Video After The Jump
Springfield, Massachusetts emcee D Got Bars is back like her never like he never left with official visuals for his "Ghostface Freestyle" over the classic "All That I Got Is You" instrumental from Ghostface Killah.
Returning with their second collaborative project within the past six months Harlem, NY heavyweight G4Jag has cooked up again with Mephux on the beats. The resulting full-length entitled Regressions, boasts contributions from their fellow Lord Mobb brethren Flee Lord, Eto, BVNG’s, Aaqil Ali, Mercy Da Harlem Kid and Trillmatic (from Trillmatic Premium Goods).
Combining G4’s highly introspective and relatable to the have-not’s lyrical narratives over dusted jazz, soul and even samples from Russian sound-sources, it’s that head-nod music for the spirit. Another guest on the album is Mephux’s mother, Olga, who spits some flavor in Russian on the aforementioned joint built with Soviet samples.
Speaking on the album title, the emcee relayed “our last EP was Progression, which was dropped on 9-11 (I always drop a project on that date, I was two blocks away from the Towers when the planes hit, so it’s a form of reverence on my part). This release, Regressions addresses the steps we need for balance, including me as a man, a black-man, a father and as a human.
Recently G4 has been on a tear dropping quality project after quality project in a quick succession. This includes for his own Fly Family imprint as well as for the newly formed super-collective Lord Mobb (under Flee Lord’s banner), Dough Networkz Presents and the Trust Comes First Music Group (38 Spesh’s label). He is also hard-at-work promoting his Fly Family artist Aaqil Ali including his role of executive producer for Ali’s recently released Dirty Spirits album.

Many artist / brands have a lane that they are comfortable moving in. If you had to describe your lane and where you feel the most comfortable what would that lane be? The lane of observation, the humble lane but the dont take no shit lane. Im very key on relationships, but kissing ass was never a sport i played lol.#RealRecognizeReal
What is your ultimate goal for the Stack or Starve brand?
Well i feel we have already set trends and had success at breaking artists in the market and taking the dj crew to the next level as well as putting out classic projects. Now we want to continue breaking artists on a new level and let the new mixtape brands come in and do their thing. But ultimately its going to be doing some big tours and taking the brand to a corporate level.
Why should consumers support your movement / buy the brands you push. What separates you from every other brand ambassador? Independence first and foremost.We stay authentic to the streets and we also have an ear for talent as well as remain respected based on not forgetting where we come from. Im absolutely always confident that consumers are satisfied with our quality and vision for out presentations when it comes to the products and services. In addition, what seperates myself from these other brand ambassadors is im always ahead of the game and thinking of the next move to become the best move!
