- The upcoming REKS album, 'The Greatest X', (pronounced The Greatest Unknown) is dropping September 9th, 2016 on Brick Records.
"Jump Shots" is a song that articulates in depth the idea made famous by Biggie Smalls, "either your slingin' crack rock or you got a wicked jump shot." Over an infectious head-nodder from Buckwild, assisted by a flawless cuts from Statik Selektah, REKS describes the limited options available to ghetto youth and the parallels between b-ball and hip hop. A die-hard Boston Celtics fan, REKS states, "I actually grew up idolizing the Bad Boys Isiah Thomas on the ball court. His grittiness and fearlessness was admirable."
"Jump Shots" comes just in time as The NBA Finals are now in full swing. REKS won't root for any team other than his beloved Celtics these days, but he is enjoying the shootout between Steph Curry and Lebron James. "Jump Shots" is the fourth release from 'The Greatest X'.
The video was directed by The Sultan

From the concept, substance, to the beat, and cuts!! Everything, and everyone compliments each other..Great summer time joint!! Classic Material Alllll day! Salute!
Reks killed it and I also appreciate it that the video kept a true Hip-Hop vibe to it, unlike that mainstream trash on TV.

Awww damn how have I not heard this. Buck, Reks and Statik on a track = flames

Buckwild always in his prime. Statik is at the top of his game right now, and seeing this video and what a killa Reks is on da mic makes me believe hip-hop is making a comeback! bout 2 shut down all that wack ass shit!
Anx1o wooord
this joint right here is phenomenal!
Dope track, hope it drops on Spotify soon.
that beat HAAARD AF! + REKS flow?!?!? what else can you ask for???
this track = goosebumps
This track is butter. I read some of these comments. People saying "I miss this kind of rap" or real Hip-hop making a comeback". Where the fuck yall been? True Hip-Hop never left. If you listening to the radio bullshit then that explains it.
We love you Reks....
nice! keep going! remember hearing Reks on tha Home Boston Underground CD.
As my childhood was, thx 4 these powerfull beat
Straight fire. Real hip hop didn't die, it just returned underground for a bit.
...my bad, The Sultan gets major props on the well executed visuals to bring it full circle. Dope!
Incredible. Big supporter of Reks over the years. He's always dropping official joints and has firmly cemented himself in the history books. Buckwild is a legend. Statik is always a good look. Respect...
always 🔥🔥
Reks so underrated, this is fire
beats dope kinda sounds like an alchemist beat ..THis IS hip Hop
Produced by the legendary monster on the boards BUCKWILD!

This beat is so dope! Buckwild bringin back the 90s grimy sound!! Real hip hop
keep it real in 2016 is hard big up from greece !
Damn. reks flow is so ill. especially considering how many artists there are now that put so much effort into how their voice sounds and what seems like none into their lyrics. think first time i heard reks was in '01. guys been around for a long time.
Dope!
Decades in a track. Instant classic
Buck still going crazy on the boards! I can almost tell when I'm hearing one of his joints. REKS nasty as always.
Peace. This is super special REKS! ...wow!
Real Hip hops still around .. it's right here 💯
Left handed turn around fade away is my wicked jumpshot.
Fire. REKS always consistent!
What a track this is. Masterful execution.
This sound make me cry 😢💖 one love bro
I haven't heard Reks in a while, but every time I do he definitely has something to impress! Respect
Yo Buckwild definately dropped a modern day classic production after all these years...
I didn't expect even Buck the great to be capable/willing to use that 90s Boom Bap production technique like this, with the spacey sound effects like he used on Kool Keith's '95 track back in the day, but apparently legendary producers are capable of crafting traditional productions if they feel so inclined. Keep it up Buck. We need Nineteen Ninety Now part 3!
Reks always nice.
THIS ONE OF THOSE TEAR IT UP BEATS,AN ALI OOP BEAT TO SHLAM!DUCK!
I said it 10 times if I said it once, Reks is wicked with a mic, this track is good, but rather mild to some of his catalog. He's one of my favorite ✌️
