NEW YORK (Geffen Records/ www.fieldmob.com) - Southern Hip-Hop Superstars,
Field Mob get set to make their highly anticipated return to the scene with the release of their new album "Light Poles and Pine Trees," which will hit shelves next week. After one too many bad deals and botched promotions for their previous efforts, Smoke (Darion Crawford) and Shawn Jay (Shawn Johnson) are finally getting the look that they deserve at their new home, Disturbing The Peace/Geffen. Following the successful release of their hit single, "
Georgia" featuring
Ludacris and
Jamie Foxx off of the "Ludacris Presents Disturbing Tha Peace" compilation, the Albany, Georgia rap duo's third album will feature 14-tracks of sure-fire hits and all-star collaborations which will be released nationwide on June 20th.
Featuring guest appearances by music's top stars and producers, which include Ciara, Ludacris, Bobby Valentino and Jazze Pha, Field Mob looks to cement their much deserved place as hip-hop royalty through their ability to paint vivid pictures powered by their colorful, down home perspective, making them stand out for years amongst hip hop junkies. Currently on the heals of success with their new album's first official single "So What," featuring Grammy Award Winning songstress, Ciara which was produced by Jazzy Pha, Field Mob has recently inked a tremendous promotional deal with Apple iTunes.
For a limited time, with every purchase of the hit single, "So What," consumers are given an exclusive Field Mob mix tape, which showcases 3 songs from "Light Poles and Pine Trees." With an overwhelming amount of online and radio support by fans, heavy airplay by video networks, in addition to the group's ability to maintain a top 3 position on AOL Radio, Field Mob is looking to redirect the Southern spotlight their way. Having paid just as many dues and shown just as much heart as other Southern rap stars, Smoke and Shawn J reaffirm their status as pioneers of the "Country Boy Movement" with the release of "Light Poles and Pine Trees."
"I feel like we're the most posturpedic group in the industry right now," declares Shawn Jay. "Meaning, we're the most slept-on artists. Other artists know that if we finally get a little bit of light, it's over."
This time, Field Mob cannot be denied. With the release of their highly anticipated third album, it's finally Smoke and Shawn J's time to shine.
