Homeboy Sandman "Kool Herc: Fertile Crescent OUT NOW" + "Dag, Philly Too"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

First of all, happy birth day to the originator himself, DJ Kool Herc. And what better way to pay tribute to the founder than by releasing a dope ass album in his honor on his born day. Homeboy Sandman did just that (with Herc's blessing) with his new 8-track release, Kool Herc: Fertile Crescent (entirely produced by El RTNC). Described as an "unapologetic homage to old school hip-hop," this one, just like all Boy Sand albums, is a must listen. Check the album cut, "Dag, Philly Too," and as is Boy Sand tradition a brand new track celebrating the album's release, the Alex 'Apex' Gale produced "Kool Herc Fertile Crescent OUT NOW" - Go get that.
