Relaunching after some years in the abyss, the acclaimed Okayplayer Records, home to some of the most revered acts in Hip Hop history makes its long awaited return to business. Much like the label's own rise from the ashes, South Carolina rapper Danny Swain - or Danny! - embarks on his comeback of sorts, with his new album released through the OKP label. The spirited and animated rapper/producer has had more than his fair share of musical obstacles and industry politics to hinder his progression. But after much grafting and co-signs from The Roots' stickman Questlove and the empirical Jay-Z, Swain's Payback LP carries extra momentum upon its release.
