DON'T SMOKE ROCK - The Story & Behind The Scenes (Footage)

via @darujones Instagram

15 Years ago in #2001, I remembering being in #NYC and purchasing #petestrumentals #vol1 @ the #virginrecordsmegastore after seeing it in my brothers @thesource #magazine under #fattape, I think.As a #drummer and #beatmaker this album was #nextlevel and epic as he broke the mold with doing instrumentals albums at the time. 6 years ago I met #smokedza while being a member of @skibeatz band, #thesenseis. We rocked the stage many nights @ #damedash @duskopoppington #dd172 gallery, #mtv and more! 3 months ago an opportunity presented itself via @realpeterock @kushedgod.

I had the honor of contributing to one of the best #hiphop projects in #2016 with #replays by myself and #theroyalpharaohs plus extended non-band members. Read the #cd credits below 🙏🏾

This record is the gritty sound, soul and energy of #real #NYC #hiphop during an era that's still able to stand the test of time like #hiphop never left. Major respect to one of the best #beatsmith's to ever do it #peterock and #smokedza for puttin' trust in me and the squad to get the job done also putting together a masterpiece. #dontsmokerock available now!
