Their most recent studio release, “It's All Game,” feels like a perfect introduction to what Dregs One and Ill Sugi are able to accomplish by blending the energy of modern rap and the unique melodies of the golden age.

Hailing from Japan, III Sugi has worked with Dregs One in the past, and they have a history of making successful collaborative tracks that highlight their chemistry.

The song immediately kicks off with a very understated, yet electrically charged introduction, which sets the mood for what’s about to follow. The arrangement is perfectly calibrated, allowing the vocals to stand out and soar on top of the music. “It's All Game” is a truly well-executed rap tune, which showcases world class production and performance value. Dregs One and Ill Sugi are talented innovators who knows how to stand out from the average aspiring artists, aiming to do something more intui-tive and one-of-a-kind versatility. The song has a very inspiring subject matter, as it focuses on the idea of staying on top of your game when it comes to hustling and followinh your dreams. Any pursuit--from business, women, and life in general--could use some extra focus, so this song is an amazing invitation to staying sharp and on-point to really nail the game!

lyrics

Oh yeah
Dregs One
Ill Sugi
Gautama on the boards
Let's go
Let's get it
Yo!

Gold links shine off sunlight
Julio lined my hair up just right
Air Jordans laced up so tight
So cold you might get frostbite
She feel the vibe cuz I satisfy her appetite
Left her kids at her mom's house for the night
She with me now and it feels so right
I got other girls and she say she don't mind
Look into her eyes and I see a gold mine
She spread her legs and I go dive inside
Got me feelin' like I'm floating in the Dead Sea
As the waves crash the shore & the wind breeze
I get the check & we hop in a new whip
Bumpin' Larry June feelin' like a true pimp
But she know with me, it's all respect
She wanna live and I'm giving her a reason

It's all game
Chop it up flip it rearrange
To a square it might sound lame
But a real player recognize the same
It's all game
It's all game
Chop it up flip it rearrange
To a square it might sound lame
But a real player recognize the same
It's all game

Gold links shine off moonlight
Money Mike hooked my fit up just right
Chuck Tees laced up so tight
So cold water freeze into ice
I just got a fresh check so I'ma keep it movin'
Depositin' my funds at the credit union
I got a line on a plug for a new flip
Me and my partners thinkin' 'bout investin'
Send the paperwork lemme go and take a look
I'ma have my accountant review the books
I was jukkin kush before the packs of cooks
Now I'm legitimate, some of my homies crooks
Came a long way from the sacks backpacks
Incorporate in Delaware avoid tax
Making money while I sleep I relax
Tomorrow I'ma make a play and run it back

It's all game
Chop it up flip it rearrange
To a square it might sound lame
But a real player recognize the same
It's all game
It's all game
Chop it up flip it rearrange
To a square it might sound lame
But a real player recognize the same
It's all game

Hey check this out man
We ain't glorifying nothing
This ain't about materialism
This ain't about capitalism
This about doing what you gotta do and being a real player in the game, man
Handling your business, man
I don't make my art for my business
I do my business so I can make more art
But you suckas don't understand that
Ill Sugi
Dregs One
Forever
