hip-hop lost one of its most talented wordsmiths when fred the godson passed away due to complications with covid-19 last year. however, his family has continued his legacy by launching the nonprofit fred the godson foundation, as well as releasing some of his most sought-after music on vinyl and cd. ascension is the first posthumous release with all new material from the south bronx emcee. the tracks were handpicked by fred s brother russ and they are a prime example of the creative high he was on just before his passing. the collection of songs includes production from the heatmakerz and guest spots from g mims, guap sinatra, m city, reef hustle, bandz dinero and more. this album is a celebration of fred s life and so, fittingly, the lp dropped digitally on his birthday, february 22. on the same day, new york city officials unveiled a new street name in the south bronx honoring the respected lyricist: fredrick -fred the godson- thomas way. a lot of artists make street music, but only a handful have ever received a tribute with street signs.
