In conjunction with the project, they have released a new album called By Every Means Necessary, a dramatic score of drumbreaks and strings, layers of melody and calls for revolution of the spirit. This is a Prince Paul project minus the humor we\u2019ve come to expect, replaced with a driving sense of musicality and seriousness. We chat a bit about their journey and what it was like to be a part of the documentary and finally have these songs out in full-length form. As a tribute to Malcolm too, as they wanted to put this out on what would\u2019ve been his 95th birthday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Prince Paul and Don Newkirk | Bedroom Beethovens [ep 74]\" width=\"1104\" height=\"621\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/y-XKiM4217Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Legendary producer Prince Paul, and his longterm collaborator Don Newkirk, who had a longtime presence with Bernie Worrell and Def Jam, as heard on De La Soul\u2019s 3 Feet High and Rising, have joined forces again to score the docuseries Who Killed Malcolm X.
