PremRock, Willie Green - Through Lines
All proper narratives have an arc. Sometimes the protagonist doesn’t end where we thought they might but more often than not they get where they deserve to be. Throughout every arc there are through lines that emerge and are engrained in the fabric of the story. Sometimes we fall short for the same reasons and cycles remain unbroken. The devil you know, you know? The art of looking close but trying not to fixate.
This project pairs the old friends and long time Backwoodz stalwarts in the same organic one on one setting they settled into since 09’. A lot has changed but the chemistry remains. Though the only true PremRock & Willie Green album is the self titled LP from 2011 the two have been intrinsically linked throughout the past 15 years whether through the engineering of Prem’s endeavors or friendship in general.
A swift but momentous and textured meditation on love, loss, addiction cycles, remorse and acceptance, “Through Lines” is evergreen seasonal blues with a glimpse of that first city day of spring and yes the beats knock. The project features only ShrapKnel’s Curly Castro and Chicago’s finest DefCee.
Acting as a fine feather in the boys’ collective fitted and a brief taste of something much larger in scale Prem has in store in 25’ executive produced by Green this stealth September slice is a must add to label’s faithful.
All tracks produced, recorded, mixed & mastered by Willie Green at The GreenHouse
