Influenced by Wu-Tang Clan and Aesop Rock, Sapient is one of those rare hip-hop artists who manages to sound completely unique and fresh, while at the same time evocative of hip hop’s “golden age” artists like De La Soul and Gang Starr.

His upcoming album, Slump, doesn’t drop till February– but we thought we’d give you a taste to get you hyped for it.
Check out the premiere video for his new single “Seeking New Skin” and let us know if you’re as into it as we are! –ALI HOFFMAN

Man this guy is pure fire. A bizarre comparison to hiphop’s golden age as this song is not really even hiphop. Its just a really good song and those who’ve known Sape for years know he’s been way ahead of anything and borrows from everywhere. He sounds more like Beck to me.
