Mr. Porter steps out of the shadows & is back with a vengeance.

We haven't heard much from Mr. Porter since his 2016 release Connect, but the former D12 member is back on the scene. He's produced for a number of artists including Snoop Dogg, Jadakiss, 50 Cent, and Method Man, and Friday he dropped the visual to his fire single "Incredible."

The Detroit-by-way-of-North-Carolina rapper shared insight as to why he's been M.I.A. for the last few years. "My time away from music wasn’t so much ‘falling back’, but I just really felt clear in my desire to refocus,” Mr. Porter told HipHopDX. “During the past couple of years, I was executive producing Book of Ryan with Royce [Da 5’9], and then Eminem’s Revival and Kamikaze were back-to-back projects.

“The tour also was happening," he continued. "So it was more like I was just not sitting down and doing something I knew in my heart I needed to be doing. I’ve got too much talent to not even put my best foot forward. I’m finally moving with no second-guessing and no hesitant thoughts, just pure excitement."

Quotable Lyrics

Leave 'em slump like a sunflower
You got ran off of your block
We used to run ours
But that was back when I pumped powder out of Trump Tower
