DJ Premier & A$AP Ferg Connect for the Gritty "Our Streets"
Primo and Ferg sound good together
During a talk with Rap Genius in August, legendary producer DJ Premier talked about a fire song that he did with A$AP Ferg.
Could this be it?
On Thursday, a song with DJ Premier and A$AP Ferg was released. The track, called "Our Streets," features Ferg bringing his unorthodox style to Primo's classic boom-bap. The song was released to celebrate the relaunching of the iconic rap label Payday Records.

The label's original founder is Patrick Moxey. Moxey launched the careers of rappers like Jeru the Damaja, Jay-Z, and Mos Def.
With the release of the single, DJ Premier put out a statement:
“Patrick always had his ear to the street and it didn’t take a lot of explaining the culture since he was so involved with so many aspects of it, including managing Gang Starr‘s legacy from 1989 to 2003. Our memories of growing together is monumental, so relaunching Payday brings it all back to the roots of where our flight to success lifted off.”
