Philadelphia doesn't just have a music scene — it has a lineage. And "Norf Side," produced by the legendary DJ Premier, is proof that the line runs unbroken from Jill Scott to Tierra Whack. Released February 13 via Blues Babe Records/Human Re Sources/The Orchard as part of Jill Scott's album To Whom This May Concern, the track is a jubilant, percussion-driven love letter to the North Philadelphia neighborhoods that shaped them both — Scott's warmth and Whack's charismatic wit locking in together like they've been doing this for years. 

Premier's production is characteristically sharp, giving the record an old-school grounding that lets both artists' personalities shine without ever getting in the way. The two recently performed "Norf Side" live together at Philadelphia's One Philly: Unity Concert for America, part of the city's America 250th anniversary celebrations — and the crowd's reaction said everything.
