The EP:
Today, Full |REBEL| Jacket, the Phoenix, by way of Dallas and Anchorage, duo of rappers G and Q are releasing their new EP, the REBEL EP. The project, offered to fans entirely for free, can be downloaded via their website and also via their Bandcamp, where fans can stream the full project.
Prior to releasing the REBEL EP, Full |REBEL| Jacket has released a string of impressive singles – with an equally impressive list of guest features. Story tracks like "Stray Bullet," which features Dungeon Family legend Big Rube, "Purple Lights," a motivational anthem that features BJ The Chicago Kid, and "Higher," the EP's jazziest song, which features Nikkiya, show off the breadth that Full |REBEL| Jacket embodies, not only in the range of their musicality – the REBEL EP is entirely self-produced – but also in the diversity of their subject matter, a trait that led Potholes In My Blog, which premiered the REBEL EP today, to write, "If you like your hip-hop soulful and, at times, militaristic, you would be wise to check out the REBEL EP."

The
Background:
Like Big Boi and André 3000, Pimp C and Bun B, Full |REBEL| Jacket is proof that when it comes to hip-hop, opposites attract. Formed in 2009 after a parking lot freestyle revealed that the two differing-skilled rappers had a chemistry, the duo of G, a Dallas, Texas native and rhyme partner Q, an Alaskan transplant, released their first two mixtapes under the name American Negro before reconfiguring themselves as Full |REBEL| Jacket during the making of their 2010 Loose Leaf series, a weekly installment of recorded freestyles the two compiled into a release. Packed with a moniker that fit the duo's mysterious aesthetic and inventive voice, Full |REBEL| Jacket began work on this year's the REBEL EP, the first project to find G and Q contributing their own beats and instrumentation to each track, and the result is Full |REBEL| Jacket's most concise and powerful project yet. The free EP, which includes features from Big Rube, BJ The Chicago Kid, Nikkiya, Chalie Boy, and more, will be released September 3rd.
