El Prez Announces New Album, ‘Labtrappincalifornia’ + Drops Two Singles

Guess who’s bizzack?!

Meka, along with the rest of us here at the DopeHouse have been waxing nostalgic about some of the “new west” rappers that had started popping off around the same time this very website — built by the former and Shake — was conceived. It even created inspiration for a new 2DBZ Mix aptly-titled The New West Throwback.

One of the artists included in the one-plus hour mix was none-other-than Inglewood’s own El Prez, who went off the grid for a bit, two years ago.

Just this morning, we received an email from the man himself, stating he’s got a new project in the works which will arrive much sooner than expected. The album, titled Labtrappincalifornia (a nod to The Pharcyde’s Labcabincalifornia) will be produced entirely by Coopatroop and will feature Koncept, C-Plus, Black Cobain and more.

With Labtrappincalifornia arriving on June 16th, El Prez prepares fans with “20 Karats On The Wrist” and “Highs + Lows,” which you can hear below, and pre-order here or on iTunes.
