Screen Shot 2023 02 24 at 3.15.52 PM

Soon after announcing his retirement in the fourth quarter of last year, Styles P released his second to last solo album Penultimate: A Calm Wolf Is Still A Wolf on January 27, 2023. Today (2/21/2023), The LOX rapper shares the official Bo-directed music video for album single “Death Before Dishonor” (featuring bass player, producer, singer, and band leader Brady Watt). 

After I did Bass & Bars with Brady Watt, we agreed that we’d be doing more sh*t together in the future”, said Styles. “This song was that. As a 48 year old emcee, I like to step outside of my comfort zone, and I did that here. [‘Death Before Dishonor’] has a different feel not typical to Styles P, but still fits in with what I do. I didn’t even know Brady could sing or produce, but when he played me this track, I just followed my emcee intuition and started working on it right then and there.

With guest appearances  from Bucky and Brady Watt, and production from Vinny IdolBlack SaunTy Feif, as well as Styles P’s son, Noah Styles, among others, Penultimate: A Calm Wolf Is Still A Wolf is P’s 15th solo project.

DPG Member Kurupt Drops New Visual “Take Me Away”

Screen Shot 2023 02 17 at 11.49.25 PM

Kurupt stunts through Las Vegas in his finest gear and brand-new whip in the new video for “Take Me Away,” his solo single off his new collaborative album with C-Mob as the duo GOTTI MOB.

The visuals are directed by Westlyfe Visual, who follows the living rap legend’s exploits through the city of sin. But rather than hit up some flashy party or spend all night enjoying the best the strip has to offer, Kurupt is on his king sh*t here. He enjoys a laid-back ride through the city in a slick Maybach before ultimately reaching his destination — a hotel to pick up his favorite lady. It’s a fittingly chill scenario for the laid-back, low-key funky track, which would fit right in on one of his own solo albums.

This is the sixth video from the duo’s collaborative album, don’t be stupid, and it follows the recently released cinematic visuals for C-Mob’s solo cut, “Wanna Be a Ho.”

Check out the visuals for “Take Me Away” and head over to your preferred platform to stream the duo’s collab LP, don’t be stupid, out now via Penagon Records/GOTTI MOB in partnership with Compound Interest. You can also buy the album on vinyl, CD, cassette, and digital download via GOTTIMOB.com, where you can purchase GOTTI MOB merchandise as well.
