Skanks- Martyr Music (Astronote rmx) (single)

I'm only just now becoming familiar with NY-based emcee Skanks after stumbling upon this Astronote-produced remix of his single "Marytr Music" this morning. And while I haven't had a chance to get real deep into his past work, I have no problem saying that this dude is arguably one of the rawest emcees making a name for himself today. From start to finish, Skanks tears into the mic and sets fire to any and all lameness in his area with an energy that's rarely seen outside of battle rap ciphers nowadays. Nothing but raw lyrics and live production from  Astronote. Dig the sounds.

If you dig what you're hearing, head over to Shinigamie Records' Bandcamp page (here) and get your copy of Skanks' debut album The Shinigami Flowfessional.
