Have a listen to the new single "My Negus" by Detroit rapper, ZotheJerk featuring legendary Random Axe frontman Guilty Simpson
 
This record is the second one to be taken from Zo's new album "Black Beach" produced entirely by Frost Gamble, a prolific beatmaker originally from NY State but now based in Winnipeg, and follows "Risk vs Reward" featuring Sadat X. 

Set to be released on May 26th, the album also features KXNG Crooked, Boldy James, Young Bleed and Tone Chop.  Politically charged, the themes are Zo's perspective on today's "Black America", an MC in receipt of a "Humanitarian of the Year" award for mentoring work in the community.  The quality is not lost on internationally renowned print publication MOJO Magazine who will feature "Black Beach" in their June issue.
