We previously told you about Bryan E. getting three of Toronto’s finest rappers to create a musical accompaniment to his upcoming collection for his Legends League clothing line. And after a few singles and some impatient waiting, we now have the full project to jam out to from Rich Kidd, Tona, and Adam Bomb. Naturally Born Strangers features the three artists flowing like they’ve been working as a trio forever over some great and somber Rich Kidd instrumentals.
“Naturally Born Strangers represents those born and raised different who don’t associate themselves with the common communal circles. It’s a proclamation of pride in the power of being disliked, unwanted or obscure, weird or foreign to the norm. It’s for the stranger and the more strange, the new community of outcasts, the antithesis to the neighbourhood and the cynics of its circles. NBS is the umbrella title to those influenced by much, deterred by nothing and unknown the world over.
It’s a reflection of our societies vision of “normal”. The queen is represented to create familiarity but has been tainted to identify the strange. It’s fuck government, fuck the system, fuck money, fuck fame, fuck art.”
