Ka, Grief Pedigree

Straight out of the brownsville section of Brooklyn stands Veteran Emcee Ka and he is armed with vintage cuts with a modern flow that recalls the golden says of the 1990's while moving steadily ahead with Ka's main vision of survival and personal progression. These days a solo rap album is very much a family affair with guest appearances on nearly every track, but Roc Marciano is the only featured artist on the album proving that Ka's twenty plus years experience can control and handle every track with ease.


Grief Pedigree is a laid back, but rough traversal of Brownsville's gritty landscape. It's a great listen that recalls the dark and gritty days of New York in the 90's. Ka also directed and edited videos for every song, pushing his abilities and credits past a mere Emcee. The visuals are all very meticulously chosen and placed, it's clearly a labor of love. I doubt you will be able to cop Grief Pedigree and Ka's new release, The Night's Gambit in record stores. If you want a physical you can get it directly from Ka which you should be doing for all music you respect. Peace!
