Psych Major links up with Sadat X for new single “Watch Your Six”
Emcee / Producer Psych Major returns with a new single this morning. “Watch Your Six” (military slang for ‘watch your back’) features another collaboration with the legend, Sadat X (the third collaborative track between the two to drop this year). Speaking on the track Psych said “it’s a story-telling joint. I based my verse on a character similar to the former Police Chief who tried to bury the initial Gilgo Beach investigation because he was afraid the feds would uncover his own corruption

While more of a behind-the-scenes player DJ Design’s (aka Keith Griego) work has had a sizable imprint on the history of modern hip-hop. As a DJ/Beatmaker and visual artist he has contributed production and art since the late 90’s for notables including The Beastie Boys, Madlib, A.G., Foreign Legion, Rasco, Peanut Butter Wolf and Phat Kat.
As a visual artist, his high point of work with the label was his design of the 12” vinyl cover for Lootpack member Madlib’s side project Quasimoto. The cover for “Microphone Mathematics” featured Design/Griego’s visual representation of Lord Quas as a sort of alien aardvark, which was adopted by the artist and has since become one of the most iconic and enduring
characters in the game today.
