Out today through New Dawn Records, "Cold Start" is the fourth single taken from the upcoming album release "Cautionary Tales" by Anthony Kannon and Frost Gamble, and finds the award winning Ithacan rapper in aspirational mood.
Through a free flowing stream of quick fire rhymes, the desire to break free from the shackles forged by the code of the streets through the power of the pen is clear. The optimism of ambition to emerge from the rat race focused and unscathed is the narrative, underpinned by Frost's uptempo soundtrack fused by soulful breaks and beats.
The pair have also just announced two upcoming live events to mark the release of the album on October 20th. On Thursday October 26th, the pair play The Osborne Taphouse in Winnipeg followed by a further show on Saturday November 18th at Deep Dive in Ithaca where Anthony will perform the entire album with a live band and special guest Justo the MC, while Frost provides a DJ set.
