Juno Award winning, Halifax based hip hop artist Classified announces new album, GREATFUL, set to release January 15 via Half Life Records/Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company. GREATFUL will be available for pre-order today.
GREATFUL was self-produced by Classified and recorded at the Halflife Studios in Enfield, Nova Scotia. The album consists of 16 tracks and collaborations featuring Snoop Dogg, David Myles, Ria Ma, DJ Premier and more.
“This album feels like what I’ve been working towards my whole career,” said Classified. “It took me longer than any other album, it’s more personal and I got to work with my heroes in hip hop. I’m excited to get this out to the fans who have listening to me since day one and the newer listeners who just started listening.”
Fans who pre-order GREATFUL will receive two album tracks – “Filthy” and “No Pressure” – leading up to release. “Filthy” will be available instantly and harkens back to early ‘90s cypher hip-hop in Brooklyn with sharp, witty wordplay over a simplified, catchy beat. “Filthy” is one of the hungriest tracks of Classified’s career, with the rapper settling into his niche of conscious lyrics followed with a sing-along chorus. The video for “Filthy” premieres today on HipHopDX.
The second instant grat and the album’s official first single, “No Pressure” will be available on November 6 and features Snoop Dogg. “No Pressure” is the anthemic follow-up to 2013’s five time platinum-selling single “Inner Ninja”.
