It’s a Style Sport stays true to Shabazz Palaces' form in its daring show of experimental hip-hop and free-form poetry, while revealing a more reflective and upfront side of the Seattle musician. It’s a Style Sport finds Butler compiling what he’s learned from his storied career into a playful, shimmering portal, again proving himself an artist of chameleonic ambition, fueled by curiosity, courage, and a limitless imagination. The album is the product of a collaborative, communal effort with many of Butler’s touring band members: Evan Flory-Barnes on upright and electric bass; Thaddeus Turner on guitar, keyboards, and vocals; Kassa Overall on drums; Gerald Turner on bass and vocals; Marquetta Miller on vocals; and Carlos Overall on saxophone. Butler’s longtime friend and collaborator Erik Blood provided instrumentation, production, and mixing. On It’s a Style Sport , a visage of Butler’s past lives as a rapper and performer is flung up against his contemporary persona, taunting and illuminating. At its core, It’s a Style Sport is an ode to the rap game of years past, when the playfully competitive ambition drove the genre to always outdo, outrun, and out-finesse your peers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack listing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eAhh World (I Won The Alpha Bet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eField Notes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eShow Me Missouri In Mink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eJheri Curl Jump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eDeadstock Dude\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eTongue In Chic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eHeliocentric Immortality Manifesto H.I.M.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eOlivia According To Touch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eMoney Can't Save Your Mind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eFrom One Future To Another\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Waiting Room Records","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":45366152396915,"sku":null,"price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Metallic Silver LP","offer_id":45366152429683,"sku":null,"price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0082\/4315\/0908\/files\/unnamed-1_2ffb850e-d8f4-43c8-839a-0b539c7ae07d.jpg?v=1786822350","url":"https:\/\/waitingroomrecords.com\/products\/shabazz-palaces-its-a-style-sport-preorder-out-10-23","provider":"Waiting Room Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
