Exclusive: A public invite to the "I've Been Here For Years" video, as Knoc-turn'al's 2010 album will likely feature MC Eiht, Yukmouth and Jayo Felony.

California emcee and 2001 contributor Knoc-turn'al is readying his third official album, Knoc's Ville. Released on Hoopla Media Group/Treacherous Records, this album is tenatively set to feature MC Eiht, Jayo Felony and Yukmouth. One artist, a fellow Treacherous signee, that is confirmed to appear on Knoc's Ville is Crooked I.

Knoc and the Slaughterhouse emcee will collaborate for Knoc's Ville first single, "I've Been Here For Years." The song also features past Too Short and E-40 collaborator James Elizabeth. The trio are intending to shoot an upcoming video for the single, which welcomes the public to appear. The video will be shot in California, and those wishing to partake may contact Jonathan Hay at JonHay@Gmail.com.

“I’m glad everyone is excited for the project. I’m excited to get it out," Knoc-turn'al said to HipHopDX in a statement. "I’m working hard to get it out by the end of year. Ideally, I’d love to have it out for Halloween because I think it really fits that theme but if not by then, by the end of 2010 for sure. I can’t let another year go by without me serving my fans that Knoc-turn’al music. That goes for my International fans as well. I’ve always kept it true to the west coast and Knoc’s Ville is no different.”

Executives from both imprints added that this will be Knoc's proper follow-up to 2004's major label release, The Way I Am, which boasted production from Dr. Dre, DJ Quik and Warren G. Treacherous also said that after Knoc's Ville, the emcee will release an EP with DXnext alum/label-mate One-2.

Just read this an hr or so ago.  So what's happening with The Book Of Knoc?  Perhaps I missed the news regarding it's release  ???

Anyways. I'm interested in hearing the new record.  Wonder if Pentagon is going to be on there?

Album could feature Mc Eiht, what's the bets on Comptonrida to start sending death threats to Luna and Knoc. Jokes aside looking forward to hearing this album.

Full album. Never no mixtape. Was called a street album before but this is an album. All original production, original rhymes. 17 full tracks, no skits, dj tags, etc.

U will see it before 2010 is over.

It's not on Treacherous.. They've done everything they need to do. We have everything we need from them. Now we turn into our physical distributor in September and wait for them to get it out. 8-12 weeks.

 I love it when Treacherous Records makes announcements.  Each one is more classic than the last.

^ That was "Book of Knoc."

It's been about a year since the decision was made to do "Knoc's Ville"

you announced knocsville as a free download to come out like a week before the  album would. basically you changed the name of the album but its the same bullshit with the release

As a free download? Find me that if you could. Don't recall that as all. Before I even managed him, first thing I was told about Knoc's Ville was it was to be sold.

A week before the album would? Don't recall that either.. Find me that..

It's not a change of album name. The music for Knoc's Ville & Book of Knoc are different. Both those albums are completely done. I'd say only two songs off Book of Knoc were taken off to be put on Knoc's Ville (Sorry I Left You & Theme Music). Besides that, two completely different albums.
