On the sixth anniversary of his tragic passing, the estate of the late Phife Dawg has released his posthumous album Forever.
“I am really excited for Phife and his legacy. I know he is somewhere smiling and reading the credits and staring at artwork,” the album’s executive producer Dion “Rasta Root” Liverpool says. Phife Dawg’s wife, Deisha Taylor, addd, “We are overwhelmed with excitement about the release of Malik’s album. We’ve waited six years for this, so our joy is boundless.”
A 13-track effort, led by the singles “Nutshell pt. 2” and the title track (which was the final song Phife would ever record, as he would pass away only a few days later), the project features a wide array of guests: Rapsody, Busta Rhymes, Redman, Q-Tip, De La Soul, Little Brother, and many more.
