Prefuse 73 mastermind Scott Herren is surrounded by a cavalcade of notable names on his new album, "Surrounded by Silence," due March 22 via Warp. Among the guests are El-P and the Wu-Tang Clan's Ghostface Killah on first single "HideYaFace" (due commercially in late February), fellow Wu-Tang members GZA and Masta Killa, Aesop Rock, Tyondai Braxton, Cafe Tacuba, Beans, Broadcast, the Books, DJ Nobody and Blonde Redhead guitarist Kazu Makino.

"This album is a collection of collaborations between those I respect musically and those who I share personal friendships with," Herren says. "The master plan was to not use any collaboration that had been a commodity to sell a record."

from Prefuse's site:

"Surrounded By Silence", the new Prefuse 73 album is just my attempt to get people in different worlds and environments together. Was there really no Fab 5 Freddy "changing the beat" in two languages back in the day? Who cared that it was in two languages, people burned up speakers with the s**t and thought it was dope. Wait, i forgot, that wasn't kraftwerk that Bambatta rocked and nearly shaped the face of what we call booty shake, freestyle and bounce....? Was Blondie just cashing in on hiphop back in the day by collaborating? hell no, what the f**k was there to cash in on? They were a new wave band on their own s**t. YO!!!! wasn't that FUTURA 2000 behind THE CLASH in the 80s? Graffiti = a cash crop? Hell nah! not until the early to mid 90s with those stupid ass graff typefaces, you know the ones where anyone could look like a graff writer type ish behind a computer?
Whether you dug those first two records by Big Audio Dynamite, who cares? They wouldn't have existed without "the Clash" and "Basement 5" teaming up in another form.. Seeing Mick Jones in a sideways puma hat in full on b-boy stance was hella cool to me as a little s**t... That definitely was "Phase 2" underneath his hood rocking all kinds of s**t when he opened for Prefuse in Bologna, Italy 5 years ago..... and yeah, that cigarette i smoked that night was laced with the out of body type ish. I didn't say that though.

Ok, so Mantronix, Chep Nunez, Latin Rascals, etc.. never f**ked with vocal chops either? Using crazy outside sound sources? I remember when my first Prefuse record dropped, there were heads in an uproar(mostly, well, only journalists) because they figured edits=disrespecting the m.c.... I was thinking, "this is just the s**t i grew up on and mix a little bit of 90s hiphop in there(it was the 90s, joder!), a little bit of bling and lace it over some boom bap, with bugged sounds and you had Prefuse 73. If I was disrespecting any m.c. then why was Doom (btw..hollerrrrrrrr at me!), Aesop, Mikah 9, and whoever else on there unscathed by my so called "wrath".... To all those journalist now, eat a d**k!

For fans of Prefuse; do you remember the song: "back in time"???? the quote/sample about not just doing something with the mc and beats but something more, etc...? That was from a "Wildstyle" interview with Charlie Ahearn. That's the point, i'm not the first to invent anything, i'm carrying on a traditional element of hip hop that never left my system. People wanted to experiment from day one with this artform, not just me... That's what this is all about, I don't hate on the simplest hip hop track, i don't hate on the weirdest, i'm just doing what i do. This was not a major label based, trust funded parents, investment recording. This was an out of pocket excursion i recorded to try to make some s**t happen... everyone on this record was on some love s**t and helped me immensely.. i rode the lines between normality as we know it and bugging the f**k out with some people... big love to all involved..

The point is that this record has people that are famous m.c.s and people that will leave you scratching your head, if i wanted to rent the hottest m.c.s and put them on top of my beats, i would have, but why?. As i said, i want the world to hear these different people on totally different wavelengths on the same record and i wanted to make it respectively, not out of novelty or commodity. Onward with collaborations? No man, i'm done... Hate it, Love it, It's on you.... It is not One word extinguisher pt.3, it is what it is.... Go buy Linkin Park vs. Jay-Z if you can't get with this and that's all fine... This is the only collaborative album i will do in this nature, the next one is already started and it's got no similarity to this one.

Okay I never noticed this section before, but it's cool. And that new Prefuse is the shit! Then of course, I naturally would say that.

What's the deal with Coldplay, Nine Inch Nails, and Daft Punk under hip hop new releases though?
