Statik supplies an inspiring saxophone sample that fits the track’s theme perfectly. However, it is Statik’s selection of samples that prove to be the most intriguing part of the album.Īfter a brief introduction, the album kicks off with its lead single, “So Close, So Far.” Bun B and Wale fantasize about a world “ where everything you ever wished for was in reach,” while Colin Monroe takes the chorus. As one of the few high profile producers holding onto the boom -bap style of Hip Hop, Statik enlists the help of several underground artists still holding onto the art. Somehow every combination of artist that Statik places over his instrumental sounds remarkable. On his third solo release 100 Proof: The Hangover, Statik Selektah makes it apparent that he hasn’t lost a step and proves he has an ear second-to-none in his role. When you listen to Statik Selektah’s production, one thing is for certain he’s a true student of the game.
