Quazedelic and Snoop Dogg are about to take listeners to Anuthaworld: Quazedelic has played a crucial role in the Snoop Dogg's music behind the scenes, a full on collaboration between the fonk monk and Doggfather was destiny waiting to be fulfilled � until now. "Hold On," off Quazedelic's upcoming debut LP Stan Sly: AnuthaWorld, has the artists combining their smooth, similar styles from separate genres for the album's first single.

Similar to Snoop Dog's appearance on of The Gorillaz's Plastic Beach, the result is soothing combination of funk and hip-hop that takes listeners to another place; in this case, Anuthaworld.

About his own style for the upcoming album, Quazedelic says, "I bridge the gap between serious real life songs with fantasy funk tracks." That is exactly what he does with "Hold On." The track opens with a deep, sensual voice, "Looking back in my conscious mind, digging back and searching to find..."

The lyrics set up a mystic atmosphere where anything can happen. However, many of Quazedelic's lyric's are grounded in reality: "I'm Working hard, praying night and day, that something good might come my way." Snoop Dog's lyrics serve as an alternative reality, the id of the song, so to speak. He raps, "So raise up off of me, and let me dip up the streets in my 73/ Grey on black interior, black like me, chandeliers hanging with the ass swinging," while Quazedelic harmonizes in the background.

The spectacular dream-world that snoop dog raps about plays against the pain-filled sound of Quazedelic's harmonies. "Hold On," helps explain the purpose of funk, and how it can be used as a vehicle to escape from reality.

Quazedelic's Stan Sly: Anuthaworldwill be available October 5th via Georgia Anne Muldrow's and Declaime's SomeOthasShip Connect.
