One of my most anticipated not only Hip-Hop, but album’s across all of music for 2024 is Philmore Greene’s upcoming highly-anticipated new album, The Grand Design. That is set to release exactly two weeks from tomorrow on, Oct. 25th and as we inch closer to the release date the Chicago emcee gives yet another preview of the album with his newest single, Whole Time. That is already the fifth single from Philmore Greene for the highly-anticipated new album.
The brand new single from Greene finds him collaborating with longtime friend and collaborator, as well as fellow Chicago native Rashid Hadee. Who also like many of their collaborations together is not only on the hook, but also produced the track. Hadee’s very nostalgically grand old school sounding keys and chants on the production, the perfect backdrop for both Philmore Greene and Skyzoo, who is also featured on the track.
As Greene with such bars as, “Philly lines is hitting like a voltage. Put my name in Tidal, press play and let it shock your body. Close your eyes and let me show you the ghetto. When the crack smoking stick, now your vision is foggy. She gave the pipe to her son. Now drilling is his hobby. And the FEDs came and dearly departed the posse. These ain’t rhymes, these ain’t lines. These are Persian death threats on the page, but I spit it in varsity.” Plus Skyzoo with such bars as, “My neighborhood was for sale before we saw the signs. The ye been put on the scale and the city come alive. And everyone who is alive is getting underlined in the trunk. Due to the trunk having a help coming sign. Pause it. It is what it is. And putting the culture first. And when you really is who you is. It’s all unrehearsed, 16’s brung a hearst. I am here cause I want the purse. But the only thing over my shoulders is a sash with a Huey Newton flag. Not a cross body bag. So I never gotta worry about a pause being attached.” Showing once again from both with their second collaboration together why they are two of the best emcees and lyricist’s alive.
