Longtime staple of the DopeHouse, Meyhem Lauren, has linked with Griselda’s in-house beatsmith Daringer for the collaborative project Black Vladimir.
“I went to Buffalo to kick it with Griselda. It was a Halloween show and Westside Gunn brought out me and Prodigy (Mobb Deep) as special guests,” Meyhem says about the union. “Afterward, I was in Buffalo for a few days with Daringer, Conway and Westside Gunn making some music. Wes saw the chemistry I had with Daringer and suggested we should do an album together.
“The first three songs we made in Daringer’s house,” he continues. “All of Griselda was there and it bore witness to the process, which is why you hear them doing ad-libs on songs their not even on. It was natural, fun, easy and it just flowed.”
A 15-track drop, the project is led by the singles “Trigger Point Therapy” and “Red Pesto.” The likes of Conway The Machine, Westside Gunn, Flee Lord, Elcamino, Action Bronson, and Hologram are also featured throughout.
