Watch Rapper Big Pooh & Apollo Brown In A New Clip For “Augmentation”
It’s been a while since we’ve heard such an intelligently smooth bit of modern hip-hop. Rapper Big Pooh and producer extraordinaire Apollo Brown have linked for the thumping new cut “Augmentation,” an early single off of Pooh’s upcoming (and aptly-titled) Words Paint Pictures LP. “Augmentation” packs one of the classic piano-and-soul-vocals sample flips that Brown has made his calling card, and Pooh good hard in the mile-wide cut.
