Sean Price passed away in August of last year, but his music will never die. West Coast OG Planet Asia keep the late MC's voice alive with his latest cut "The Festival" from the upcoming Seventy Nine project from Asia and producer DJ Concept.

P kicks things off with a verse that includes his trademark deliberate delivery, aggressive flow and witty lyrics like, "Black on black crime/I get Afrocentric." After cuts from Sweden's DJ Devastate, Planet Asia delivers a verse that will have people slam dancing at the festival. Concept's haunting instrumental turns into a melancholy piano riff as audio from a police shooting serves as the song's disturbing outro.

Seventy Nine is due out March 25.

Price died in his sleep on Aug. 8, 2015 at the age of 43. In the days following his death, the hip-hop community showed its love and appreciation of the rapper in the form of social media posts, video tributes, touching eulogies, concerts and unreleased music. Duck Down Music started a fundraiser for Ruck's family and over $90,000 has been raised. Both Eminem and Jay Z made significant donations to the cause and Tek from Smif-N-Wessun thanked Hov on Instagram and called him a "classy guy." His album, Songs in the Key of Pricewas released two weeks after his passing and contained 30 tracks.
