Underground figurehead and Def Jux president El-P does not rest. The man eats, breathes, and lives underground hip hop. While most hip hop purists agree that El-P’s style is not only original but almost futuristic, there are still the haters out there proclaiming the Co-Flow front man drops nothing more than space ship rap.
2006 is sure to prove once and for all who is right. First up on the producer’s hit list is Boston lyricist Mr. Lif and his follow-up to the critically acclaimed debut, I Phantom. The as yet untitled LP is slated to be produced almost entirely by El-P, with a few joints sprinkled in from Oh-No. The album promises to be Mr. Lif's most incredible work to date, picking up on the gritty story telling and bboy social commentary that he introduced so savagely on his full length debut. The album will be wrapped and delivered on Feb. 1st, upon which El-P will finish not only his own follow up to Fantastic Damage, entitled I'll Sleep When You're Dead, but the next Cannibal Ox album as well.
