ALI SHAHEED MUHAMMED (of A Tribe Called Quest) & ADRIAN YOUNGE began their work together in 2013 on the critically acclaimed Souls of Mischief album There Is Only Now and their partnership cemented on their score work for Marvel’s Luke Cage. Today, they are proud to announce the forthcoming release of their carefully constructed and masterful The Midnight Hour. It is the duo’s long awaited debut album and it showcases their songwriting ability like never before. The Midnight Hour is black excellence: an ode to the cultural sophistication that the Harlem Renaissance established for its people. Experience it in full color as the duo premieres the beginning of something truly beautiful.  All around taste-maker and founding member of Soul Summit and Impala Sound, DAVE MATA, takes the reigns behind the decks and spins hard-hittin' 45s all night long.
