Gene The Southern Child & Parallel Thought “Gangsta Shit” ft. Bentley [mp3]
Following the release of their 2012 collaboration A Ride With The Southern Child, Gene the Southern Child and Parallel Thought have teamed up once again for Artillery Splurgin’. Alabama-native Gene returns with his signature smooth elocution; his lyrics, which are laden with self-reflection and thoughtful insights into both personal and social circumstances, ultimately depict a cold American landscape, both poignant and controversial.
With last year’s Attractive Sin, Parallel Thought showcased their unique ability to seamlessly blend their own East Coast sound with Del The Funky Homosapien’s hallmark West Coast articulation. On Artillery Splurgin’, Parallel Thought does it again. Only this time, they return fully reloaded with a classic southern sound that pays homage to vintage 80s and 90s gangster rap. The first single, “Gangsta Shit,†features Flo-Town’s Bentley, and all other guests on the album are exclusive to Alabama hometown heavyweights.
