The first single from Epic & Deadly Stare’s upcoming collab album, A library called Calder, is out now! Epic explores his return to hip hop after his nearly 15 years absence while Deadly Stare provides a crunch background.
“So Much Class” is the first single from Epic & Deadly Stare’s album A library called Calder. What happens to old legends when time pulls them away from the game? After more than a decade, Epic returned to a local freestyle night in Edmonton, AB to find an alien landscape. Unlike the warm welcome he had found in the past, the new denizens of the cipher were on a whole new tip. Unshaken by their apparent hostility, Epic did what he has always done and cut through the noise with dope raps and so much class. Featuring gut-rattling production from Deadly Stare (Triune Gods, Endemik Music), Epic is back with a sharp reminder that legends never die.
Written and performed by Epic Produced by Deadly Stare
