“Today OKP is premiering the latest tape from 2 Hungry Bros. Back For Seconds. The AOK Collective's producers bring you another serving of their rare grooves in order to promote their "modestly anticipated album" with 8thw1, No Room For Dessert. As far as this tape is concerned, you'll find features from Homeboy Sandman, P.SO, Fresh Daily, Silent Knight, Substantial, Senor Kaos, and more. Follow me after the jump to stream/download the project. Shout out to Steve.”

“Consisting of all winners or not, a bona fide crew is luxury for today’s fans, but it’s that same extra effort that makes the AOK Collective all winners in the first place. For the unfamiliar, this NYC squad consists of Homeboy Sandman (Unsigned Hype - The Source, June ‘08), Fresh Daily, P.CASSO (“Chairman Choice” in the current XXL), Nola Darling, 8thw1, and Naturel, with frequent beat providers 2 Hungry Bros . If you had to trace the lineage, the AOK probably has the most roots in the Native Tongues, with a serious knack for experimentation and the occasional willingness to have fun. (Remember fun?) But this is no whimsical, Daisy Age affair, and behind every trip to left field or onto the house party dance floor, these emcees have the technical chops to make sure you don’t get it twisted.”
