It was just a few days ago we posted new joint from producer Marco Polo featuring the God Rakim called ‘What’s Wrong’. He’s back with another gem called ‘Nite & Day’ with another hip hop legend in Big Daddy Kane. This particular joint finds the ill producer flipping Al B. Sure’s 1988 R&B classic ‘Nite & Day’ while BDK spits the appropriate bars to make this joint pop properly. This joint will appear on Marco Polo’s forthcoming free-LP “Newport Authority 2†as Marco states “I’ve recorded so much quality material over the last few years and I really want to share it all.
