Nametag – The Soul System EP

Posted in Downloads with tags , , , , , on March 1, 2010 by Benja

We brought you the single, now we have The Soul System EP, the newest project from Detroit’s Nametag, produced entirely by Black Bethoven. The concept of the “Soul System” is, “One producer, One emcee, One concept…One EP.” It came about originally with Black Bethoven preparing to release an instrumental CD to follow up 2009’s “Da Ear Hustle” but with an idea inspired by Dub MD, the emcee and producer decided to team up and create a music piece that provides food for thought you wouldn’t find in your local grocery aisle. With tracks like “Time” which is the EP’s leading single, Nametag and Black Bethoven prove that soul music has a permanent spot in the hip hop genre.
