New So Shifty

The DJ Theory-produced ‘Quick Money’ (a remix of Amadou & Mariam’s ‘Sabali’, that you may recognize from Nas and Damian’s ‘Patience’, featuring NYC’s finest, Jahdan Blakkamoore) has been getting us emotional for the last month or so. And then….So Shifty come along and soca-fy it to the max. Could it get any better? Oh wait, yes it could, cos the download is free.

Head to their soundcloud for the rest of their new tunes.
