New remix single “Nutshell pt 2” from the late great rap legend Phife Dawg rings out with a bumpin’ and infectious spark which helps to further cement “The 5ft Assassin’s” legendary status in the rap game music industry. For the single, Phife aligned himself with fellow hip-hop lords Busta Rhymes and Redman and hammered out a truly dope headnod opus with DJ Rasta Root piloting the soundboard over a J Dilla beat. The way that Red and Busta carry forward the recurring prefixes and verbs rhyme scheme that Phife showcased in the original version of the single while also managing to bring their signature styles to the cut is just awesome man. To put it in a nutshell, this shit is dope.
“Nutshell pt 2” follows the previously released, J Dilla produced single “Nutshell“ and both singles serve as opening shots from Phife Dawg’s posthumous album Forever (which is set to touch down later this year). The release also follows the recently released Mama Phife Represent – a book of poems, letters, and journals that the rapper’s mother Cheryl Boyce-Taylor put together to pay homage to her son as well as share with his many fans all across the globe.
