It’s got an annoying radio-announcement loop throughout the track, but this is producer 9th Wonder’s new single, “Crooklyn Dodgers Part 3,” taken from his upcoming Dream Merchant Vol. 2 album (thanks to Nah Right for the heads-up). Featuring guest-turns from Mos Def, Memphis Bleek and the great Jean Grae, “Part 3″ marks the third time an ad-hoc supergoup has taken the Crooklyn Dodgers handle; if you don’t know the full history–and we’re not pretending to be experts–check out the summary at Prefix.
Anyway, this has been getting much love on the hip-hop blogs for the last few days. But will the kids go for a relatively straightforward, gimmick-free track that doesn’t feature a tacked-on vocal hook?
