Honkey Kong

King Kong ain't got shit on Apathy, the veteran underground fan favorite from the muthaf--kin' East Coast. Excuse the language, but to put it frankly this self-proclaimed gorilla has torn stages down worldwide and gained an aggressively dedicated following since his first raps surfaced on Jedi Mind Tricks' cult-classic debut in 1997. Always repping his Demigodz, Army of the Pharaohs and Get Busy Committee crew affiliations proudly, the widely talented wordsmith continues his rampage with his 3rd official studio solo album, Honkey Kong. A fitting title for a monster of an LP, this disc features an eyebrow-raising clientele of producers including DJ Premier, Evidence, DJ Muggs, Statik Selektah and Da Beatminerz. Joining forces with Apathy on the mic duties are the upperclassmen of respected MCs with a line-up that features Xzibit, Vinnie Paz, Celph Titled, Ill Bill, Slaine, General Steele (of Smif-N-Wessun), Mad Lion, Action Bronson and his AOTP brethren Esoteric, Outerspace and Reef the Lost Cauze. Released on Apathy and Celph Titled's own label, Dirty Version Records, this marks the first release for the new imprint and will set a monumental tone for their future releases. As a bonus, an extra disc is included which contains seven bonus tracks from Apathy featuring Eternia, Diabolic, Blacastan and Scoop Deville.
