MEMPHIS BLEEK RELEASES HIS FIRST SINGLE "STILL ILL"!

Former Roc-A-Fella rap star Memphis Bleek has officially stepped out on his own with the release of “Still Ill,” the first single from his upcoming album.

The track was produced by Canei Finch, who has worked with artists, most notably T.I. (“Live Your Life”) and Maino (“All The Above”).

"Still Ill," which will be available worldwide on February 23, is taken from Memphis Bleek’s upcoming fifth album The Process.

The Process has been delayed several times since early 2007, when Memphis Bleek announced that he would begin work on the solo effort, which will stores via his Get Low Records/Mass Appeal Entertainment.

“The Process has been exactly that; a process. Taking what I’ve learned from a teacher and creating my own school,” Memphis Bleek told AllHipHop.com in a statement. “It’s time for me to handle my own business as a man and Mass Appeal supports the vision. I’m ready to share The Process and Get Low Records with the world and along with Mass Appeal, I’m excited to take the next steps in my career independently.”

The Process is Memphis Bleek’s first official album in five years, his last release being 2005’s 534, for Jay-Z’s Roc-A-Fella Records imprint.

Producers on the album include Just Blaze, No I.D., while Rick Ross, Pharrell Williams and executive producer, Jay-Z make guest appearances.
