Artist: Leather Corduroys
Track: Prophet
Feat. Joey Purp, KAMI
Producer: THEMpeople
Album: Untitled EP

Joey Purp and Kami de Chukwu, two previously-featured members of Chi-town's SAVEMONEY collective, have come together to form hip-hop duo Leather Corduroys. Their first release as a crew, new promo single Prophet, finds the rhymesayers doing a little lyrical soothsaying over a dreamy, sampled beat by THEMPeople. While neither their nor guest emcee theMIND's bars feature much in the way of concrete prophecies, I can make one airtight prediction based on the agile, witty rhymes on display here: we'll be hearing a lot more from Leather Corduroys in the near future. This joint isn't attached to a larger project but, as always, those who like what they're hearing can keep it locked.
