For any group to name themselves are Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, the music has to be as heavy and revolutionary as the two legendary leaders. DJ Revolution, Styliztik Jones, and KB Imean are seeking to do just that with their mixtape called Malcolm and Martin were…Criminal Minded.
DJ Revolution founded this group with the objective of inspiring future community leaders. This mixtape, which serves as a lead for their 2011 debut LP, is an ambitious remake of BDP’s classic 1987 album Criminal Minded. The core of the beats remain intact, but with new lyrics from the emcees, and cuts and scratches from DJ Revolution.
The entire project can be previewed at the link below. The first single, “Pigs Is Over,” substitutes the police as the diss targets over the Juice Crew.
Their album Life Doesn’t Frighten Me will hit stores on February 1, 2011 via SoulSpazm Records.
