This is a little holiday album preview from Felt that Rhymesayers dropped on their YouTube channel last night. They’re apparently trying to get you to pick up a copy of Felt’s new album “FELT 3: A Tribute to Rosie Perez.”
I’m excited about the upcoming Felt shit, mainly because of the production switch. While the group maintains emcees Slug and Murs, Felt now features Aesop Rock on the beats. As an introduction, Rhymesayers is offering Protagonists for FREE download. Click below to listen to Felt 3′s Protagonists:

There’s a lot I can say about Atmosphere’s “When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold.” But the first thing that comes to mind is that this album exactly what I hoped to get from Slug and Ant this time around.
