo started sending trading back beats & verses to each other.
The tracks that resulted from the sessions were intended to have a few different homes, including a period when they were signed to Talib Kweli’s label, BlackSmith,
but were ultimately left in the vault - never to be heard from again,
until now, where they are available, in full, as a free download.
Naturally sample-heavy in nature, the beats on Camo Jackets
pull from sources of classic soul, psych rock & even reggae/dub records - & w/ them as his backdrop, Asia delivers one of his most hungry & focused album performances in years w/ his streetwise battle raps & unmistakable cadence.
You can hear three previews from the LP & see the tracklisting & credits before getting the full download – all below.
