For the original “Crossfire,” it was just Stephen on the track. For part two, he teamed up with Talib Kweli and KillaGraham. Now, for the third and final part of the series, he’s called on some of the finest artists coming out of Chicago: Saba, Ravyn Lenae, The O’My’s and J.P. Floyd of Blended Babies.
“In the past I’ve almost always done everything from producing to writing to mixing, but this time I let some other incredible artists take the wheel,” Stephen says. “I gained a lot of respect for the Chicago creative community, and a blossoming desire for more collaboration. It feels great to give back to an organization like Young Chicago Authors — a platform for young poets and hip-hop artists.”
15% of the song proceeds are going to after-school creative program, Young Chicago Authors.
