Three tracks have already been recorded and the chemistry between the two artists is very natural. Buckshot described the work as “CONFLOSATION, even when KRS ONE is flowing he’s having a conversation with his audience. This collaboration with KRS-ONE is going to be an album full of Hip-Hop conversation, ranging from New World Order, to socially conscious topics such as unemployment, poverty, and politics.

What’s that, his 25th album? Well, it looks like the Teacha will be rapping way into his 60s. Between him and Chuck D, we’ll have plenty of grumpiness to go around in the next decade and beyond.
