When Your Old Droog first entered the Hip-Hop scene a decade ago, he was cloaked in anonymity. The Ukraine-born, Brooklyn bred rap phenomenon was known solely for his sharp, punchy lyrics wrapped in a gruff delivery. Some speculated who was the man behind the sophisticated wordplay. He finally came into the light with his eponymous debut release, the catalyst for what has become a prolific career. Through eight LP’s and ten EP’s, Your Old Droog has crystallized his place in Hip-Hop as the erudite rapper who can tackle any beat with precision; a product of the underground, yet designed for the mainstream. With his new project Movie, YOD is in a new era, where his days of being the dark horse in rap are over. He has countless co-signs from some of the greatest to ever touch a mic, and now he’s finally geared to join them. Legendary Hip-Hop contemporaries like the late Prodigy and MF Doom, Black Thought, Yasiin Bey, El-P (Run The Jewels), and Madlib have all co-signed YOD and his artistry (a project exclusively with Madlib will follow Movie). His time has finally come, and YOD is ready to show the world who he really is and why he’s headed for stardom. “Movie is everything that's unique about me,” he says with sincerity. “Every song, every mood. This is my story.”
