Happy 4:20! J. Brookinz x Grey Granite present Gateway 2!
Happy 4:20! J. Brookinz reunites with fellow Heavy Gun co-founder Grey Granite for the highly anticipated sequel Gateway 2!:
J. Brookinz x Grey Granite present Gateway 2 by Heavy Gun 2011
On the follow up to his acclaimed album The Gateway Drug: THC, his highness J. Brookinz comes correct with a crew of 28 collaborators and the producer’s take on psy rock. Bringing his typical partner-in-crime Grey Granite into the mix this time around, the duo put together an ensemble cast composed of some of the dopest lyricists in Indianapolis. The project’s incredible collaborative feel came from a 48 hour studio session in which Brookinz and Grey recorded with 20+ musicians. The epic studio lock-in was facilitated by indie rock band The Kemps and the use of their practice space Helter Shelter. This is the perfect album to jam over the upcoming 4:20 holiday, and if you live in Indianapolis, come check out the release party on April 20th at Rock Lobster in Broad Ripple!
Ok ok, it’s a few days late, but what else do you expect from an album dedicated to getting high!

alpha.live + J. Brookinz - Six Shot EP
alpha.live + J. Brookinz - Six Shot by Heavy Gun 2011
Indy’s god emcee alpha.live links up with J. Brookinz, the Highest Man Alive, for Six Shot, a tribute to lyric and sample driven hip-hop:
The teaser video for Six Shot said it all: 1 emcee, 1 producer, 2 legends, 6 shots! After several years of friendly one-off collaborations, alpha.live and J. Brookinz link up to give hip-hop junkies a hot shot in the arm of impeccable beats with perfectly laced lyrics. The pair first collaborated on the now infamous OG version of The Bar featuring Grey Granite, then built upon that with the critically acclaimed “Obama 08” that was featured on blogs like Kevin Nottingham, and have recently collabbed on a track for Brookinz’s exalted The Gateway Drug. Six Shot picks up where their relationship left-off with Brookinz’s penchant for chipmunk soul and alpha’s love of thought provoking, creative lyrics. From the lead single “The Come Up” to the highly processed closing track “Blue Skies”, Six Shot proves to be dead on the mark all six rounds.
Every city has that one lyricist that everyone has to admit is a beast on the mic; in Indianapolis that artist is alpha.live. Gentleman Alphonse cut his teeth in freestyle circles in Indianapolis long before every dropping his now infamous FIXTape and was named one of Indy’s top freestyle emcees by Nuvo in 2009. Since then, alpha has dropped the well received Steal From The Rich w/ Dope Couture’s CMART, The Love Story, and Soul Cinema with producer Soul Cinematik. Currently alpha.live is working with Spitten Writtens to craft video adaptations of each track on Six Shot and Soul Cinematik to finish their next project Soul Cinema 1.5!
During the spring and summer of 2010, J. Brookinz reasserted why he is hands down the Highest Man Alive. 4/20/2010 found the producer (and sometimes rapper) releasing his most well received project to date. The Gateway Drug: THC was Mr. Brookinz’s love letter to the light of his life—marijuana. As a testament to how intertwined cannabis and hip-hop have become in American culture, the project was featured on blogs such as Ruby Hornet, Kick Kick Snare, Mostly Junk Food, Noise Porn, Check The Rhymes, and Tune Devil. Watch for J. Brookinz to follow up The Gateway Drug’s success with a sequel for this year’s holiday!
