The Song:
The music continues to flow from the Brooklyn/Baltimore duo known as Constant Deviants. M.I. and DJ Cutt have been busy working on their forthcoming LP, Diamond, and although that project won't surface until late spring, the group's rapper, M.I., fresh off releasing the first single off his solo EP, "Skyscraper," is dropping the lead single and title track from the project, titled "Allnighter." The Allnighter EP will be produced entirely by Australian producer Debonair P, and will be available on 12" vinyl in the coming weeks.
Upon the release of "Skyscraper," M.I. praised Debonair P for having a "lock on the '90s sound," and true to his word, "Allnighter" keeps that distinctive '90's feel, with a straight-forward beat, accented well by well placed scratches and vocal chops. "When I heard the track it gave me the feeling of being up all night and seeing what goes on in our environment," explains M.I., who delivers over the instrumental with his smooth baritone, accented by lyrics that grab the listener with each subsequent listen. "It's like 6 in the morn'/ Man, he's out on the block getting money like he did it before," raps M.I. "Come home and count it up on the living room floor/ Getting drunk, trying to forget everything that he saw."

The
Background:
In the world of hip-hop, a name carries the weight of an entire career. It's the brand, the logo, but most importantly the mission of the group. For Constant Deviants, it's a title that has grown with them over time: constantly changing, departing from the norm. Forming their own imprint SIX2SIX Records in 2009, the group consists of the traditional MC and DJ combination with M.I. (Mr. Impossible) on the microphone and D.J. CUTT behind the tables and beats. With their sights currrently set on the 2012 release of their newest project Diamond, the Deviants are preparing fans for the unheralded return of real rap music with the album's precursor, entitled Platinum: The Mixtape, available now for free download via Bandcamp.
