FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Revolutionary Hip-Hop Icon Paris Preps New Album


San Francisco, CA - Bay Area rapper/activist Paris is preparing to release his latest album, Acid Reflex, on September 9th on his own Guerrilla Funk Recordings and Filmworks, LLC, distributed by Fontana/Universal. The rapper's first single, "Don't Stop the Movement," features newcomer T-K.A.S.H. and will be released early August.

Download "Don't Stop The Movement" here.

The album comes just in time for election year and contains commentary on a wide range of topics including black-on-black crime and violence, the ongoing problem of police brutality, war, politics and what Paris calls "the need for more of an equal balance between positive and negative influences in entertainment." Acid Reflex is the latest installment of cutting-edge funk-and-rock-inspired hip-hop in a career spanning the sale of over 3.8 million units independently worldwide. It features performances by Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee and Parliament/Funkadelic frontman George "Dr. Funkenstein" Clinton, Public Enemy leader Chuck D and Paris-protégé T-K.A.S.H..

"There's no time like the present to speak out on issues and use the most popular form of musical entertainment to motivate and inform," says Paris, a seasoned multi-instrumentalist who also serves as the album's producer. "That's why I decided to call the album Acid Reflex - it's an aggressive response to what I see going on. There are a lot of people out there who feel like mainstream music doesn't truly reflect their concerns or how they feel. Our art form is being kept artificially young and artificially dumb. Listeners of all ages are noticing that there's more to what we do than what's given us on the radio and on t.v."

In other news, Paris has expanded his Guerrilla Funk brand to include a film division, with projects slated for release with featured contributions from multi-platinum Grammy™ award winner Common, multi-platinum Grammy™ award winner André 3000, multi-platinum Grammy™ award winners The Dixie Chicks, Talib Kweli, Public Enemy, George Clinton, The Coup, NOFX, Michael Franti, Anti-Flag and Tom Morello, among others.

No problem.  Yeah the single is excellent IMO and I actually like the hook. It grows on you after a few spins 

No doubt this will be the real raw footage.  No gimmicks just real shit.

And the tracklist I posted up earlier had only 12 tracks.  I guess the album is actually 15 according to Lunatic 

There is also a 10 minute version of Dont Stop The Movement

Im Coppin This Shyt....

[Lunatic]

The album is indeed 15 tracks long. I highly doubt the promo copy I received/they are sending out differs from the retail.

props to Nicole, she's a fantastic person!

[Dre-Day]

it's not possible to pre-order the album ( yet), is it?

[Laconic]

i see; well i don't see the album listed on amazon.com either so i guess not 

[Klue]

hella dope

[Dre-Day]

on a side note, i wonder why guerilla funk doesn't submit news/material of this album, to dubcnn directly, like a couple of other labels do for their artists   

[Laconic]

Bump...people are sleeping on this.  At least download and listen once 

I know Lunatic is supposed to interview Paris but I'm wondering if DUBCNN is also looking to do that 

And this beat is kinda of reminiscent of Field Nigga Boogie of Sonic Jihad.
