"KK / in the Khaos '69"
Due out in the July 5.
This work is classic deep KK dope hip hop sound; a world only KK can create. At the same time, it introduces a new direction by incorporating the essence of Grme/Dubstep hot in Europe right now as well as live instruments. Miroque, who's participation in the Haruomi Hosono tribute and Headz' newest release is much talked about, Kyoto's creator AX, Nara's dubstep artist T2R, and colorful instrument players and singers add their own touch to the KK sound.
Similar to the last album, many magnificent MCs are featured as guests. MC RUMI, who swept over the 2007 scene with "Hell Me WHY??" from Sanagi Recordings, MC Candle, whose first album from Mary Joy elevated him as one of the most prominent skilled MCs around, MC Tamaki ROY whose popularity is rising through releases from DA.ME. Records and guest appearances on other artists' works, 3MCs Kochitola Haguletic Emcee's lead by popular MC Chinza Dopeness, MC Doctor Machida whose first album is anticipated this year, and also MC Offwhyte from US prominent underground crew Galapagos4! The entanglement between the unique guests and KK's artisan productions skills make this a must-listen. Full volume 14 tracks.
