It’s a Style Sport stays true to Shabazz Palaces' form in its daring show of experimental hip-hop and free-form poetry, while revealing a more reflective and upfront side of the Seattle musician. It’s a Style Sport finds Butler compiling what he’s learned from his storied career into a playful, shimmering portal, again proving himself an artist of chameleonic ambition, fueled by curiosity, courage, and a limitless imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe album is the product of a collaborative, communal effort with many of Butler’s touring band members: Evan Flory-Barnes on upright and electric bass; Thaddeus Turner on guitar, keyboards, and vocals; Kassa Overall on drums; Gerald Turner on bass and vocals; Marquetta Miller on vocals; and Carlos Overall on saxophone. Butler’s longtime friend and collaborator Erik Blood provided instrumentation, production, and mixing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn It’s a Style Sport, a visage of Butler’s past lives as a rapper and performer is flung up against his contemporary persona, taunting and illuminating. At its core, It’s a Style Sport is an ode to the rap game of years past, when the playfully competitive ambition drove the genre to always outdo, outrun, and out-finesse your peers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklisting:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.Ahh World (I Won The Alpha Bet)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2.Field Notes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3.Show Me Missouri In Mink\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4.Jheri Curl Jump\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5.Deadstock Dude\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6.Tongue In Chic\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7.Heliocentric Immortality Manifesto H.I.M.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8.Olivia According To Touch\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9.Money Can't Save Your Mind\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10.From One Future To Another\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThank you for looking at our listing, below are a few points to consider before making a purchase:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- All records we sell are Brand New - pre-orders will normally come sealed but if you are purchasing in stock items, please note the copy may have been unsealed for display in the shop.
