Exotic Jewels

2nd Floor Samurais (Kensho Kuma x Orukusaki) teamed up with veteran Zulu Ink One for “Exotic Jewels.” The production was handled by Ink and the mixing and mastering was done by Just Jay @Hall of Fame studio in Oakland. It’s free for DL.. a flashy, fun banger you can rock to in the whip…

Kuma Verse:

I’m fresh dressed like a million bucks/ my charisma make the chickenheads blush/ yall need to be giving it up/ we are 2FS, competition get crushed/ Exotic Jewels, worn by the warlord/ rare-ass Adidas and Nikes in my wardrobe/ playing this game, don’t care ’bout a scoreboard/ flashing with fashion, and also mi flow form/ yeah, my grandfather’s peacoat/ I rock with some Wallabees, slaughtering your egos/ we know the vision that’s shown to the people/ don’t mean shit, unless you back it up with c-notes/ stay on the grind, work multiple jobs/ walk in God’s light amongst men full of Jihad/ we are M.O.P. fans, keep it rugged and raw/ but I’ll bang a model chick in a luxury car/

Us Against Them feat. Khafre Jay

I teamed up with Khafre Jay of BPos, who is the front man of the non-profit organization Hip Hop for Change. In no way, shape, or form do I consider myself to be a political rapper, but with so much shit going on, this track only seemed natural. Production was handled by Ink One of Zulu Nation, and mixing/ mastering was done by Just Jay at Hall of Fame Studios in Oakland.
