MC Serch x Apathy "Millions of Zeros" [EP]

A name that carries history: MC Serch, one half of 3rd Bass, whose "The Cactus Album" sits firmly in the Golden Era New York canon – and the man who stood behind Nas' "Illmatic" as an executive. He's been solo-silent since the 90s, which makes this six-track EP with Apathy a genuine sign of life. The pairing makes sense: Apathy has long been one of the underground's most dependable dual threats – MC and producer with a strict boom bap discipline – and exactly the kind of partner who builds a veteran a working framework instead of putting him in a museum. Six tracks, clearly divided roles, no nostalgia circus.
