The Underachievers made a song w/ Flatbush Zombies and freestyled in a new video (see them at the BV showcase)
by Andrew Sacher
The Underachievers and Flatbush Zombies are about to kick off a tour together supporting Joey Bada$$, which begins with all three artists in Austin for SXSW this week. And those two groups have just teamed up for a collaborative track, “No Religion.” The Underachievers and Flatbush Zombies are a good fit to work together — they both love charismatically rapping about drugs over blown out production. On “No Religion” they don’t talk too much about drugs, but what they do talk about is pretty great (“Stop trying to be Tupac, try and be better,” I mean someone had to say it) and the rest of what usually makes those groups great is there. Listen to the track below (via Stereogum).
The Underachievers also recently freestyled and talked about Flying Lotus for Pitchfork.tv’s “Selector.” You can watch that video below. While they’re in Austin for SXSW, The Underachievers play the BrooklynVegan Official Showcase on Friday (3/15) at Maggie Mae’s Rooftop at 11 PM.
