A member of Heltah Skeltah, The Boot Camp Clik, The Fab 5 and Random Axe, Sean P was one of the most respected artists in Hip-Hop, who helped shape culture and music in subtle but dynamic ways with his witty wordplay and recognizable, rugged delivery.
“Sean just liked to rap," Duck Down Records CEO Dru Ha said of the rapper in an interview with Fader. "Before he finished a song, he would go and do another verse. He didn’t care much about the hooks, so there were tons of verses to go through and lots to figure out. It was like putting a puzzle together. He left drives of music in the different studios that he worked out of. With me personally, Sean wouldn’t bring us into the recording process until he had what he thought was the skeleton of an album."
The celebration will take place on Aug. 9 at SOB's in NYC.
