Official press release: Legendary hip hop producer Pete Rock is preparing for the release of his new album, "NY’s Finest", on February 26th via Nature Sounds records. The album is his first in four years, and was produced almost entirely by Pete Rock, with one track contributed by producer Green Lantern. “I called it [NY’s Finest] because I feel like that’s me. I’m one of New York’s finest producers,” he explains. In fact, not only is Pete Rock one of New York’s finest producers, but the album itself is one of Pete Rock’s finest creations. He even pays homage to the classic James Brown double-disc, "Hell", with the cover art.

Fans have already caught a glimpse of what to expect from NY’s Finest with new single “We Roll” featuring Jim Jones, along with b-side “Till I Retire” (in stores now) and “914” featuring Styles P and Sheek Louch. The record also features appearances by Wu-Tang’s Raekwon and Masta Killa, Papoose, Little Brother, and Redman. A special iTunes version of the album will also contain a bonus track with Slum Village.

We have the three preview tracks available for ya'll, get them below:

Pete Rock - We Roll (ft. Jim Jones)
Pete Rock - Till I Retire
Pete Rock - 714 (ft. Styles P & Sheek Louch)

914 with styles and sheek came out awhile ago, but its a good song regardless.

I like the beat for the first single but personally jim jones ruins the track

We Roll has almost the same beat as "I Direct" by Hittman

But props man, looking forward to it. Pete Rock is a legend, no doubt.
