Single: Philthy Rich – “Statue of Liberty” ft. E-40, Nef The Pharaoh & Ezale (Prod. by JuneOnTheBeat)
The Oakland Rapper Teams Up With The Bay’s Best and Brightest In Advance Of Real N*ggas Back In Style LP
02.18.2016
The Song:
“Statue of Liberty” is a crash course in pimpin’ from a “murderer’s row” of the Bay Area’s most noted slick talkers. Oakland street rap vet Philthy Rich enlists E-40 in addition to newcomers Nef The Pharaoh and Ezale as they dash through four verses boasting about territory while spilling feelings on the pimp game between a chopped up chorus. Complex premiered the track, calling it an “all-star scrimmage of lyrical skills from the rappers involved.” Produced by JuneOnnaBeat, “Statue of Liberty” is the latest release from Philthy Rich’s Real N*ggas Back In $tyle, which is available for pre-order and features guest appearances from Mozzy, Iamsu!, Young Dolph, Zoey Dollaz, Nef The Pharaoh, E-40, Jim Jones and more and production by 808 Mafia, Zaytoven, KC da Beatmonster and more. Late last year, Philthy Rich released the well-performing single “Make A Living“ with Iamsu! and a just a few weeks ago shared “Buss Down,” which features Young Scooter. This album, Real N*ggas Back In $tyle, will be the first of series of three albums with the same title.
“Me and 40 got a good relationship,” Philthy Rich explains to Complex. “The hook is a quote he says in the song with Big Sean. I liked it and had someone make a beat based on it. E-40 reached out to me when I was in jail through my video director who had done videos for 40. He said that 40 said, ‘When you get home, I want to work with you,’ so when I came home and I ended up acting in one of his videos ‘Me and My Bitch’ and then he jumped on my album for the song ‘Feel’n Like Pac’ off my Trip’n 4 Life album.” Philthy Rich recruited Nef The Pharaoh after the two collaborated on Nef’s “SayDaat” and East Oakland MC Ezale after a chance meeting in Las Vegas. Philthy Rich releases Real N*ggas Back In Style on February 26th.
