Shabazz Palaces – “Swerve…”
on September 1, 2011
Shabazz Palaces, lead by MC Ishmael Butler of Digable Planets, stretches the boundaries of hip-hop with experimental beats and a jazzy poetic flow. “Swerve…” was released back in June as part of the group’s debut LP, Back Up.

*The song’s full title is actually “Swerve… the Reeping of All That is Worthwhile (Noir Not Withstanding).” It was shortened in this post for reading purposes.
