Smooth 7 Ghetto Life (1995)

"Ghetto Life" originally was slated to be released by Motown sublabel Mad Sounds Recordings in 1995. The album was shelved and finally released as a very limited edition CD by II Tight in 2008 and for the first time on vinyl by Armabillion in 2020. SWE felt it was time to pay hommage again to I Smooth 7 and "Ghetto Life" and went to work collaborating with I Smooth 7, Abstract Rude, DJ Battlecat, Fat Jack and DJ Slip to give the CD headz a proper reissue. We are proud to present you with revised artwork building around the image that was originally intended as the cover on the 1995 release. SWE also went all out with extensive credits and features on all tracks. Legendary Dutch graff artist Rockin Roger aka Azhq provided us with a timeless front cover. In-house graphic artist Pascal Ross-Marquette went to work and finished it off proper. Of course we can't forget SWE general Jee Van Cleef, who thoroughly remastered the project to top it off. Last but not least a major shoutout to my man Fischio of Armabillion for the hook-up! Then there's even more big news... SWE is collaborating with Edwin Osorno Tamayo of Osta Urban Shoes to bring you exclusive sneakers. We will have shoes with the original artwork and the SWE artwork with both being available in high and low top models. Only 25 pair total of all models combined will be manufactured, all models come with an exclusive bag and will be handnumbered on the bag! First order will get #1/25 and so on... Limited to only 250 copies on CD and shipping now!
