Dipset's 40 Cal Teams Up With Babygrande For Release Of Broken Safety 2 Dipset's battle tested affiliate, 40 Cal, has teamed up with indie powerhouse, Babygrande, for the release of Broken Safety 2.
Dubbed "Mr. Rewind That" -- a moniker given to him for his hard hitting rhymes and quick witted metaphors forcing fans, DJs, and foes alike to rewind -- has gained the Dip member a strong street following. He plans to continue the ride again and again, continuing to expand the Dipset brand.
"The motto this year is I do it, I did it and I do it again," says 40 Cal. "This brand is here and it ain't goin' no where. Diplomats is more than a label, we like blood."
The album features cameos from the entire Dipset family, including heavy-hitters Jim Jones, Cam'ron, Juelz Santana, Hell Rell, and JR Writer, along with superstar Akon, amongst others.
As a Dipset member, 40 has waited for the time when he could step up and out on his own. In the interim, 40's heavy following having amassed street based mixtape sales of 50,000+ units.
Before gaining the fanbase, 40 was introduced as a featured artist on The Diplomats' Diplomatic Immunity II along with highly coveted appearances on the Dipset crew's More Than Music Vol. 1 and The Movement Moves On, both of which have been certified gold.
Battle rap enthusiasts, however, have seen 40 face-off against Cardi, Sam Scarfo, and even himself in the now notorious episodes of MTV's "Fight Klub." Those led to a now legendary battle with Def Jam's Scarfo, who had amassed a stretch of victories until 40 stole his crown.
Broken Safety 2 is slated to drop May 22.
