Shabazz Palaces

SHABAZZ PALACES- "BLAST IT" from Village Beat on Vimeo.


Seattle-based hip hop/electro group Shabazz Palaces is veiled in an air of mystery thanks to lead member Ishmael (Butterfly) Butler, who now likes to be called Palaceer Lazaro. Sub Pop Records signed them last year after Butler self-relased two albums in 2010. He does not like publicity or promotion, and will not reveal who else is involved in the project. Their new album Black Up will be available on June 28.
