Planet Asia Inks New Deal; Lines Up Top Talent For New Album

Bay Area, California rapper Planet Asia has inked a new deal with Wandering Worx Music, a Vancouver, Canada-based independent record label that launched in October of 2010.

Planet Asia has pulled together some of Hip-Hop's biggest names on his debut album for Wandering Worx, which is titled Black Belt Theatre.

Artists like Talib Kweli, Raekwon, Paul Wall and Evidence and DJ Babu of Dilated Peoples have already been confirmed on tracks off of Black Belt Theatre, Planet Asia's sixth official solo release.

“Planet Asia has been catching critical attention since the late ‘90s, and we’re confident he’ll continue to make waves with us and help make this label a hip hop force to reckon with," Wandering Worx' co-founder Rodney Davidson said. “We’re ecstatic to welcome such a hard working artist to the family."

The rapper has stayed busy over the years, releasing albums like The Jewelry Box Sessions, Pain Language (With DJ Muggs), Chain of Command (Planet Asia & Gold Chain Military) and a variety of mixtapes.

Planet Asia's first single from the album is titled "Classical Music" and will hit stores and radio outlets nationwide on Friday (November 19th).
