Listen to “Vice Grip,” the first posthumous release from Gift Of Gab
Following his tragic death back in June at the age of 50, a statement announcing the passing of Gift of Gab, one half of the duo Blackalicious, also promised the rapper had enough unreleased music stashed away for "[his] lyrical genius [to] be heard for years to come." Now, the lead single "Vice Grip" has been released, set to appear on the rapper's forthcoming album, Finding Inspiration Somehow. Featuring production by Nick Andre, the song is a full-force example of Gift of Gab's lyrical prowess as he switches between complex rhyme schemes over the pounding, off-kilter beat.
