02.22.2013
Jesus Malverde To Be Released February 26; New Single Features DJ Paul, Gucci Mane
The Video:
This coming Tuesday, February 26th, A-Wax will release his new free album, Jesus Malverde. The project, which will be released in partnership with Wax's own label, Pie-Rx Recordz, and Illburn Records, includes features Waka Flocka Flame, Ca$his, and more, including two weighty names, Gucci Mane and Three Six Mafia's DJ Paul that show up on today's new single, the last before album release, "Make Room (Remix)."
The single, produced by Nonstop Da Hitman, is one of the most aggressive tracks on Jesus Malverde, and while the album, fittingly given it's title – Jesus Malverde is the patron saint of thieves and drug dealers – deals with the harsher realities of street life, "Make Room (Remix)" finds the three rappers taking a lighter, more fun approach, each laying into the beat's plucking synth line and heavy 808's with slick wisecracks, the chorus breaking things up to proclaim, "Make room for the goons."

The
Background:
A lot of rappers make music about the penitentiary. Few can say that they learned their craft while incarcerated. Having emerged after a lengthy stretch in the prison system during his teenage years, A-Wax turned to rap and came up in the game old-fashioned way, selling CDs hand-to-hand and through Mom & Pop stores across the region. The hard work has paid off -- A-Wax has moved over 200,000 units, independently, no small feat, and the accomplishment eventually led to a deal with Akon's Konvict Muzik label. A-Wax and Akon ultimately went their seperate ways, due to creative differences, and now A-Wax is back on the independent grind. In 2012, A-Wax released Everybody Loves Me: Chapter 1., with features from French Montana, Styles P., Mistah FAB, and more. He followed that with the announcement of his new label, Pie-Rx Recordz. and the release of his Pie-Rx Muzik mixtape. Now, A-Wax is prepping the release of his latest album, Jesus Malverde, which includes features from Gucci Mane, Waka Flocka Flame, Cashis, and YG Hootie, and will be released Feburary 26, 2013.
