Adelaide producer & DJ Inkswel introduces his new project ‘The Snaglepuss’ with the debut single ‘Let It Grow’ featuring legendary New York MC Talib Kweli. A satisfying chunk of classic yet contemporary hiphop featuring slippery p-funk bass and whistling g-funk leads, the track also features a spoken word by Bronx artist Baba Israel and vocal hooks by Inkswel’s wife and musical partner Erin Buku. Given Inkswel’s hiphop background, the collaboration with Talib is a crowning moment in his 20 year career as a beatmaker and producer. Blackstar and Reflection Eternal were formative inspirations for a generation of heads and Inkswel was no exception. Inkswel and Erin put the demo together with bassist Stephen Lane and sent it to Talib who sent back a fire verse which the team built the rest of the production around. The original track is also packaged with a boom bap leaning remix from Adelaide producer FUNKWIG.
