New Jersey’s Rasheed Chappell has released Ways & Means, a new album produced entirely by 38 Spesh. The seven-track project features contributions by Planet Asia, Che Noir, Jamal Gasol and The Musalini.
“This album was different on so many levels, one being working with one of my peers and contemporaries,” Chappell tells GroovyTracks. “The process was so much different than my previous work because Spesh and I just sat and knocked out joints like we were both doing this for the first time.”
He continues, “The energy in the room knowing that Fred [The Godson] or Flee [Lord] or Che was just in the booth lacing something and Graph or Klass is coming through or that Asia and Mu are in the other room truly made the energy and competitive spirit come out. Add to that one of the nicest MCs in the game is tracking your vocals telling you ‘that’s my shit right there!’ was inspiring. Looking forward to giving my supporters much more music at a more consistent pace and definitely collaborating with my brother Spesh again. TRUST.”
