Legendary hip hop duo Smif-N-Wessun delivers a sonic uppercut with their brand new album, Infinity. Fresh off a triumphant run of domestic and international tour dates, the Brooklyn-bred duo is proving once again why their name is etched in Hip-Hop history. This release is a testament to their staying power, their evolution, and their ability to craft timeless music that bridges generations.
Executive produced by the iconic 9th Wonder and The Soul Council, Infinity is exactly what its title suggests: an endless reflection of life, legacy, and lyricism. 9th Wonder himself put it best: “I wanted to make sure that it didn’t sound dated. It sounds like them (Smif-N-Wessun), but it’s also new. They are our generation’s version of Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Donald Byrd.”
Infinity is stacked with an illustrious roster of Hip-Hop’s elite. From Boot Camp Clik brethren Buckshot to lyrical assassins like Pharoahe Monch and Conway the Machine, the project is heavy on bars and raw energy. Fans will also be treated to verses from the late, great Sean Price and Prodigy, whose legacies live on through their powerful contributions.
But that’s not all. Smif-N-Wessun took an unexpected but brilliant turn by recruiting R&B royalty Ralph Tresvant, best known as the silky-voiced frontman of New Edition. His presence adds a layer of smooth nostalgia, proving once again that Hip-Hop and R&B will forever be intertwined. Rising talents Sweta and Jalisa round out the lineup, offering fresh voices that keep the album dynamic and forward-thinking.
One of the album’s biggest strengths is its production. With 9th Wonder leading the charge, Infinity delivers that signature Soul Council sound; lush, sample-driven, and hard-hitting. Khrysis, SND*TRK, Kash, Mu’aath, and Nottz all contribute to a soundscape that feels classic yet progressive.
Infinity marks Smif-N-Wessun’s eighth studio album and their second time linking with 9th Wonder and The Soul Council. Available in multiple formats – cassette, CD, digital, and a double vinyl edition – Infinity is giving fans an opportunity to experience the music in any way they choose. And for the real collectors, there’s even an Infinity bundle that includes a CD, 2XLP vinyl, and cassette.
