Lord Hakim releases single featuring Planet Asia from debut album

An emcee, producer and studio engineer, Lord Hakim from Columbus, Ohio, is a Hip-Hop enthusiast to the fullest, but who like many of us, prefers his beats dirty and his lyricism enlightened. "My style of Hip Hop is grungy samples over boom bap percussion with razor sharp turntable techniques; now that's Hip Hop! When it comes to emceeing, I'm a thinker; it's all about vocabulary and being descriptive. The thing about Hip Hop is you actually get hear the novel within an orchestrated arrangement and it can set the mood for whatever chapter or track you're on" Hakim states. For the first leak, "Scripturez," from Lord Hakim's recently released debut project, Born With A Determined Idea, Hakim trades verses and wisdom with Planet Asia on the self produced track.
