Prof is releasing the stream of his Liability album exclusively through HipHopDX. The Minneapolis rapper’s 16-track project is set to be released to retail tomorrow (October 16).
Atmosphere’s Ant, Aesop Rock, Big Chocolate, Mux Mool and Curtiss King are among the producers on the project, which Prof says describes his role on Rhymesayers Entertainment, which is releasing Liability.
“We picked the title Liability because that about sums me up,” Prof says during an exclusive interview with HipHopDX. “I’m definitely the fuck-up of Rhymesayers, the wild card.”

To this point, Liability features high-profile, non-Rhymesayers collaborations. Tech N9ne appears on “Ghost,” while Waka Flocka Flame guests on “Apeshit” and Petey Pablo appears on “King.”
Prof says that he didn’t set out to have specific artists on Liability.
“I let the beat come first, and then I reached out to heads that I thought would be perfect over it, after,” Prof says. “That’s the way it should be, if you ask me. Let shit happen through the music. I mean, just listen to those songs. They’re the shit. Donald Trump probably lifts weights to them.”

The retail version of Liability will also showcase 16 song-specific illustrations, drawn by Prof himself, which will be included in a 36-page booklet that comes with the CD version of the project.
