Evidence - Jim Dean [Music Video Clip]

Evidence has returned to deliver his third solo album, Weather or Not, the final chapter in the Weatherman series before beginning the next saga.

“As a writer and a rapper, I’ve been using the weather as a metaphor my whole career. On the Dilated Peoples song “Guaranteed”, I had a line that said, ‘Some think I’m clever, others think I’m the one who makes too many references to weather… or not.’ Every time I would perform that song live, the crowd would always say the ‘or not’, so I knew I was on to something, and it would eventually be an album title.” –Evidence

For Weather or Not, Evidence tapped a stellar cast of producers to share duties with, including Alchemist, DJ Premier, Nottz, DJ Babu, Twiz the Beat Pro, Sam I Yam and Budgie. The album also features an all-star lineup of guests and friends, including Slug (Atmosphere), Rakaa (Dilated Peoples), Alchemist, Styles P, Rapsody, Jonwayne, Defari, Krondon, Khrysis, Mach Hommy and Catero.

“I made this album with loyalists in mind. There’s nothing that’s unintentional. There are no wasted words.” –Evidence
