illmatic 30 years later
what ever era I'm in mixtape is a follow up to my HipHop 50 mixtape its almost a continuation of what we started with hiphop 50 just raw rapping over classic hiphop instrumentals
I decided to pay tribute to the art form that I fell in love with more than 2 decades ago this year 2023 has been recognized as the 50th year of HipHop music/culture although my contribution hasn't been recognized by the masses (worldwide) those who are in the know are aware of my dedication so my newest offering to HIPHOP is this HipHop 50

There has been multiple variations of this project that have never been released I recorded so many songs that were unfortunately left on the cutting room floor for one reason or another
On this project I address a few people and things that today don't deserve my attention and in hindsight didn't deserve it then but the ego was egoing LOL
Shout out to the producer OB (obstacle beats) who decided he no longer wanted to release the project which is partially why I decided to drop it this way DIRECTLY to my fans and not to the masses to honor his wishes I decided to make this just a personal experience for those who support me
Shout out to all the features those who are actually on this version of the project and those who were on the songs that were left over I appreciate you all I recorded this project in MD VA and PA and a lot of those songs were lost or just didn't fit this version
Faith Over Religion Truth Under Nothing Ever is what PROJECT FORTUNE REPRESENTS
Lastly the cover art created by my brother Abayomi Snowden is extremely meaningful to me he Hand Painted a picture of these vintage Adidas from the late 80s early 90s that belonged to my uncle FORTUNE who passed away in the early 90s these shoes were then passed down to me and I wear them whenever I record music this is where symbolism and nostalgia meet and become one
Those who choose to support I hope enjoy again this will NEVER be released on DSP's
In closing NIPSEY HUSSLE (rip) introduced an idea called PTP PROUD TO PAY there is $40 donation required for this ALBUM there is also an exclusive unreleased video that you will receive THANK YOU in advance WE GON JUS KEEP ON WORKING
