Extremely rare. I recorded this in Paris-France, while on a 2006 European tour with the 90's platinum group, Lords of the Underground.
Nemo was given a bunch of beats from Barracuda (UK Killa Bees Wu Tang Clan Affiliate) and invited me in. Nemo is an amazing multilingual artist. Speaks 5 languages fluently.
