Neek the Exotic & Large Professor “ Still on Hustle” 15 Year Anniversary

Neek the Exotic + Large Professor — Still on the Hustle

Some journeys in Hip-Hop are measured not in years, but in the records, relationships, and stories that survive the test of time.

This journey began on May 19, 1992, with the Golden Era classic “Fakin’ the Funk,” featured on the White Men Can’t Jump soundtrack. Neek the Exotic and Large Professor established a chemistry on the mic that captured the essence of Hip-Hop—raw, authentic, lyrical, and unmistakably New York.

Nearly two decades later, that chemistry evolved into something deeper.

In 2011, Neek the Exotic and Large Professor joined forces for Still on the Hustle, a true Hip-Hop testament built on hardcore bars and heavyweight production. The project brought together a remarkable circle of talent, including production from Carnage from Flushing, Marco Polo, and Lord Finesse, with Joell Ortiz adding his voice to the roaring street anthem “Street Rebel.”

Still on the Hustle represents the kind of Hip-Hop that does not chase a moment—it documents one. It is rooted in lyricism, craftsmanship, and the enduring connection between MC and producer.

From the opening title track to “New York,” “Guess Who,” “Street Rebel,” “Hip Hop,” and “Toast Tonite,” the album carries the spirit of a culture built on originality and staying true to your own line.

The official release date for Neek the Exotic + Large Professor — Still on the Hustle is October 30, 2026.
