The release of Stankonia Sessions Mixtape proves that hip-hop’s new blood pendulum, where creativity coalesces around young talent, has once again shifted to Atlanta. Headed by production teams the Grammy-nominated The Flush and SMKA the #NewAtlanta is deeply informed by the city’s rich history—Stankonia Studios has produced some of the greatest records of all-time—but with a movement defined by shaping the future of sound. One glance at the nation-spanning tracklist proves this, as new artists like Two9, Go Dreamer, Emilio Rojas and Boldy James collaborate with some serious veteran acts: Slum Villiage, Rapper Big Pooh, CunninLynguists, Bizarre and more.
From the bassed-out blunt ride of “Swisha” to the feel-good double-time banger “Turn Around,” Stankonia Sessions is a tour-de-force through hip-hop that simultaneously feels familiar and brand spankin’ new. Recorded during the 2011 A3C Hip-Hop Festival, Stankonia Sessions is held together by the infection and undeniably unique production of The Flush and SMKA, two teams ready to bring their city back to the forefront.
