Fresh off the TRL Latino tour, Dallas, Texas producer duo, Play-N-Skillz, have leaked two new tracks -- Lil Wayne's second single, "Got Money" featuring T-Pain, and the first single from their upcoming album, Out Tha Box.
The duo introduced their self-produced new single, "One Mo' Gin" featuring Bun B, Krayzie Bone and Lil Jon, which is the first off their upcoming sophomore release.
"The energy on 'One Mo' Gin' is crazy," said Skillz. "The production is soulful and everyone verse's including Krayzie's and Bun B's are classic."
As far as the album, the producers reveal that they are meshing genres, in an attempt to appeal to a wide audience.
"With Out Tha Box, we didn't accept any boundaries or rules -- we took chances," added Play. "We experimented with different genres of music from hip-hop and R&B to reggae and house music, this album has it all."
For Out Tha Box, Play-N-Skillz has enlisted a heavyweight list of producers and artists to help them, including Talib Kweli, Lil Jon, Slim Thug, Slim from 112, Bun B, Krayzie Bone, Sean Kingston, Tego Calderon and Nina Sky.
They are currently in the studio putting the final touches to the album, and are working with the aforementioned guests as we speak.
