Weekend Money Details
Hip Hop / Lifestyle Brand www.facebook.com/weekendmoney "New York City is everything. We wouldn't have made this project if we didn't live here. There are so many people, personalities, stories, sounds, etcetera everywhere you turn," explains Weekend Money lyricist Ne$$ of the theme behind their new EP Naked City, due out early fall. "The city is the muse for this project. Weekend Money, compromised of aforementioned NYC/Philly MC Ne$$ (member of Dead Prez affiliated group A-Alikes) and Brooklyn by way of Iraq producer/vocalist Baghdaddy, aren't the first to cite the city of New York as a major influence on their work. New York has it's fair share of acts in a flourishing hip hop scene, but the duo are a perfect example of New York's multicultural melting pot and their music is no different. Weekend Money's debut EP, Naked City, is a contagious blend of underground hip hop, ‘hood street swagger and spaced out beats that play like a diary of a NYC hustler touching on his experiences and thoughts and revealing both the glamour and grime of the city. "Naked City speaks to what we were going through while recording the EP. It's about New York and our perceptions of it. If you line the tracks up by date of creation, they tell the story of our past year and the trials we went through - the hope, the pain, everything," says Baghdaddy.
