Willie Green Doc Savage

“Doc Savage” is the new album from Brooklyn producer Willie Green. Inspired by the retrofuturistic aesthetic of its 1930’s pulp fiction namesake, “Doc Savage” is a hip-hop epic. A classically-trained musician with a resume full of indie-rap bonafides, Green built this album from the ground up, seamlessly melding live instruments into his head-nod aesthetic. He also handled all the sonics from production to mixing and mastering, making this a true labor-of-love. “I wanted to challenge the artists as well as myself, these aren’t some regular old beats. I wanted to take a lot of musical chances with “Doc Savage”, and the results are wild,” Green says. “I spent a long time hand picking each emcee for their particular songs and pairing them together.” Doc Savage features some of independent hip-hop’s most celebrated voices; Open Mike Eagle, Billy Woods, Denmark Vessey, Milo, Elucid, Has-Lo and Henry Canyons amongst them. The album also includes a beautiful 20-page lyric book featuring paintings acclaimed British artist Graeme Borland. Five years in the making, “Doc Savage” is truly Willie Green’s opus.
