Purchase Guilty Simpson “Guilt” Here :: https://manbitesdogrecs.bandcamp.com/…

Linchpin: a person or thing vital to an enterprise or an organization; a wedge that holds together unrestrained parts, i.e., a safety pin in a hand grenade.

Since first connecting with Dilla, Guilty Simpson has been a Linchpin — a crucial part of holding the Detroit Hip Hop scene together. Father to a spawn of rappers who were influenced in the wake he created, it’s apropos to name a song on his new project “Linch Pins.”

The track finds Mr. Simpson in samurai form, sharpening his steel against fellow legendary artist and co-founder of Organized Confusion, Prince Po. Continuing with the theme of “Guilt,” producers Dub Sonata and Maitre D brought in multi-instrumentalist Alex Blum to flesh out a lush string section, while DJ Ragz adds a display of turntablism, polishing off another highlight on the “Guilt”project, set to release via Man Bites Dog Records on July 29th.
