Gimmie That Beat

Philly producer Small Professor compiled and remastered his favorite tracks into the stunning and unmissable A Jawn Supreme project. Kicking off with Vol. 1 , the gifted beatsmith breathes new life into 12 tracks that now sound better than ever while also evoking timeless, unfortunate truths about our society. This album reflects these days and times, especially during the hellscape that is 2020, on nearly every cut. But it’s particularly evident on standout single “wish cops would stop killing unarmed black people” , which Pro actually produced in 2015 following the death of Freddie Gray in the custody of Baltimore police officers. "A Jawn Supreme Vol. 1" is available now through your preferred digital retailer or streaming platform, with Vol. 2 and Vol. 3 due out Aug 21 and Oct 16 , respectively. And on Cassette Store Day , which this year is Oct. 17 , you can buy all three installments on a single cassette. It’s all being released through Small Pro ’s Beat Gol...

Philly producer Small Professor shares an incredibly poignant single, “wish cops would stop killing unarmed black people” , which he's dedicating to the memory of Breonna Taylor . The piano-laced song centers on a flip of Special Ed ’s powerful verse from “Crooklyn” , which resonates just as strongly now as it did for Spike Lee ’s 1994 classic film. The track will be featured on the first volume of Small Pro ’s A Jawn Supreme series due out next Friday, June 26 , through all major digital retailers and streaming platforms with future installments dropping later this year.

Hip Hop which is a genre (read: culture) created by Black & Latino people, welcomed me in, and for that I’m forever grateful. I don’t know what it’s like to be Black in America and to have to deal with things my friends, family & fellow humans have to face on a daily basis. I make my living from HipHop/Black culture - I’m donating 100% of the proceeds from my new EP to the NAACP LDF. Donating all of the proceeds is not enough but it’s PART of what I’m doing to help create change; along with protesting, signing petitions, using my platform to benefit humanity and last but not least; I won’t be a shitty person. - J57 Source: Brown Bag AllStars ALL PROCEEDS FROM THIS EP GO TO THE NAACP LDF by J57
