Suburban Noize Records Releases Final Saint Dog LP 'Funky Soul'!

Suburban Noize Records recently released  the final Saint Dog (Kottonmouth Kings)  LP 'Funky Soul'!  And its brimming with bangers! You can support hard copies of 'Funky Soul' through the official Subnoize Store via  https://subnoizestore.com/products/saint-dog-funky-soul-cd From Legends Will Never Die: "This is the 4th & final solo LP from Chisholm, Minnesota emcee Saint Dog. Coming up as a member of the trio P.T.B. with D-Loc & Johnny Richter, all 3 of whom would later form the Kottonmouth Kings with Daddy X in 1996 & departed 3 years later. He nonetheless remained on Suburban Noize Records & made his solo debut with Ghetto Guide that celebrated its 20 year anniversary in February. This would be followed up with U.S.A. (Unconformable Social Amputees) & Bozo, the latter being in tandem with Force 5 Records. In commemoration of what would’ve been the O.G. King’s 49th birthday, the Funky Soul will always live on."

"The title track featuring Chucky Chuck, The DRP & Obnoxious starts with all 4 of them dropping hardcore bars over a funky instrumental whereas “Ms. Demeanor” produced by Fiasco Andretti goes full-blown g-funk with Saint talking about a chick that he considers freak of the year. “Love Affair” works in an acoustic sound thanks to The DRP making it clear that there ain’t no kindness, but then we get treated to a remix of the highlight “1 More” off KMK’s 14th & to date final group album Kingdom Come."

“Rock & Roll Gangsta” resurrects some classics vibes altogether talking about being Heaven sent on a mission leading into “Trap Jaw” featuring Danny Diablo & Son of Saint brings the trio together over a psychedelic g-funk beat making fun of everyone wanting to rap. “Rydaz” gets the whole Force 5 roster together a rap rock label posse cut & after another Kingdom Come standout “Loyalty is Royalty” making it’s way onto the track listing, the song “Backlash” featuring Big Hoss maintains a rap rock sound bringing ruckus & “I Know” ends with another stripped-back acoustic joint."

"Capturing the essence of West Coast hip hop that shaped the genre with a blend of gritty g-funk, robust grooves & Saint Dog’s signature hypnotic flow, Funky Soul marks a return to his roots by evoking the spirit of his early days in Placentia, California as a Kottonmouth King in what would eventually become a posthumous musical sendoff that would make him proud knowing that his legacy will always live on. Many of both Subnoize & Force 5’s artists who appear on it were influenced by Saint Vicious & I thought that was a well displayed attribute worth mentioning."

RIP Saint Dog! Thank you for all the music after all these years!
