about

Queens by way of Detroit emcee/poet, Motown Priest returns with his powerful new single, “Farewell to Welfare.” Through the duration of the track, Priest attempts to unpack the song’s central question and refrain: “How much is a dollar worth?” Backed by equally menacing production, MP uses his incredible lyricism to detail the different and sometimes-brutal ways that people try to escape poverty.

"Farewell to Welfare" is available now Motown Priest’s new album, Hawthorne, set for release on vinyl in an emerald green color configuration via Get On Down on April 7th, with the digital release planned for an April 14th release, all courtesy of O’s Circle in partnership with Brick Records. A short film of the same title—which serves as Priest’s directorial debut—is set to drop the following Friday, April 21st, and utilizes several of the album cuts as the film’s soundtrack.
