Thurz - Riot (Feat. Black Thought)

After a succession of hits as one half of U-N-I, Thurz has decided that it's time to go solo and release his debut LP, L.A. Riot. Here is my favourite track from the album, which is produced by DJ Khalil and features the legendary Roots MC Black Thought. The album goes hard, so do yourself a favour and purchase one of the best Hip-Hop releases of 2011 HERE. Check what Thurz has to say about the track below and read the entire track-by-track preview HERE:

"Tariq that’s the homie man, one of my favourite rappers, one of my all time top 5 rappers. I met him in New York. But me and Khalil we made that record from scratch, we just sat down, he brought in some musicians, started playing a track and stuff and just made this crazy ass beat. And then I shot it to Tariq, he hit me back instantly like “Yo, this is fire.” And in an hour he sent me his verse for this record. So that’s how that came together, and we just had massive bars throughout that whole record."
