Before your eyes and ears, you have two of New York’s (semi)forgotten treasures. Sadat X of the Bran Nubians (yes, Lord Jamar’s group) and Cormega are highly respected veterans of what many still call the Golden Age of this here genre. Get down with the resurgent sound of two vets firing themselves up over a killer beat that manages to weld these MCs’ old-school aesthetic to a piece of modern-day music. Enjoy “On Fire” below.
