Abstract Mindstate Taps David Banner, Slum Village, And More For New Album 'The Art Project'

Now available on all major digital streaming platforms. 

Olskool Ice-Gre and E.P. Da Hellcat, also known as the Chicago Hip-Hop duo Abstract Mindstate, have released their long-awaited new album The Art Project today (7/18/2025). Available on all major digital streaming platforms via Honest Music/Barak With Love/Vydia, and produced entirely by Young RJ of Slum Village, The Art Project serves as the full-length follow-up to the duo's 2021 Kanye West-produced album Dreams Still Inspire. Guest features include David Banner, Blu, J.Ivy, and more.

"The album cover art itself is a metaphor-- abstract art on display in a gallery, which is an indication that the art is rare and important. The same as the idea of a male/female duo in Hip Hop… Our music is abstract art, filled with color and dimension to make people think. Just like abstract art, some will understand immediately, some later, and some never at all." - Olskool Ice Gre

"I thought about school and how much time and effort we as students would put into our individual art projects, and how we looked forward to that portion of the class that allowed us to showcase what we learned. What we do is art, and this is a project. Hence, ‘The Art Project’. I hope listeners take away our example of staying true to something that is innate and comes from the soul, and how that can be maintained even as life is life-ing!" - EP Da Hellcat 

Stream/purchase The Art Project: https://bit.ly/4euiN1j

 

Album standout  "Who Would've Thunk" (featuring Sly Pyper) was leaked exclusively via Bandcamp earlier this month. The song's official music video is set to debut via Abstract Mindstate's YouTube channel today at 10am EST. Subscribe here.  

 

The Art Project is a result of the undeniable chemistry established between Slum Village and Abstract Mindstate while the two groups toured the Pacific Northwest and Europe together in 2022 and 2024, respectively. Still Paying...An Abstract European Experience, is a short film documenting parts of these experiences, and is due out later this summer. Watch the trailer: https://bit.ly/4lAFjbB 

Abstract Mindstate has been nominated for two Hollywood Independent Music Awards, and are set to perform live at the ceremony in LA on July 30th.

MORE ABOUT ABSTRACT MINDSTATE:

Olskool Ice-Gre and E.P. Da Hellcat  (a.k.a. Ebony Poetress) are the male/female Hip-Hop duo known as Abstract Mindstate, hailing from the Southside and Westside of Chicago respectively. The pair made a name for themselves in the early 2000s with their golden era sensibilities, their brutally honest and introspective lyrics over soulful beats, and their energetic and connected live performances. They proudly label themselves Adult Contemporary Hip Hop or ACH, a term Gre coined and has been using to describe the group’s music for several years.

Their 2001 debut album We Paid, Let Us In! was to be the first of three albums they had planned, including Still Paying and You Owe Us Change. The former was set to feature Kanye West, Common, and John Legend. But when a “a sizable investment” fell through, and their label situation didn't pan out, the album was ultimately shelved. The duo pivoted to their Chicago’s Hardest Working mixtape series to try to stay afloat and keep the momentum in their favor, but the group soon faced personal hardship and decided to hang up the mics in 2008.      

Over a decade later, Gre and EP would re-emerge with a full-length album produced entirely by Kanye West, an artist their group had inspired early on. The album, Dreams Still Inspire, would be the only official release via Kanye's YZY SND imprint. Although no longer affiliated with the label, the group continues to evolve as part of the Slum Village extended family, a sibling group whose DNA permeates the likes of Midwestern Hip-Hop greats.

John Alex Gatsby · Maneater

"When I sat down to write this track, I didn't know quite where it would lead me. All I knew from the offset was that I would allow the beat take my pen to wherever it wanted to go. I took inspiration from the greats that came before me and decided to make my own twist on the Hall and Oates classic but with a more modern feel. I tapped six time #1 Billboard Producer Brandon Alexander Hodge "BAM" and multi-platinum songwriter Omari Massenberg, "GO" to help me in the construction of this track. I believe that together we made a timeless masterpiece that pays homage to those legends who came before us, while simultaneously adding our own unique blend of sound and style as well."
Bio: John Alex Gatsby is a Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter who made a major breakthrough in 2023 with his hit single "Therapy." The soulful track rocketed onto the Billboard Adult R&B Airplay chart, debuting at number 30, marking a significant milestone in his career. With heartfelt lyrics and a smooth, captivating sound, "Therapy" resonated deeply with listeners and quickly gained widespread acclaim, amassing over 439,000 views on the official YouTube video. Since his debut, John has garnered impressive attention on digital streaming platforms, landing on 68 Spotify playlists. His music has also been featured on Apple Music's "Brown Sugar" playlist, where it peaked at position 19. John’s growing fan base can’t get enough of him—not just for his music but for his adventurous spirit. With over 33k followers on Instagram, Gatsby gives fans a glimpse into his life as both a musician and a pilot/aviation business owner. Whether he's soaring through the skies or making music that hits you right in the feels, he’s always keeping it real and engaging with his audience. His ability to blend classic R&B influences, with fresh pop and contemporary sounds make him one of the most exciting new voices in the game. In a move that perfectly reflects both his aviation career and the release timing, his debut album is cleverly titled Mayday—a nod to his life as a pilot and the fact that it drops on May 1.
