BEST GUIDE TO HIP HOP EVENTS, SHOWS & CONCERTS x SOCIAL NETWORK
WATCH JOEY PURP AND RZA ABSOLUTELY DEMOLISH 'GODBODY PT. 2' ON THE TONIGHT SHOW
PATRICK HOSKEN • 10/23/2018
Joey Purp's QUARTERTHING is one of the strongest hip-hop albums of the year, led by the 24-year-old Chicago MC's penchant for hopping from style to style, never settling in for too long on one approach. This is clear right from the beginning, when Joey teams up with RZA to break down the house on the album's blistering second track, "Godbody Pt. 2."
On Monday night (October 22), the pair brought the pulse-pounding cut to The Tonight Show for a grand unveiling wrapped in big percussion and howling keyboards. "I'm in the building, I'm on the building, I own the building," Joey raps near the end. And you believe him.
The coolest part about this particular performance is its simplicity. No synchronized flames flash to the beat. Joey doesn't bound from one end of the stage to another. In fact, he stays stone still, reciting his rhymes like a bold sermon of self while a cloud of noise rises around him.
