Plankton Records artists NINE BEATS COLLECTIVE drops a needle into the new year with the first and only lyric video ever created of their beat poem track “9/8”.

Quoting their press release: A defiant call for a new rhythm of life in our days, 9/8 features the spitz of Eric Leroy Wilson, word-drips by Steve Bassett/ Eric Leroy Wilson, beats by Tony Bean, and absolute fire strings solos by mercurial guitar maestro, Mr Caleb Quaye. Written as the world began to shift and change in 2016, these beatitudes beats still hit home right now: ancient wisdom that just might contain the keys to our liberation.
