milo & Safari Al Return with Proper Follow-up to REDWALL's 2014 (Boyle) and Piles EP - "AGONY (for Mark) (II)" [Ruby Yacht Makers Guild]



"we wrote it after our homie died. al made a beat tape wit' every beat named after mark. i came to his house and wrote to the first one he played. it sat on a hard drive 'til now," @yomilo AKA milo AKA scallops hotel AKA Rory Ferreira wrote in response to a Tweet inquiring about REDWALL's "AGONY." As milo referenced within his Tweeted statement, the track's actually, titled "AGONY (for Mark) (II)" and is credited to "REDWALL," which consists of milo and Alexander Kollman of The Dilla Gents AKA Safari Al AKA s.al. milo die-hards will know, Safari Al, actually, appeared on "Super Happy Sunshine Fun Club" from milo's first mixtape, I wish my brother Rob was here, released on Hellfyre Club in 2011. "AGONY" is, of course, the second release from REDWALL following their 2014 single-track EP, (Boyle) and Piles, which featured contributions from Ruby Yacht associates and frequent collaborators Open Mike Eagle and DRIVER AKA Busdriver. It's currently unclear if and when REDWALL's second long-shelved, Safari Al-produced "beat tape" in tribute to Mark, but if Indie-Rap Blog speculation is to be believed, "AGONY"'s accompanying project will likely, be released sooner than later. REDWALL's "AGONY (for Mark) (II)" is currently available to stream on emmanuel fade's Soundcloud page, which seems to be of or relating to s.al and rbyt AKA Ruby Yacht Makers Guild. milo's latest album as alter-ego scallops hotel, sovereign nose of (y​)​our arrogant face, is currently available for streaming and FREE download from his personal Bandcamp page.
