Professor A.L.I. feat. Shabazz the Disciple - Basic Instructions (Video)

Basic Instructions feat. Shabazz the Disciple by Professor A.L.I. is the second major leak from the upcoming Emerald Manifesto LP which is slated for a 5/12/2012 release.

The song explores the intersection of three Abrahamic faiths in the personage of Jesus and from the vantage point of both history and the Holy Bible. The collaboration with the lyrically gifted, East Coast legend, Shabazz was a natural fit and the beat produced by MKlassy from Morocco.

The goal of a track like this is to explore the bridges between traditions that often seem at odds with each other when considering the history of violence from the Crusades to the modern day issues in the Middle East.

PEACE Professor A.L.I.
