The song in question is titled <em>&#8220;White Crown&#8221;<\/em> and it&#8217;s a visceral and cerebral hitting cut underpinned by thought-provoking lyrics and deft turntable cuts courtesy of\u00a0<strong>DJ Eclipse<\/strong>. In the same vein as <strong>Ras Kass<\/strong>\u2019s legendary <em>\u201cNature Of The Threat\u201d<\/em>, Bolstered by the ominous and cinematic soundscape made by <strong>DEAD PERRY<\/strong>, <strong>Casual<\/strong> drops a masterclass of historical references to the cradle of civilization, both literally and metaphorically. As he states:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe White crown represented Upper Egypt and the Red crown represented lower Egypt, both who were in constant struggle. I brought the symbology into hip-hop terms.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The visuals continue the theme with fast-cut scenes of Egyptian artifacts and performance shots of <strong>Casual<\/strong> as he casually drops historical gems for listeners to ponder on. This new single follows the potent chemistry the duo demonstrated last year with the release of <em>The Art Of Reanimation<\/em>\u00a0LP.\u00a0Released in CD\/CS and Digital via\u00a0<strong>Below System Records<\/strong>\u00a0(Trizz, Estee Nack\/Superior) and vinyl via\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tuffkongrecords.com\/products\/the-art-of-reanimation-lp\"><strong>Tuff Kong<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0the project featured a plethora of top-notch spitters including\u00a0<strong>Ghostface Killah, Killah Priest, Rockness Monsta, Phesto, Planet Asia, Tristate, ETO, Daniel Son, Celph Titled, Crimeapple<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>DJ TMB<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Stream \/ Purchase\u00a0<strong><em>The Art Of Reanimation<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/belowsystem.bandcamp.com\/album\/the-art-of-reanimation\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"178415\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/video-casual-x-dead-perry-feat-dj-eclipse-white-crown\/casual-3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Casual.jpg?fit=1200%2C1200&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1200,1200\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Casual\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Casual.jpg?fit=640%2C640&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-178415 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Casual.jpg?fit=640%2C540&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Casual.jpg?resize=540%2C540&amp;ssl=1 540w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Casual.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Casual.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Casual.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Casual.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ufeff &nbsp; From the Bay to the Nile!\u00a0The pairing of\u00a0Casual\u00a0x\u00a0DEAD PERRY has returned with a&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-178413","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-videos"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pG6fW-KpD","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178413","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/21"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=178413"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178413\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=178413"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=178413"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=178413"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
