RHYME ASYLUM- SOLITARY CONFINEMENT



SOLITARY CONFINEMENT OUT NOW!!!!

AFTER A SPECIAL SHOW AT THE SOUL CELLAR RHYME ASYLUM LAUNCHED THEIR SECOND ALBUM..

WWW.RHYMEASYLUM.COM (CHECK OUT THE INCREDIBLE ARTWORK IN THE GALLERY SECTION, TRUST ME!)

The second instalment from Rhyme Asylum, this self-released album features, amongst others, US underground veterans Ill Bill (La Coka Nostra/Non-Phixion) and Crooked I (Slaughterhouse).

Eighteen tracks and no skits, the full length LP features production from Al’Tarba, Chemo, The Returners, Engineer, Hirolla, Think, Profound and Ill Fated; plus verses from New York emcee DarkStar and RA affiliate Reain.

The album art features photography from the incredibly talented RomanyWG. The photographer/Urbexer (Urban Explorer) produces phenomenal images in abandoned buildings across the world. During the album photo shoot, he captured shots of the group members inside a real, abandoned padded cell!

Like many other hip-hop outfits across the world, Rhyme Asylum are currently a totally independent venture. Aside from its obvious asylum-themed connotations, the title: ‘Solitary Confinement’ was intended as a metaphor for their independent, unsigned status. The group wanted to raise awareness of the difficulty of financing and self-releasing a project; emphasizing the importance of a loyal and supportive fan base. For without it there is no way the music can continue to grow…
