Hip-Hop stalwart Edo. G is set to return with A Face in the Crowd, his first album since 2009′s collaborative effort Arts & Entertainment with Masta Ace. Loaded with high profile guests and an All-Star production team, the album will hit stores and be available digitally on May 17th.
With A Face in the Crowd, Edo returns to mark the 20-year anniversary of his classic debut album, with a hunger to bring real hip-hop back to the forefront. The album features guest appearances from Special Teamz crew of Jaysaun (Kreators) and Slaine (La Coka Nostra), Bishop Lamont, Chali 2Na, and M1 (dead prez), with production from DJ Premier, Statik Selektah, Explizit One, M Phases, The Breaks, Young Cee and others. “A Face in The Crowd will double your pleasure and triple your pain. It’s my Best Album to date,” says Edo. “Feel good Music Boom Bap music Hip Hop Music.” In 1991, Edo introduced himself to the world as a unique MC, one able to deliver both sharp social commentary and reality-based raps with slick rhymes and wit to spare. Having collaborated with legends like DJ Premier, Pete Rock and Masta Ace over a two-decade career, his legacy in the game is undisputed.
