Listen as XL The Beast addresses alcoholism, drug addiction, and inner demons with a new single “Wreckage Of My Past” featuring Slaine of La Coka Nostra.

Both Massachusetts emcees have a long history of friendship and have worked with each other numerous times over the last two decades. This most recent collaboration was originally recorded over a different track where Slaine was too intoxicated and slurring his words. After he got sober and reevaluated the song, it was clear that the verse shouldn’t be released. Wreckage Of My Past is produced by The Arcitype and was originally recorded and intended for Slaine’s “One Day” LP but he struggled to create a chorus and finish it. Once XL heard the unfinished song and concept, he vigorously came up with the hook and compelling second verse. “Its a fearless moral inventory of our lives as alcoholics. The brutal truth from us about us, about who we once were and the damage and chaos we left behind” says XL. Check it out now on your preferred digital streaming provider.
