about

“Real life reality rap is intact, metaphors can be medicine and that is a fact.” - Demetrius Rhymes

“What will you sacrifice for your tomorrow?” croons Aloe Blacc, stretching the canvas of Josh One’s “Sacrifice” and readying it to be painted by the versatile Demetrius Rhymes.

Josh One’s “Sacrifice” sees the renowned Producer and DJ returning to form with Aloe Blacc —the two previously collaborated on the “Grey Skies” EP, featuring Myka9— as Demetrius Rhymes takes listeners on a poignant and pensive lyrical journey, holding up a double-sided mirror appealing to the listener and himself to truly define “Sacrifice.”

With decades of experience under their collective belts “Sacrifice” should be taken as a cautionary tale by this prolific trio. Josh One’s “futuristic-vintage” production paired with Blacc’s enveloping harmonies, is coupled with Rhymes’ lyrical grit to produce a joint that feels timeless and hearty like a solid breakfast. Clocking in at 4:01, this is one that you’ll spin again and again.

With sonic placements across an array of networks and motion pictures including Starz (Power), HBO (Silicon Valley), CBS (CSI NY, Miami, Las Vegas), ABC (HTGAWM) and many more, the anthemic “Sacrifice” joins an assortment of music that taps into Josh One’s innovative and world class production.

"Demetrius Rhymes is one of the industry's finest emcees and Josh One has been a longtime collaborator and friend with a unique organic style. The lyrics, already powerful, fit perfectly with the sonic foundation so I just tried to tie the theme together between verses. I was honored to join them on this track to offer my melodic and harmonic interpretation" - Aloe Blacc
