Pusha T teamed up with his brother No Malice for a Clipse reunion on Nigo’s “Punch Bowl” in March, but the collaborative work might not end there. During his recent interview with Hot 97, Push revealed he has another verse from No Malice and talked about what it was like to work alongside him once again.
“First of all, just being in the studio with him was amazing,” he explained. “Already from ‘Punch Bowl,’ everybody was like, ‘I told y’all his brother was better than him!’ Like, that’s all the conversation is. It’s cool man, it’s cool! And when y’all hear this other verse, it’s crazy! Like, it’s so good. I’m glad we got in to do those two.”
With Pusha T’s new album It’s Almost Dry dropping imminently, it’s likely the unreleased verse will end up on the project. He also revealed he’s pushing for another Clipse album, but said it’s all down to No Malice.
“You know me, I’m pressing for an album,” he said. “I’m pressing. I mean, he’s just chilling, he’s not pressing. I do have the like, ‘Little brother, I can ask you to do things,’ thing. So, that’s how I got these. And it just made sense, you know, the Nigo thing. He was there. I was particular about it [being credited as Clipse] … I just want him to see that.”
Clipse appeared on Nigo’s I Know NIGO! album alongside features from Kid Cudi, Tyler, The Creator, A$AP Rocky, Pop Smoke, Lil Uzi Vert and Gunna.
On “Punch Bowl,” Pusha T and No Malice spit a verse each over production from longtime collaborators, The Neptunes. As a duo, the track marked their first time working with Pharrell and Chad Hugo since 2009’s Til the Casket Drops.
Before “Punch Bowl,” Clipse’s last feature landed on Kanye West’s “Use This Gospel” in 2009, appearing on his Jesus Is King album.
Im a big Clipse fan and think Pusha T is a great solo artist. But is No Malice pengame still sharp? If he haven’t really written a lot then I’m not sure he’ll be able to snap like he used to, especially on Hell Hath No Fury where all his verses are incredible.
Then you don’t know the music then go search for No Malice’s work and find out for yourself. Why you depend on opinions of others? Personally, he’s just as raw as he was on the clipse albums but people act like hoes when it comes to someone speaking on spiritual experience…but Wana hear a rapper talk about what he doing with his wee-wee and how he spending money
First off, It’s my own opinion. Second, I’ve heard No Malice solo work and it’s good but not as potent as the former clipse projects. Lastly, I don’t mind spirituality at all. I’m glad you find him to be just as raw as he always been, I disagree.
Jesus is king 2019
Dope. I’m looking for to hearing another Clipse album. No Malice still sharp and Pusha T been holding it down in his absence at GOAT levels. Peace to them.
