M1 of critically acclaimed group Dead Prez is here with his new video for the single "KILLING IT". This is his first single from his highly anticipated upcoming album Between Me and The World, which will be released May 9th.

The collaboration is with Italian producer Bonnot, who will be producing the entire album for M1.

“Although the lyrical potency of this project can't be denied, it's really an introduction to the production world of M1 and Bonnot,” said M1. “This is the world that invented the "TrapHall" sound found on ‘KILLING IT’ ft Jahdan Blakkamoore. In today's political circus Between Me and the World makes sense. Free your mind and your ass will follow and maybe even dance!”

Walter Buonanno aka Bonnot is a multi-award-winning composer, producer, multi-talented musician and DJ. He's won awards like the important S.I.A.E. prize as “The Best Italian Independent Composer” when he was only 22 and continues to be one of the most sought after producers in Europe. For the past 10 years he’s consistently

toured in the Hip-hop & Jungle / Drum 'n bass scenes while reaching the Top Ten charts, and his refined style has helped him perform alongside General Levy, Assalti Frontali and he also collaborated with the Top Jazz trumpet player Paolo Fresu.
