Nipsey Hussle and Bino Rideaux's 'PROLIFIC' Is Rooted in Legacy and Los Angeles Hip Hop Heritage
Created nine years ago now, the collaborative album drops in August, and comes preceded by lead single “Sacrifices,” as well as a series of merch packs.
Nipsey Hussle‘s estate has announced the release of PROLIFIC, a collaborative album created with fellow Los Angeles hip hip storyteller Bino Rideaux nine years before its imminent release.
At last, PROLIFIC is confirmed for a global release on Friday, August 14. Set to span 15 tracks, the album’s latest single, “Sacrifices,” dropped today, which features contributions from James Fauntleroy alongside Hussle and Rideaux.
In addition to the new single, today also marks the official release of a lineup of PROLIFIC merchandise pieces, ranging from graphic tees to limited-edition vinyl.
“We’re proud to present PROLIFIC, the collaborative project Nipsey created with Bino and brought to life sonically by Mixed By Ali,” Hussle’s brother, Samiel “Blacc Sam” Asghedom, shared in a statement with Hypebeast.
“We are honored to be able to release the PROLIFIC album in the exact way my brother envisioned it. This isn’t something that our team compiled together; this is the body of work Nipsey created with Bino top to bottom. He was very proud of this project, and we feel blessed to finally be able to share it with the world.”
“Sacrifices was a masterclass of creative energy,” added Bino. “Minimum conversation, all hands on deck, and the unpredictable genius of James Fauntleroy. Constant flow of vibes and gems on and off record.”
While we’ve still got about two months until the drop, you can preorder the album and cop all merch at the PROLIFIC official website, and run up “Sacrifices” on all streaming platforms now.
