Released today, veteran Binghamton duo Tone Chop & Frost Gamble return with the third single from their highly anticipated new album “Beautiful Foundations”, a celebration of their partnership stretching back over 30 years, which drops on May 15th 2026 through New Dawn Records.
It’s all in the name with “The Smoothest” catching the vibe. A tribute to the lyrical golden era of New York in a showcase of wordplay delivering a salvo of old and new school slang. Chop’s trademark bullish bars and the effortless flows of fellow Upstate marksmen Decon Blu and Pa Pa Fresh dictate the narrative, the three re-united from their earlier Four Sportsmen project.
Driven along by the customary slick productions with Frost at the wheel, it’s a classic recipe. Seasoned campaigners shelling rhymes with ease over a luscious beat immersed in soulful flavas and exquisite turntablism. Done and dusted, the bragging rights are well earned.

Released today, “Play No Games” is the second single to be taken from the album “Beautiful Foundations” by New York State rapper and producer duo Tone Chop and Frost Gamble, out through New Dawn Records on May 15th.
Layers of classic boom bap hip hop beats underpin hard bars as the veteran rap battle champion goes on the hunt with a verbal salvo aimed at upcoming title contenders. Joining them on the mission is legendary turntablist DJ Eclipse, renowned for his work with Non Phixion, Ill Bill and ongoing Fat Beats ambassador. Still flying the flag high and representing the dopest new underground bangers with his Rap Is Outta Control Show on Shade 45, the cutting skills on this joint are typically off the scale, stoking the fires further in a fusion of gritty authentic heat.
Knockout punchlines in a heavyweight bout for the heads, this also marks the label’s first release during their 30th anniversary year. Slick business from the Binghamton boys, dial it up to the max.

Immersed in hip hop culture from their teenage years, the album reflects their dedication to the true essence while embracing evolution.
