Binghamton rapper and producer duo Tone Chop & Frost Gamble, the latter now based in Canada, drop their new album “Beautiful Foundations” through New Dawn Records on May 15th this year.

The title track was released last month as a single, available from all digital platforms and stores, while the official video was published on Youtube

They have just recorded a special “Beautiful Foundations Freestyle” where Chop in customary fashion gets busy on the mic with a neat twist by dropping the names of all the album tracks in his bars.

He linked up recently with local videographer Lil Kurby, who also filmed the official single video, to take to the snowbound streets of Binghamton for some new visuals which you can now watch on Youtube.

The album itself was recorded by the pair to mark their long standing friendship and working relationship together dating back three decades, and features many of those they’ve met and built with on the journey.

A landmark release, they have also filmed an accompanying documentary which details their earliest days together, maps out the trials and tribulations they encountered on the way and of course speaks on the new project. It’s a must watch for all interested in hip hop’s history and culture, and will resonate with independent artists everywhere. Look out for this dropping shortly after the album.

Plans are also underway for a special launch event to take place in their hometown, with details due to be announced in the coming months.

The next single will be “Play No Games” on February 10th with features cuts by DJ Eclipse [Shade 45 / Sirius XM – Rap Is Outta Control Show]. You can hear a snippet of it as part of the Official Album Video Trailer which was released late last year.

New single released today and the fourth to be taken from the album “Lead by Example” by London’s Ramson Badbonez, his debut as a producer.

Out on August 27th through New Dawn Records, rarely has such a line up of hip hop heavyweights from both sides of the Atlantic featured together on the one LP, resulting in a showcase of the highest quality rhymes, beats and turntablism.

Previous singles “Stay True”, “Lead by Example” and “Black Hole Cypher / Rap to the Future” bench marked the standards, and latest offering “Lame Duck” follows in the same vein as New Jersey verbal assassins Tru Trilla, Fly Kwa and Prince Ak are next to enter the ring with their trademark raw and uncompromising punchlines delivering knockout blows to all comers, the energy intensified by the potent bass and kicks combinations for a concoction of bars and beats that go the full distance.  Hard as nails.

Available to stream and download at Apple, Amazon, Tidal, Spotify & Bandcamp

All media, press and radio station DJ enquiries regarding the single and album can be addressed to us here at UrbanElite PR, our contact details are HERE
