We waited for it a long time and finally it is here: the project of Evidence and The Alchemist called Step Brothers is official and their new album “Lord Steppington” is coming out on the 21st January 2014. And what a great coincidence: it is the same date, when they are coming to Prague to the LMB! Anticipation for the collaborative project between Dilated Peoples emcee Evidence and Shady Records producer The Alchemist has been building since they have announced they would be joining forces as Step Brothers in 2009. With time passing, both artists have been preparing their joint album while balancing other projects separately. Given that they are friends since childhood, the two have worked together regularly in the past. Their collective catalog includes songs like “The Far Left,” “The Red Carpet” and Dilated Peoples’ “Worst Comes to Worst.” But this is the first album the two will conceive together entirely.
Evidence admitted that he and Alchemist didn’t plan on making an album, saying: “We just hung out and recorded and did wild sh-t and looked at the laptop one day and said, ‘Oh, there’s 20 songs.’ We bottled it up and made it interesting and that’s what you get.” (Jason Newman, fuse.tv)
We are very much looking forward to finally welcome the Step Brothers to Prague, after we tried to bring them here so many years. We are sure: that will be a night to remember!
