Detroit producer Apollo Brown and Joell Ortiz have announced album and single 'Decisions'.

Apollo Brown has made a name for himself as one of Hip-Hop’s most legendary new producers while maintaining a golden era sound.  His production credits are a who’s who of Hip-hop greats from Danny Brown to Ghostface Killah, Ras Kass to Westside Gunn. Even Chance the Rapper used a pair of Apollo beats on his debut mixtapes.  Known for bringing the best out of musicians, Apollo has a knack for making timeless classics.
 
Brooklyn’s Joell Ortiz started on none other than Dr. Dre’s Aftermath label and built a huge buzz in the industry.  He’s worked with legends like Just Blazeamong others. He then signed to Shady Records as ¼ of the supergroup Slaughterhouse. He’s worked with Hip-Hop titans Eminem, Busta Rhymes,Jadakiss, Akon, and Big Daddy Kane.
 
Now the pair of Hip-hop luminaries have their first collaborative album on Mello Music Group. It’s nothing short of a masterpiece: Mona Lisa.

This album IS art overdue. In my ears, this is what the painting Mona Lisa sounds like. The music is straight forward. That’s all I ask for when I’m the listener, so that’s all I give when I’m the creator. No bullshit. None. I provided the canvas, and Joell provided the honest brushstrokes. This album is a relatable body of work that everyone can listen to and appreciate. It’s growth within a gold frame. Open your ears and enjoy.
