8 Ball & MJG new album Pure American Pimpin coming July 2006 and hot new single ''For an Outfit''
MEMPHIS, TN (MemphisRap.com) March 28, 2006 - The Memphis rap duo Eightball & MJG, is back in the studio preparing to return on the scene with their follow-up album to the Gold selling "Living Legends". The title of the upcoming new album, which is scheduled for release July 18, 2006, is 'Pure American Pimpin" with the first single off the new album being "For An Outfit" (available at
www.8ballandmjg.com and music.downloads.memphisrap.com). The album features the likes of Big Boi (Outkast), T.I., Juvenile, Jazze Phae, Lil Jon, and more.
Although many know the group only by their "Living Legends" album release, the Orange Mound Memphis, Tennessee veterans actually got their claim to fame from the classic 1993 debut release, "Comin Out Hard" which according to a recent interview with Concrete Magazine, the group plans to return to that original flava or as Eightball put it, "We call this album Pure American Pimpin’ because it’s like back to basics for us".
When asked do they think overexposure will play out the whole M Town “get crunk” and “get buck” style and sound because it's exploding all around the world, the group had this to say:
MJG: It might kill the era, but that’s really just an era created by hype anyway. We were doing this type of music before they were calling it the “get crunk era.” We really don’t rely on what they call the era. We are just trying to make good music and basically, stick to the format. When we look at material, we don’t sit down and try to make it fit with the “get crunk era.” It’s not really something that we worry about. If cats are really crafting their stuff for that, they are the ones that will be worse off...
8 Ball: ... They’re the ones that are going to be worried. It’s those cats that are bragging because they’ve been rapping for two years and their career might not last more than two years. That’s why some of the cats that are gimmick rappers from the South need to be worried. But 8 Ball and MJG [don’t have to be worried]. Our first album came out in 1993. Three-6 Mafia’s first album came out in 1995. In 2005 we have the number two single in the nation, right now. This is ten, almost fifteen years later, so we’re not worried. We are going to do us. We’ve got a fan base of a million people that love what we do and as long as we keep it true to them, they’re going to keep it true to us.
