With over two decades in the game, Sadat X has seen and done it all—but that’s not stopping him from speaking his mind.

On July 15th, the Brand Nubian emcee will release his forthcoming concept album, Aqua. And today, he’s linked up with Pete Rock for the project’s lead single, “Freeze.”

“The theme of this album[which is] “water” is just actual facts,” Sadat X shared with AFH. “I’m talking about daily things that happen to the majority of the people, the masses. The majority of the people… they don’t live that life…. It’s good music, but a lot of people don’t get that life. This is for more of people that maybe have a regular job and raising kids and letting them know ‘Man, it’s nothing wrong with that,’… plus you know, just giving out good music.”
