“Those dudes are incredible,” he continued. “When you  hear this project, you’re going to be satisfied as an M.O.P. fan and a Snowgoons  fan. I think you’re going to flip your wig,” he continued. “They’ve got  everything… It’s amazing to me because most of the time, producers have a  signature sound. These guys already sent me like 50 tracks. They sent me 50  tracks and they’re blazing through and coming from different  angles.”

M.O.P. and Snowgoons collaborative album is scheduled for  release November 22, 2011 on Babygrande Records.
