In 2019, producer Statik Selektah and rapper Bun B created and recorded the album “Trillstatik” from scratch over a 12 hour live stream from a Brooklyn music studio. The album featured guest appearances from Method Man, Westside Gunn, Fat Joe, Talib Kweli, Paul Wall, among others, and was released just 3 days after it was recorded.
Today Bun & Statik are back in a studio in NYC to record the follow-up “Trillstatik 2”. The lineup of featured artists is still kept secret, but the live-stream is promised to include a whole lot of exciting surprises. This time they have also teamed up with sampling service Tracklib, from which they will use samples of original music for some of the songs.
“Trillstatik is a brave and groundbreaking musical experiment that we just had to be a part of. Sampling songs from Tracklib’s library also allows them to instantly clear the samples, which is of course ideal when releasing the album so quickly after recording it”,
says Tracklib founder Pär Almqvist.
The creation of the album will be live streamed today December 7th, starting at 2pm EST on Statik Selektah’s Twitch Channel: https://www.twitch.tv/statikselekt
The album is scheduled for release this Friday, Dec 9th 2022.
