Serengeti has new ep coming out this March called "Kenny Dennis" via Anticon. He recently unveiled the first single from the ep, a track called "Shazam".

For those who don’t know the back story, Kenny Dennis (Kdz) and Tha Grimm Teachaz were signed to Jive Records in ’93. After a Teachaz performance at the label’s showcase in Philly (other performers included the Fu-Schnickens and Tevin Campbell), Shaq-Fu got brazen and mocked Kenny’s mustache live on-stage.

So I do check it out and you can too.
