NEW YORK – Aug. 20, 2024 — Queens, NY – Queens emcee, attorney and political leader Mike “Pizon” Scala is set to release his new single “Bring Rawkus Back” featuring the legendary Kool G Rap on Friday, August 23rd, available on Spotify and all major streaming platforms. Produced by Cultxre with keyboards by Pablo Etchevest, the song pays tribute to the iconic Rawkus Records and its profound influence on the musical landscape.
“Bring Rawkus Back” recounts the story of Rawkus Records, the label that played a pivotal role in reshaping the music industry by nurturing talents that bridged the gap between mainstream and underground rap. The song vividly captures the label’s history, including the moment when it passed on signing Kanye West, who later fused the Rawkus-inspired sound with Def Jam’s resources to help redefine Hip Hop.
Pizon, a former Rawkus artist himself, expresses his reverence for the label’s legacy, suggesting the current era can use some of that flavor. Kool G Rap, who was also signed to the label, assures Pizon and listeners that the essence lives on, delivering his signature lyricism on the boom bap track.
The single is the lead from Pizon’s forthcoming album Mic Scholar (a play on his real name) due out this fall. The album promises to be a groundbreaking take on political rap and Hip Hop songwriting, drawing from Pizon’s multifaceted background.
