In October I released a boom bap and lyrics smorgasbord in the form of my 7th full length album, Kingtucky. A lot of my supporters thought this was my strongest project to date. Continuing that momentum, I’m releasing “Kingtucky: Break Loops & B-Sides” which features exclusive remixes of Kingtucky songs as well as brand new tracks that was left off the original version. Before releasing the 11 track project on the 29th, I wanted give fans an appetizer! This is a track entitled “Thorns In My Crown” and features CunninLynguists front man and long time collaborator Deacon The Villain. You can stream the hauntingly soulful and Obvious produced track below!

Devine Carama’s Thoughts:

“The concept of this song is about sacrifice. Deacon and I talked about the strategic we made as artist to bypass some of the trendier elements of hip hop in order to stay true in the music we create and the message we spread. The title came from Jesus’ Crucifixion. Though he dawned a crown, it was throned and worn as he was being sacrificed for a greater purpose. Without sounding too blasphemous, we too feel as though we are sacrificing by refusing to acquiesce to the popular waves in the culture for a greater purpose.”
