EDO.G’s appearance alongside the Large Professor was one of the many surprise guest appearances at the Rock The Bells Festival in Queens.

We caught up with the Boston legend who confirmed what we have all been hoping for: that a new album is in fact on the way very soon.

“The new album is called We Do Good,” he says, “And if you read through the lines, it spells ‘EDO. G.’ It's just another boom bap album. The last album I put out was 2021 with my man Insight. It was a collaborative album. And you know, the new album, I got a bunch of my Hip-Hop friends on there. I got a whole bunch, I got an album with the Bulldogs as well. Cause a few years ago was our 30th. We recorded an album but COVID came. All kinds of craziness. So you know, a bunch of projects, whole bunch of albums coming out.”

Additionally, he notes that the success of the RTB festival is an indication of the growing demand for timeless Hip-Hop.

“I think Hip-Hop is still progressing, and the age group that I'm in, I'm 51, and you know, there are people that are my age that still love the classics,” he says. “So they still want to go out to a concert and hear those familiar songs and relive some of that youth. So I think as we are still growing, Hip-Hop is only 50 years old, roughly my age, you know what I mean? So it's like the people are still growing with it.”
