Big Shug's "Punch Out". What an awesome sample for a rap song. And the fact that Shug's lyrics relate to boxing instead of just the typical easy stuff is pretty impressive. Click here to hear a 1-minute snippet, or click here download the mp3.
This is off of a DJ named Statik Selektah's new album, Spell My Name Right. Every track is great! If you're a fan of rap with thoughtful lyricism and awesome production (he comes from the school of DJ Premier), you will really a-preash-iate this one. You can download it for free here. You'll need a program called WinRAR to open it.
Features: Styles P, Q-Tip, Talib Kweli, Freeway, Cassidy, Jadakiss, and KRS-One (among others)
HEADS UP: With both the link to the single and the link to the album, you may need to click a couple of times here and there to close pop-ups. Also, beware of surveys you don't need to take and spyware you don't need to download. Basically, YOU GOTTA WORK FOR IT. But it's worth it.
