the primeridian: i'll meet you in greenwich
Francisco Espregueira
Back to the 1990’s to present a true classic reissued by Berlin-based 90s Tapes - I’ll Meet You In Greenwich by the Chicago duo The Primeridian is a 21-track opus of tight productions paired with smooth back and forth rhymes. Jaime Roundtree (Tree a.k.a. Tree Tha Scarecrow) and Simeon Viltz (Simeon a.k.a. See-Me-On) constantly talk to each other over groovy productions, making this album another unique gem hailing from the Golden Era scene, still making waves almost 30 years later.
Made of the purest intentions, I’ll Meet You In Greenwich feels strangely nostalgic, reminding us of a time when life was simpler and hip hop more connected to reality. The album is consistently self-assured and confident, containing lyrics that are thoughtful and clever, with music that is always exploring and beautiful. I’ll Meet You in Greenwich is the right medicine for these strange times. Available on a limited 2LP vinyl, CD and cassette as well as digitally.
