	MP3: Full \|REBEL\| Jacket - "Purple Lights" Ft. B.J. The Chicago Kid	07.20.2012


	The REBEL EP Scheduled For September 3 Release; Second Single Features Fast Rising Singer

The Song: Last week, Phoenix, Arizona - by way of Dallas, Texas and Anchorage, Alaska - duo Full \|REBEL\| Jacket released the video for "Stray Bullet," a song that features Dungeon Family legend Big Rube. The song serves as the lead single from their forthcoming free EP, *the REBEL EP, which will be released on September 3rd, and today G and Q are excited to release the album's latest single, "Purple Lights,"* which features up-and-coming crooner B.J. The Chicago Kid. For Full \|REBEL\| Jacket, they were inspired to write the song as testament to motivation - both as a document of where they've been and also a statement of purpose for all those striving for something more. "I was thinking about reaching the goals we'd set for ourselves," recalls Q of what inspired his writing process. "We wanted to create a powerful record," adds G, "that people can play when they accomplish something." The song, as with all of the REBEL EP, is self-produced by Q and G, and while the group is very much a self-contained unit, just as with "Stray Bullet," Full \|REBEL\| Jacket felt that a third voice was just what they needed to round out the track. They reached out to B.J. The Chicago Kid, who delivers a haunting, urgent chorus, as he sings, "You never know what's gonna happen next/ So you know you gotta be ready/ Even when the ground shake/ Hold the wheel tight, strong, and steady/ The objective is to keep from going under/ And when you realize that you're okay/ That's when you fly away."

The Background: Like Big Boi and André 3000, Pimp C and Bun B, Full \|REBEL\| Jacket is proof that when it comes to hip-hop, opposites attract. Formed in 2009 after a parking lot freestyle revealed that the two differing-skilled rappers had a chemistry, the duo of G, a Dallas, Texas native and rhyme partner Q, an Alaskan transplant, released their first two mixtapes under the name American Negro before reconfiguring themselves as Full \|REBEL\| Jacket during the making of their 2010 Loose Leaf series, a weekly installment of recorded freestyles the two compiled into a release. Packed with a moniker that fit the duo's mysterious aesthetic and inventive voice, Full \|REBEL\| Jacket began work on this year's the REBEL EP, the first project to find G and Q contributing their own beats and instrumentation to each track, and the result is Full \|REBEL\| Jacket's most concise and powerful project yet. The free EP, which includes features from Big Rube, BJ The Chicago Kid, Nikkiya, Chalie Boy, and more, will be released September 3rd.
