You could know this guy from his features on Kev Brown's albums. Not surprisingly you can find a lot of Kev Brown beats on this release too. There is a 2nd CD on this which has all the instrumentals, for those who rather listen to beats only. Enjoy!

This album is incredible... Don't forget to support the artists if you like it!!!!

"There’s one rule in hip hop music that has transcended all of the phases in its four decade history: it doesn’t matter what you do, but how you do it that really counts. This fact is no secret to Kev Brown (producer for Busta Rhymes, De La Soul, etc) who eschews the obscure in favor of certified soul classics as sample fodder for this project with emcee Kaimbr, The Alexander Green Project.

Taking the familiar and reappropriating it into your own formula is no straightforward task but the soul-infused production on display with this project proves that in the right hands even the most recognizable of sources can be built into a fresh and engaging aesthetic."

"Kev Brown’s “Classic Joints” is compilation of selections, fan favorites and unreleased music from the Landover, Maryland Native's VERY NOTABLE body of work. 

If you know Kev, you know that he's an extremely talented and humble producer/rapper, as well as a pretty generous dude. He's sharing with us a selection of songs that he has made in the past 10 years including tracks with Busta Rhymes, Grap Luva as well as his Low Budget Crew.

If you like what you hear, look out more of Kev Brown's work including The Alexander Green Project (Redefinition Records/Real Late Music) which features Kaimbr on the mic and was produced entirely by Kev Brown." - Redefinition Records

On a related random shameless self-promotion note, this reminds me of Kev Brown's track on 'The Find Rewind' physical tape ("Another classic joint" sample). Who still owns/plays that tape? Better follow The Find Mag on Twitter or Facebook, because a sequel is on its way... 7" vinyl record! Collab with a well-respected rapper from the USA and a producer from France who the majority of MS loves...
