Team Demo continue their incredible hot streak of the past few years with a hard-hitting new album, It's a Demo, featuring raw production and dope guest features. The legendary DMV production crew is joined by the likes of Method Man, Skyzoo, Rome Streetz, Planet Asia, and Ras Kass for a record full of banging beats and slick lyricism. What's even more impressive about this project is that it arrives on the heels of another Team Demo release, this past spring's The Essential Team Demo LP. It served as a reintroduction of sorts for the crew and it compiled previously released tracks from their 12" singles and full length-all remastered. On top of that, they're doing it all independently, which Team Demo admits is challenging but well worth it. "Doing this independently is a lot harder than people think, but is also more rewarding," Team Demo says. "Betting on yourself is always the best bet." And with It's a Demo, Team Demo is blessing hip-hop heads with an all-killer, no-filler project that kicks off with the grimy "Quest Love Bounce," which in addition to guest appearances from lyrical heavyweights Skyzoo and Planet Asia, find both Wais and Yogi reunited once again after their recently released high season anthem, "Timbs in the Summer." They both appear on Team Demo's favorite track, the grimy "Quest Love Bounce," which features none other than Skyzoo and Planet Asia, too. As for Wais, he wanted to shout out "Creep" with MC Eiht and Montage One. "It's got such an authentic old-school and West Coast vibe," he says. Other standouts include "Camera Flash (feat. Illa Ghee, Wais P & Method Man)" and "What You Don't See (feat. Lil Fame of M.O.P. & Nems)."
