Insomniac Rap Show- A few throwbacks

Welcome to The Insomniac Rap Show, where I share YouTube videos until I get sleepy.

Let's start with my favorite Joell Ortiz song:

(JOELL ORTIZ + SALAAM REMI) x 5 = BOX TALK EP #NowPlaying

Everybody knows I love grimy New Yorican Slaughterhouse alum Joell Ortiz, but pairing him up with a venerated veteran beatmaker like Salaam Remi for this quick 5-track EP BOX TALK is unfair...

(Apollo Brown + Joell Ortiz) x Royce Da 5'9 = Timberlan'd Up

The buzz for Mona Lisa (the upcoming Apollo Brown/ Joelle Ortiz collabo record) continues with the release of Timberlan'd Up featuring Jo-Jo's fellow Slaughterhouse alum RoyceDa 5'9

Apollo Brown + Joell Ortiz dropping a collabo album? Where do I sign?!?

Detroit is a hornets nest of dope producers, and Apollo Brown is one of the best.  Also, everyone knows I fux with Brooklyn-based Slaughterhouse alum Joell Ortiz.  The duo has come together to drop a new 11-track album called MONA LISA, which is due out this fall.  Stream the first single Decisions below...

The Joell Ortiz Banger that inspired this sketch

You may have already heard God Forbid by Joell Ortiz.  It's not a new song, but it is one of my favorite songs I've heard in a minute.  I discovered it on Soundcloud, and it has been in heavy rotation since.
