Witness the first 45 RPM single on Greedy Man Records: the arrival of Soul Slice and the departure of your previously conceived notions about what is and isn't the shiznit. The instrumental A-side "Angie's Suite" features a soulful female vocal sample lacing a couple funky change-ups attempting to redefine the word "bassline." There's also some lonesome harmonica in there for the rainy days.

The Jon Doe-produced B-side "All the Way Down" is sure to get more than just your head nodding… It might even get your collar popping. A shuffling hi-hat accents the straight-ahead kick-snare thump. From the solitary bass figure in the beginning to the climactic horn blasts at the end, this cut - also an instrumental - brings the funk to justify putting whitewalls on the 'Lac. Please believe.

While only a teenager, during a fateful trip to Atlanta one Jason Lawson bumped into the legendary Busta Rhymes who, within minutes, bestowed the title "J Nastee the Illest" upon him. Nastee first made his presence known on Egon's 911 Emergency show on WRVU 91.1 FM, where he announced to the world exactly who was "laying the bricks in the foundation of the Hip Hop Nation." Nobody could doubt that dude was serious! Even if his celebrated "wig" was so thoroughly "split."

The other half of Soul Slice would be DJ Jon Doe, Kentucky native and current resident of the ATL. Doe made a name for himself in Nashville on the radio and live at the Shapes of Rhythm series. His funky karma led to the opportunity to do a remix with Egon on the Beastie Boys DVD anthology in 2000. Luckily for Atlanta hip-hop, Doe joined up with Prophetix MCs Eddie Meeks and Mello Melanin in time to produce one of the hottest underground albums of 2002, High Risk! And of course he had to holla at J Nastee for some assistance on the project… Nastee produced the final cut "Guest List" on the soon-to-be-classic. The results were golden, as Jon Doe's cinematic vibe and Nastee's penchant for funk drama had always gelled. Luckily for the percussion public, more evidence of this alchemy is on the way…
