Hip-Hop quintet
Jurassic 5 is hitting the road for a nationwide wide tour in support of its
forthcoming album, Feedback.
The release, which
follows the group’s previous efforts, Power by Numbers and Quality
Control, will allow fans to hear growth from the Los
Angeles-based group.
"It’s a step
up for us because we have been basically known as an underground group. We’ve
been known as a backpacker group," said Soup.
"This album still has elements of that because that’s who we are, but at
the same time we are also trying to step into another realm."
Producers on the
album include Nu-Mark ("Future Sound," "Red Hot," and "Where
We At"), Scott Storch ("Brown Girl"), Salaam Remi ("Radio"
and
"Get It Together"), Exile and Bean One.
Featured guests
consist of Mos Def, who appears on the track, "Where We At" and the
Dave Matthews Band, who drop by for the first single, "Work It Out."
The Jurassic 5
tour is slated to kick off before the album’s July 25 release date.
The outing will
land in close to three dozen cities, including stops in Austin, Texas, Washington,
D.C., Charlotte, Las Vegas and Los Angeles.
