Special releases new album

Special released his new LP Special Ingredient this past weekend. The album features appearances from hip hop veterans Craig G and Sadat X as well as DJ Hush, Oriana and Truezt.

Special releases his new FREE album Special Ingredient. The project features guest verses from Juice Crew Alumni Craig G (Fresh off the release of his Ramblings of an Angry Old Man project) and the great Sadat X of Brand Nubian/Wild Cowboys fame. The collection of songs range from gritty 90’s hip-hop to g-funk. Special isn’t out for the crown, but rather to make a solid contribution to the genre that raised him into the man he is today.
