(New York, NY May 26, 2006) Hot off the heels of their smash hit …1 single Grillz, Ali, of the platinum selling group St. Lunatics, and “Dirty South” impresario Goodie Mob alum Big Gipp score the …1 most added record at the rhythm crossover radio format this week with their debut single, “Go Head” from their collaborative CD Kinfolk. Kinfolk, due in stores late summer 06 is on superstar rapper Nelly’s record label, Derrty Ent., an imprint with Universal Motown Records.

Go Head, produced by up and coming St. Louis native Trife, is an anthemic summer song that combines “midwest swing” with southern crunk. The Go Head video was directed by newcomer Melina and will be serviced to video outlets soon.

“Gipp and I started hanging out a while back and found that we had a lot in common,” says Ali. “We’re both considered leaders in our crews, we’re fathers and even though we have different styles, we respect each other’s skills.” Gipp describes their collaborative effort as the best of both worlds— the St. Lunatics kicked off the midwest movement and Goodie Mob helped establish southern rap, thats why I say its the best of both worlds. Plain and simple.”

In that spirit, Kinfolk has a mix of songs featuring “St. Louis” kin: Nelly, Murphy Lee and Derrty Ent newcomers, Chocolate Tai and Avery Storm; “Atlanta” kin Cee-lo and other southern all-stars include Juvenile, David Banner, Three 6 Mafia and Bun B.
