SMKA Productions
While it’s obvious Atlanta has become the center of the hip-hop universe, few artists have been able capture the city’s musical diversity on one album until now. Produced by natives 808 Blake and 7King, The 808 Experiment pays homage to the days of Southerplayalisticcadillacmuzik, while embracing the underground, hipster-hop movement that has taken the city by storm. From the trunk-rattling “Caddys” to eccentric “Sweet Confusion” 808 Blake and 7King provide the perfect canvas for the MC’s to show artists within. –gavin philip godfrey
