Fashion - "New York Talk"

Not to be confused with the Beatnut aka Al' Tariq, Freeport's Fashion struts onto the scene accompanied by Westworld drone hosts in Yankees fitted caps. A hip-house thumper produced by none other than Studdah Man, also of Port Knox, rumbles the catwalk. Yes, that's the Studdah Man, the Bomb Squad’s munitions crew’s jack of all trades whose credits include turntables on Gary G-Wiz's remix to Rakim's "Heat It Up" as well as co-production across Public Enemy's Muse Sick-N-Hour Mess Age and on Hyenas of the Desert's "Other Side of Midnight" (most recently featured on LIRR Halloween mix, The Shit Mobile). So, what's the science behind the pairing? "I selected the song 'New York Talk' [produced by Studdah Man] because we live in a chaotic time, and people need a daily escape from their mundane lives," Fashion says. "His sound resonated with my personality—fun, vibrant, with a touch of grungy New York. That’s what my sound aims to bring—colour to the function with a sense of style."
