BP Infinite’s new producer compilation, Kill or Be Killed, is the hip-hop equivalent of a roundhouse kick to the face from both the beatsmith and his incredible cast of collaborators. And in case that comparison sounds hyperbolic, here’s what the producer said about his mindset when he started crafting the album’s beats:
“I wanted to make an album that sounds like the movie Bloodsport with a tournament of diverse, unique talent.”
-BP INFINITE
To meet his goal, BP worked on this project for more than 18 months as he painstakingly sorted through existing beats and created new instrumentals for the project. He then fleshed out the instrumentals that he thought specifically matched the artists he wanted to work with. This meant ensuring that the likes of Elzhi, Redman, Elucid, Skyzoo, and many others had the brawl-inducing beats they needed.
To kick things off, BP Infinite serves up a menacing backdrop on “Kill or Be Killed,” the producer’s brand-new banger featuring RJ Payne and Skyzoo. The two emcees embrace the track’s mantra with murderous raps aimed at their opponents’ jugulars, especially as they shift from one verse to the next and compare the location of their enemies’ leftover blood.
“Kill or Be Killed” is available now through all major DSPs, with the full length compilation of the same title available now for digital pre-order through Common Virtue Records. Stay tuned for the vinyl pre-order announcement!
