SPANK ROCK AND BENNY BLANCO ANNOUNCE NEW EP

BANGERS & CASH: THE ADVENTURES OF SPANK ROCK & BENNY BLANCO TO DROP OCTOBER 9th ON DOWNTOWN RECORDS
AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY ON MYSPACE STARTING SEPTEMBER 6th



Spank Rock has returned: following the critical success of 2006's YoYoYoYoYo LP, national late night TV appearances, and non-stop international touring, Spank Rock (aka Naeem Juwan) has teamed up with producer Benny Blanco for the Bangers & Cash EP. Inspired by the raunchy repertoire of 2 Live Crew, Disco D protégé Benny Blanco created tracks based on samples from 2 Live Crew's extensive catalog of explicit hits while Spank Rock contributes his signature rapid fire lyrics in homage to the originators of Miami Bass, and the rest is club rap history.

Beginning September 6th, Myspace will be exclusively debuting new tracks from the Bangers & Cash EP as Single of the Week, and will last for an unprecedented 5 consecutive weeks. The video for "Loose" will also be featured the week of October 3rd.

September 6: "Shake That"
Septmber 13: "BOOTAY"
September 20: "Loose"
September 27: "Bitch"

Press on Spank Rock:
"[Spank Rock] doesn't look or sound like any other rapper as he delivers hyper, clever lyrics over high BPM beatsŠIt knocks, it's creative, and it's tailormade for people already out for a different sort of fix." - THE FADER

"Spank Rock might be the first utopian, multiethnic, underground, conscious booty-bass act- performing for the parties we're holding after the revolution." -ANTHEM

"Juwan's take on rhyme evokes Schoolly D, another Philly MC who combined ig'nant lyrics with sonic innovation...an ode to the very notion that party music and artistic experimentation are not incompatible." -XLR8R
