    Fresh Produce – Duce

    Duce is the latest musical offering from lyricist/producer duo DJ Red-I and Playne Jayne. These artists hit even harder than with their profound introduction, We Are Fresh Produce. I always enjoy their storytelling style. With rhymes like these, which instantly grab attention and will have your mind vivid with imagery, the entire album only reiterates how special and relevant this group is to Hip-Hop. Dj Red-I’s beats are something fresh while embodying the golden era. My current favorites are Black Brittany, Duce Is The Crew, Hit Him Up, Gold Pieces, They Left Me, and 2000 Years.

Listening to the full-length debut which resulted, it is evident that whatever occurred was destined. Their wonderful collaboration expresses perspectives which are commonly shared between many of those in black communities especially, but not only, and women. The song More Like You, for example, tells the story of a girl who grew up wishing she had features like her best friend, who was fairer skinned and the supposed preferred hour-glass body type.
