The album marks a celebration of the pair's friendship and working together for over three decades, and also coincidentally will drop during the label's 30th anniversary year.

A video documentary filmed by Tone & Frost which covers their entire story from the beginning, and also reflects on the evolution of hip hop itself over that time, will premiere shortly after the album releases next year.

The label have just released a new album video trailer on Youtube as an early taste of what to expect
