The Coldest Profession

Two titans of hip-hop finally join forces. On "The Coldest Profession", the legendary DJ Premier and master lyricist Roc Marciano craft a cinematic record that feels both timeless and urgently fresh. Premier’s unmistakable production — razor-sharp drums, chopped samples, and gritty basslines — sets the perfect backdrop for Roc’s cold-blooded storytelling and intricate wordplay.

This long-awaited collaboration captures the raw essence of two artists at the height of their craft, blending Premier’s classic boom-bap foundations with Roc Marciano’s modern mafioso poetics.

"The Coldest Profession" is available to pre-order on limited edition vinyl in 3 different colorways, all limited to 500 copies each worldwide, as well as classic black vinyl.
