Hannibal Stax & Marco Polo ft. Torae - Warriorz Drum
- Artist: Hannibal Stax
- Track: Warriorz Drum
- Feat. Marco Polo, Torae
- Producer: Marco Polo
- Album: Seize the Day
Last month, B.K. rhymesayer Hannibal Stax and veteran producer Marco Polo kicked off promotion for their collaborative debut album with 48 Bars of Death, a grimy, lyrically-oriented selection which earned praise in the Booth for its “throwback vibe.” If you were feeling that record, odds are you'll also be “lovin' the sound” of the follow-up, which finds Stax and a Booth-acclaimed guest marching into battle to the rhythm of Polo's Warriorz Drum. Over the Canadian beatsmith's overpowering percussion and tense string/bell flourishes, Hannibal trades aggressive verses with Coney Island-repping reader fave Torae. Like what you're hearing? More intricate street lyricism and quality boom-bap boardwork awaits on Seize the Day, released yesterday via Soulspazm Records and available to stream here.
