DJ Premier and Roc Marciano have released their new single ‘Armani Section’.
Available now, this single serves as a precursor to a full collaborative project, with an EP anticipated for release later this year. The two hip-hop legends have been acquainted for years, and it was a chance meeting during a shopping trip that sparked discussions about working together in the studio.
Now released, ‘Armani Section’ marks the initial results of their collaboration. Renowned for his production prowess, DJ Premier continues to lead the way in the industry with his commitment to authentic sound, cultivating a distinctive style while embracing fresh influences.
Roc Marciano plays a vital role in the evolution of rap, and his confident delivery lends a polished quality to ‘Armani Section’.
“True Story. Several years ago, I was at Macy’s in Herald Square, passing through the ‘Armani Section’ when I encountered Roc Marci, who asked me when we’d collaborate on a record,” Premier reminisces. “I assured him we would eventually do it. Fast forward a few years to right before Christmas 2024, I called him to say it was time to make it happen. I reminded him of that day, and he suggested that should be the title of the record. The tone was officially set.”
Roc Marciano adds, “’Armani Section is both gritty and luxurious. It’s everything you’d expect from a Preemo and Marci collaboration…”
