DJ Premier and Ransom have announced their joint project ‘The Reinvention,’ out now via TTT (To The Top), alongside the release of first single and video “Amazing Graces.” Following Premier’s collaborative union with Roc Marciano on ‘The Coldest Profession’ and ahead of this winter’s He’s The Preemo I’m The Chemist European Tour with The Alchemist, the legendary producer has enlisted another elite sniper for a project rooted in timelessness and true craftsmanship. “Amazing Graces” will be featured on NBA 2K26 Beats Official Soundtrack with in-game billboards starting in early November, showcasing the duo’s commitment to creating music that prioritizes substance over spectacle.
‘The Reinvention’ represents a meeting of two master craftsmen, with Premier’s fingerprints woven into the DNA of hip-hop production meeting Ransom, recognized by peers and fans as one of the best pound-for-pound emcees alive. Ransom explains he’s a way bigger rap fan than rapper, living his dreams out in real time by creating with DJ Premier, seamlessly weaving in no less than five Gang Starr album titles over the course of a few bars on “Amazing Graces.” Premier asserts that underground hip-hop has consistently dominated the scene because of approaches like Ransom’s raw, uncut bars that cater to the streets, and with the musical landscapes he provides, listeners can expect five stars. The project delivers a transformational musical experience that resonates as exacting, precise, and streetwise, proving the journey is just as important as the destination.
