Arrested Development – Adult Contemporary Hip Hop

Dropping July 4th | Co-Executive Produced by Speech & Configa



Releasing on Independence Day, Adult Contemporary Hip Hop is both a celebration and a challenge — reflecting on freedom, self-determination, and the contradictions still woven into Black American life.



Dedicated to the late Twan Mack, the album takes its title from a mantra he lived by — and transforms it into a bold, grown, and deeply soulful statement. This marks the fourth consecutive Arrested Development project co-executive produced by Speech and UK boom-bap specialist Configa, continuing a creative partnership that has helped shape the group’s modern resurgence.



This time, the album features very few outside features — the focus being on the AD family: Frontman Speech, 1Love, Tasha LaRae, and Fareedah, with extended kin Ke’Andra and Bee Taylor. Music production is led by Speech and Configa, with additional contributions from MRK SX and Ben Marc.



The album was engineered by Speech, Configa, and JJ Boogie, capturing a cohesive, soulful sound rooted in classic hip-hop aesthetics. Cover artwork was done by Maria Pokrovskaya.



Lyrically rich and sonically grounded, the project explores melanin pride, the world since Trump’s election, mortality, relationships, love, legacy, and bar-for-bar energy — all underpinned by the timeless rhythms of boom-bap.



Adult Contemporary Hip Hop isn’t just a tribute — it’s a continuation. Of family. Of message. Of real hip-hop.

David Bowie genre: Glam Rock / Proto-punk
release date May 21, 1972 publisher: RCA
The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (often shortened to Ziggy Stardust) is the fifth studio album by the English musician David Bowie, released on 16 June 1972 in the United Kingdom through RCA Records. It was co-produced by Bowie and Ken Scott and features Bowie's backing band the Spiders from Mars, composed of Mick Ronson (guitar), Trevor Bolder (bass) and Mick Woodmansey (drums). It was recorded from November 1971 to February 1972 at Trident Studios in London.

Described as a loose concept album and rock opera, Ziggy Stardust focuses on Bowie's titular alter ego Ziggy Stardust, a fictional androgynous and bisexual rock star who is sent to Earth as a saviour before an impending apocalyptic disaster. In the story, Ziggy wins the hearts of fans but suffers a fall from grace after succumbing to his own ego. The character was inspired by numerous musicians, including Vince Taylor. Most of the album's concept was developed after the songs were recorded. The glam rock and proto-punk musical styles were influenced by Iggy Pop, The Velvet Underground and Marc Bolan. The lyrics explore the artificiality of rock music, political issues, drug use, sexuality and stardom. The album cover, photographed in monochrome and recoloured, was taken in London outside the home of furriers "K. West".
