Legendary producer DJ Premier and Detroit rapper Royce Da 5’9” returned this month with the release of ‘PRhyme 2,’ their second album under their duo moniker PRhyme. It’s the group’s first new material to surface since their self-titled debut in 2014, which received critical acclaim.

‘PRhyme 2’ was created around samples from producer AntMan Wonder’s catalog, and includes numerous features from artists like 2 Chainz, and CeeLo Green. One standout track that puts the longtime friends front and center is “Rock It.”

For the track, Premiere samples A Tribe Called Quest’s 1992 hit “Scenario.” It also interpolates Tribe’s song “Can I Kick It?” and JAY-Zs “Heart of the City (Ain’t No Love).” In an interview with Genius, Premiere explains that everything he creates is based on experimentation and that they approached “Rock It” with a live performance mentality.

Royce added that he wanted to pay homage and respect to old hip-hop tracks in the lyrics, something he says that modern rappers are afraid to do.
