New Album from 4PRIDE

MC 4PRIDE will release a new album on February 22nd.

The eponymous 4PRIDE will contain nine tracks, seven of which — including recent digital singles Represent and Hip-Hop Is Dead — were produced by DJ KAJI. The album also includes BEASTS by MASTER BULLDOG, a duo 4PRIDE is one half of, and a cover of Osakan reggae DJ NANJAMAN's Zutto soba ni.

Six tracks feature guest appearances by several of 4PRIDE's fellow MCs from the hip-hop and reggae scenes in Tsuyama, an historic castle town in northern Okayama Prefecture.

These collaborators include his long-time MASTER BULLDOG partner YAMATO, YAS, DON KABACHI, J-REXXX, DOS PAGUNASS, ILL BUSTA, Benizakura, and HKR.

4PRIDE officially started his music activities in 1999, leading the crews B.O.T and later GHETTO 4 PRIDE in addition to his solo activities. He released the mini-album rebirth in 2010. His second full-length album Teppan followed in August 2015.
