Jim Jones has dropped off his eight studio album, El Capo. Produced entirely by The Heatmakerz, Jones enlists the additional help of hip-hop heavyweights like Rick Ross, Dave East, Curren$y and Cam’ron to name a few. The record’s absence of fillers exhibit the Dipset legend’s untouchable flow and lyrical prowess, reimagining life in his neighborhood of Harlem into 16 tightly-packed tracks. His continuous influence over hip-hop is proving to be good for his own skill, and it doesn’t seem like he plans on slowing down any time soon.

Stream El Capo on Spotify and Apple Music.

In other new music releases, Skepta has released his highly-anticipated album Ignorance is Bliss.
