BLVD. And Shaquille O’Neal Collaborate On Fusion Of Hip-Hop + Dubstep
After launching the label last month with “Miami” with Fatman Scoop, BLVD. returns to Purple Fly with another all-star collaboration. This time the US-based producer teamed up with Shaquille O’Neal, aka DJ Diesel, for the new single “Posterize.“ Listeners, be warned – with its heavy-hitting synths, distorted vocals, and bone-shaking basslines, this track is hardly for the faint of heart. It’s the ultimate hype song for the gym or your next headbanging session, combining BLVD.’s raw trap/dubstep style with Shaq’s penchant for hard, bass-driven beats. The single marks O’Neal’s debut on Purple Fly, the label that supports collaborations of all forms of art, connecting music and visuals for an immersive experience that spans the sonic realms of trance to trap.
