Download: (Myka 9 - 1969)

Legendary Freestyle Fellowship cofounder Myka 9 and Fake Four Records are readying a hip-hop release infused with soul, funk, and even disco for 2009 called 1969. Not since 1993’s “Park Bench People”, a classic joint detailing Myka’s own struggle with homelessness, has this LA emcee created such personal and poignant album. 1969, the year of Myka’s birth, is a nostalgic trip filled with references to the culture and sounds of Motown, hippies, psychedelics, choppers and Cadillacs– things that surrounded him throughout his early childhood. Guest appearances on 1969 include his Project Blowed comrades Aceyalone, Busdriver, and Awol One.

Myka says of his inspiration to get back into the studio recently: “Maybe it has something to do with being older and wiser. I got a lot of ideas. I feel it’s time to share these concepts with others.”
