Each exclusive track will have limited-edition digital collectibles available for $125 each, with only 100 digital collectibles available per track. This offers fans a unique and valuable piece of hip-hop history.
Rakim explores a range of themes across these three tracks, showcasing his signature flow and production style:
“Love is the Message” – A powerful anthem featuring Rakim alongside Nipsey Hussle (R.I.P.), Planet Asia, Gala Music’s own Louis King, Snoop Dogg, a full choir, and a violin quartet. This track calls for love and unity in a world of violence and hardship.
“God’s Playground” – A thought-provoking and emotional journey exploring the importance of maintaining composure and focus amidst life’s challenges. Rakim collaborates with underground legends .38 Spesh, Fred the Godson (R.I.P.), and Skyzoo, with a powerful closing verse from the late legend D.M.X (R.I.P.).
“Pendulum Swing” – Rakim’s first-ever fully orchestrated posse cut. This monumental track features Rakim alongside Kxng Crooked (Slaughterhouse), L.A. the Darkman (Wu-Tang), Canibus (Refugee Camp), and Chino XL, delivering a masterclass in lyrical dominance.
Rakim’s collaboration with Gala Music demonstrates his willingness to embrace new technologies and distribution methods, proving that even established artists can adapt and connect with new audiences. Gala Music offers both longtime fans and newcomers a unique opportunity to experience Rakim’s artistry in a fresh way. His willingness to explore unconventional distribution channels exemplifies how innovation can foster lasting connections with listeners.
