Sean Price & Lil Fame Take “Center Stage” On A New Release From P (Audio)

It has been more than four years since the incomparable Sean Price, but thankfully, his name continues to ring bells through new music reaching the fans. Right in time for the holidays, Ruckdown/Duck Down Music will release Price Of Fame, a collaborative album from P and fellow Brownsville MC/producer Lil Fame of M.O.P. on December 20, and is available for pre-order. Comprised of all unreleased verses from P!, Price Of Fame is entirely produced and arranged by Lil Fame—who has also used his “Fizzy Womack” alias on credits behind the boards. Although known for menacing Mash Out Posse songs over the last quarter-century, Fame has amassed a respected discography making songs for Wu-Tang Clan, AZ, Cormega, and many others. Price Of Fame first single, “Center Stage,” is just one of 11 tracks that shows precisely why the icon will forever be known as “a bar-barian.” The LP was something Sean was talking about just before his 2015 passing. Tony Touch Power Cypher Featuring A.G., Black Thought, M1, Lil Fame, Sean Price & Illa Ghee (Video) “Me and Sean P always spoke about recording an album together,” Lil Fame shared with Complex. “We grew up in the same [Brownsville, Brooklyn] neighborhood and came up in the game about the same time. So when we finally got in the studio, the sh*t was epic. Y’all know P! is a beast with them bars.” The verse features Sean’s trademark style of clever compound rhyme schemes. Fame offers a second verse, illustrating how things have not changed. Price finishes the track out with some gritty, self-deprecating rhymes. In 2000, M.O.P. Went Hunting For CD Bootleggers To Mash Out (Video) The album features guest appearances from Boot Camp Clik brethren Smif-N-Wessun and Rockness Monsta as well as Conway The Machine, Illa Ghee, and Rim.

The Source Magazine Celebrates Sean Price(R.I.P.) On His 47th Birthday!

On this date in 1972, Sean Price, the honorary Boot Camp general, was born in Brooklyn, New York and went on to become one of NYC’s most prolific MCs to date.

Tragically, Price, who is known affectionately to his fans as “Ruck” of Heltah Skeltah, died in his sleep on August 8, 2015 at the age of 43. Even though he is no longer here in the physical form, Ruck continues to live on through his family and his music, with another posthumous album, Imperius Rex courtesy of the Boot Camp Clik and the Duck Down family.

During the 2000s, Price made a name for himself as a heavyweight in the underground Hip Hop community. His first solo album, Monkey Barz, was released in 2005 and received critical acclaim, peaking at #70 on the Billboard Hip Hop chart. To this day, the album is held in ridiculously high esteem among commercial and independent artists and after that he went on to release two more albums, Jesus Price Supastar and Mic Tyson, both of which made debuts on the Billboard 200 chart.

Sean Price passed away in his sleep on August 8, 2015 and the details surrounding the death are still unknown.

In honor of his born day, here are a couple of his most popular videos to help educate those who aren’t aware of his greatness.
