Blakk North & Gino Black are sick and tired of disloyal friends and the result is their new single release called, “FAKE”!

Blakk North & Gino Black drop another collaboration on the smooth yet compelling “FAKE”. This time around the two are telling stories about fake people. Over a funky laid back groove these two lyricists discuss their social stance on truth and loyalty amongst friends and colleagues. They each tell tales of betrayal and deceit from their respective pasts. The guitar arrangement on “FAKE” is hypnotic in the way that the listener may or may not catch the social commentary at first listen. Both Blakk North & Gino Black have respectively been building quite the catalog for themselves individually as well as the multiple songs together.
Blakk North is a Cincinnati Ohio based recording artist who has been making noise regionally for many years. He’s recently seen a surge in activity and has grown an audience fan base of over 130,000 listeners within the last two years.
Gino Black is a Miami Florida based multi-genre producer and recording artist. He’s originally from Cincinnati, where he and Blakk North met. Gino Black currently has an audience of over 500, 000 listeners. He’s produced records for other artists who’ve also seen significant indie music success. And in 2021 he began releasing music as a solo artist and has seen a swift impact with his unique style of music.
“FAKE” is available now on all music streaming services!

Speaking on the significance of the album title Thirstin Howl The 3rd relayed “I was having lunch in Los Angeles with my friend Abnormal (who was on The Lyricist Lounge TV show with me and was also the voice of Hip Hop Harry on Children’s TV). In the middle of the conversation, he dropped that quote from the Bible and I said, wow, that’s a perfect title for one of my albums.”
Of the recording process he also said “I record music all the time so I’m not necessarily envisioning which tracks will go on a specific project, but I do send specific tracks to artists that I think would sound good on there. However Young Hump was in the studio for all the tracks he appears on (three of them) and Psycho Les and Tash were staying with me in Miami when they were working on The Liknuts project.”
Also coming this year is the long awaited short musical film Don Chicharron which also features Latin Hip-Hop legends Hurricane G (RIP, who was the first female member of EPMD’s Hit Squad), TMP AKA The Microphone Prince (the first latin emcee to sign to a major label),DJ Exes (also of Grupo HNE) as well as Lo-Life affiliate/emcee Luey The 4th.
