M1, one-half of Revolutionary but Gangstaduet dead prez, dropped his collaborative project with Italian producer Bonnet for Between Me & The World.
The nine-track project features the Prodigy-assisted track “Number One With a Bullet.” Its title is flip of words on Ta-Nehisi Coates’ award-winning book, Between the World and Me.
Speaking with DX in February, M1 had this to say about the album.
“It’s interesting. My new album is called Between Me & The World and I wrote the album in the process of a lot of things happening such as a lot of murder and death. I mean watching from the inside out to outside in. I recorded it in Italy from outside of the United States watching the reaction to Mike Brown, Eric Garner and Freddie Gray. I read a book by Ta-Nehisi Coates called Between The World & Me. That book really influenced the title track of the album. At the end of the day, I feel like examining the situation going on in the world in different ways. Soon there’s going to be a solution that was the same as it always was. People aren’t going to accept the same old conclusions about how we’re treated here and what justice really means.”
