Rockness Monsta – Ether Rocks: https://fatbeats.lnk.to/ether-rocks

Since making his mark in the ‘90s through the early aughts as a part of the legendary Boot Camp Clik and one-half of “Da Incredible Rap Team” and the duo Heltah Skeltah, Rock (also known as the Rockness Monsta) has been conservative with solo efforts. With one of the most distinct voices in Hip-Hop, the Brooklyn emcee released his full-length debut solo album Rockness AP in 2017 and now looks to step back into the spotlight with his sophomore album, Ether Rocks.

Produced entirely by Harlem, New York’s Ron Browz (Nas’s “Ether”, Jim Jones’s “Pop Champagne”, etc.), the project sees Rock’s ominous tone and sharp flow transposed from the traditional Boom-Bap beats of Da Beatminerz and others, into a sonic backdrop that retains grit yet bolsters an updated and more sophisticated style from the legendary emcee.
