PUSH MANAGEMENT/GRAND HUSTLE/E1 MUSIC TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM BY MEMPHIS HIP HOP DUO 8BALL AND MJG
TEN TOES DOWN TO BE RELEASED ON APRIL 6TH, 2010
(New York, NY) –Push Management/Grand Hustle/E1 Music is happy to announce the release of Ten Toes Down, the highly anticipated new album by Memphis legends 8Ball & MJG. The album will be released on Push Management/Grand Hustle/E1 Music on April 6th, 2010.
Grand Hustle co-founder and hip hop icon T.I. states, “I’m happy to be working with America’s #1 independent, E1 Music.”
Ten Toes Down features Snoop Dogg, T.I., Bun B, David Banner, Young Dro with production by Frank Nitti of Nitti Beats, Drumma Boy, David Banner, Nard & B, and Mo B. Dick.
A video for the title track was just shot by director Gabriel Hart, and will be serviced shortly. Some behind the scenes footage can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVGD8Hq1t68.
Ever since the duo’s 1993 successful debut, “Comin’ Hard,” 8Ball & MJG have been at the forefront of the southern rap movement. They went on to release 11 albums, several of which went gold. Their 2004 Livin Legends album peaked at #3 on the Billboard Top 200. The duo later teamed up with Three 6 Mafia for the latter’s hit single “Stay Fly,” which brought both Memphis groups much success.
Grand Hustle’s Jason Geter comments, “T.I and I were thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Ball & Gee from the very beginning. We've both been fans, and this new album is classic Ball & Gee material & we're excited for the world to hear it.”
8Ball adds, “Ten Toes Down, in my opinion, is one of the best 8Ball & MJG albums ever. It's a heart-felt, soul-filled, portion of the lives of 8Ball & MJG. 8Ball & MJG sounds and feels like 8Ball & MJG on this album 4sho!"
Dewayne "Duprano" Martin, CEO, Push Management says, “The 8Ball & MJG / PUSH Management / E1 Music /Grand Hustle partnership is all about bringing the Urban Legends' music back to the streets.”
E1 Music President Alan Grunblatt adds, “I’m thrilled to work with 8Ball & MJG again. E1 and Grand Hustle will be unstoppable.”

And E1 means it'll actually come out! ;)
word... that's what I was thinking
had T.I. not gone to jail though I wonder if B.G.'s and this album would still release off Grand Hustle/Atlantic with no E1 involved

Good news, I been bumpin the shit out 10 toes down, it beats hard. They were on the cover of the Source a while ago with TI, hope he does better than bad boy did.

T.I. won't fuck with their creative control aka the music they wanna make, where-as Bad Boy definitely did (especially on their last/final bad boy album)

Living Legends was a solid album IMO but Ridin' High was definitely a step down... but it still had 9-10 dope or decent tracks, also a few wack ones that I'm sure 8Ball and MJG weren't exactly at fault for

Ya, I really liked Livin' Legends but Ridin' High had hit/miss. Some dope, some wack tracks.
