Roc Marciano – Writer’s Block, prod. by Pete Rock // Video //

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rR8wJXyZk0A]

This track entitled “Writer’s Block” by Roc Marciano and Pete Rock just
surfaced, & it’s a beast as expected. There’s no way to tell what project
this was intended for, but it’s always good to hear material from the
duo. Look for Roc‘s upcoming LP Marcberg: Reloaded, which is
set to feature contributions by some heavyweight producers.
