Defcee & knowsthetime Join Forces for Summer Courses EP Feat. Zilla Rocca, CRASHprez, Benjamin Earl Turner & More (self-released)



Since we first heard about Adam "Defcee" Levin on "Angel Dust (Leak Brothers 2)" from Career Crooks AKA Zilla Rocca & Small Professor's 2017 URBNET debut, Good Luck with That, the Chicago-based emcee has released two phenomenal projects: A Mixtape As God Intended, Vol. 1 on Machine Wash Music and SUNDAY, NO.1 EP as Hip-Hop super-group defprez with CRASHprez & knowsthetime. Now, Defcee has returned with his second proper release of 2019, Summer Courses EP fully recorded, produced, mixed, and mastered by defprez's knowsthetime, who, also, designed the EP's cover art. Summer Courses consists of five separate "courses," each sporadically sub-titled "Summer... '07-18," which feature a variety of guest emcees including RTystic, Zilla Rocca, CRASHprez, greenSLLIME, Benjamin Earl Turner, Speedy Calhoun (TeamSkighWalkers,) and FrshWaters. Much like most of Defcee's recent work, Summer Courses EP seamlessly flows from track-to-track and possesses an underlying quality reminiscent of an old school, hand-dubbed mixtape; while some truly great guests are featured within, I really can't say any one emcee steals the shine from Defcee and his flawless rhymes, as well as knowsthetime's airy, simplistic production work, are the cream that rises to the top here. Defcee & knowsthetime's Summer Courses EP is currently available on Bandcamp for just $3 USD Or More, as well as your preferred digital streaming service. Shout-out to knowsthetime for this Hella dope orange EP cover!
