[EP] TIMBO KING / KRIMEWAVE - "Street Scholars"

I've always been a huge fan of Timbo King, the front man of Royal Fam and one of the most prominent Wu-Tang Killa Beez since day 1, so when UK producer Krimewave revealed a few years back that he and 'Bo King had recorded an entire album I was of course flabbergasted. This was long before 2011:s "From Babylon to Timbuk2" hit stores, but unfortunately a lot of things had come into the picture making it hard to release the collaboration LP. But like they say, those who wait for something good never wait too long, and now a three track single from Krimewave and Timbo King's work together is here. Timbo spits as much knowledge as usual, with that unmistakable voice and cadence and Krimewave have given him a lot of heat to work with. I'm real glad to finally be able to hear this, and I hope this ends up being just s a preview to the actual LP (which if I recall correctly is supposed to be called "Burried Treasures"). You can stream all three tracks below, but fantastic news is that this is actually available as a limited 12" release so grab 'em while you can! From London to Brooklyn baby...
