Maison De Funk are proud to be releasing "BLACK RICH PORT 2", the follow-up to Agallah The Don's acclaimed album Black Rich Port.

Last time round Don Agturo roped in elite spitters like Tragedy Khadafi and GREA8GAWD for an intense, at times angry, unapologetic recounting of Puerto Rico's rightful place in history and the contribution of its people to US and more specifically, Hip-Hop culture.

Black Rich Port 2 takes things a different route, as he leans ever further into the culture on tracks like "Nuyorican Flex" and "Dominoes" - right from the intro "Puertorican Roots", the Don makes his point clear, and this is a record still drenched in history and pride, with a sound clearly moulded by Agallah's first ever trip to Puerto Rico at the start of this year. The result is  yet more exceptional Hip-Hop from one of the most consistent artists ever, exemplified by the first single "Verdad" featuring fellow PR emcee Cardona.

Opening with the heater "Spoken From Experience", Black Rich Port 2 reflects a Hip-Hop legend  at peace with himself, reflecting on his life, history and legacy in the culture.

Guests this time out are not really required, but prodigy M-Tundra lends a hand on "Nuyorican Flex", "Albizu" and "Jimmy Buckets", and the unmistakable voice of Wu-Tang Clan's Cappadonna graces "The Only Option".

This is a mature, reflective album driven by a relaxed approach which melds PR culture and Hip-Hop in an authentic way, yet still sounds undeniably Don Bishop.
