Rakim, Kurupt & Masta Killa Release New Single GOIN DOWN

Rakim, Kurupt and Masta Killa have released GOIN DOWN, the second single from their upcoming collaborative album THE GODBODY. The track, which features West Coast artist Kokane alongside the trio, follows the project's debut single A DIFFERENT KIND, a Rakim solo, self-produced cut described as his first in fifteen years. THE GODBODY is set to unite East Coast and West Coast hip-hop voices on a single body of work, with Kurupt recording from California and Masta Killa and Rakim representing New York.

Hip-hop icons Rakim, Kurupt, and Masta Killa will release their landmark collaborative album, THE GODBODY, on 9.18.26.

After announcing the project with the first Rakim solo, self-produced track in fifteen years 'A Different Kind,' which trended on social media on two different occasions upon its release, the single offered fans an intimate look at the artistry of a man widely regarded as one of the genre's most influential voices.

Now, the trio has released the album's second single, 'Goin Down,' which predominantly features Rakim, Kurupt and Masta Killa and also West Coast stalwart Kokane. 'Goin Down' is now available at all DSPs.

THE GODBODY is more than an album, it's a landmark moment for Hip-Hop; but its also a mission that aligned three of hip-hop's most respected lyricists to deliver a body of work built upon mutual respect, legacy, uncompromising artistry and coastal unity.

Recorded across both coasts: Kurupt representing California and Masta Killa and Rakim representing New York, the project was built to showcase the diversity and versatility of the trio while embodying a vision first imagined by the late Tupac Shakur; to unite the greatest emcees from the East and West Coasts into a single, undeniable body of work. THE GODBODY delivers on that vision, aiming to give fans the feeling of 'One Nation.'

THE GODBODY is produced in its entirety by Rakim and Nick Wiz, and features collaborations with Snoop Dogg, Ghostface Killah, Raekwon, KRS-One, Daz Dillinger, Kool G Rap, Buckshot, Kokane, and Killa Sin among others.

The album can be pre-ordered on vinyl, CD, cassettes and merch bundles at https://dpgwutanggodbodylp.com/.
