Bishop Nehru Announces Collaborative Project With DOOM

Bishop Nehru has more bragging rights than most up-and-coming rappers -- and he's only 16 years old. Fresh off the release of his 'strictlyFLOWZ' mixtape, which was hosted by Hot 97's Peter Rosenberg and BBC Radio 1Xtra's DJ Semtex, the New York kid has announced a collaborative project with seminal underground figure DOOM (formerly MF DOOM).

How did this surprise partnership come about, you ask? Young Bishop supported the masked man, as well as Ghostface Killah, at a show in London in April, so it's likely the pair chopped it up (and then some, apparently) back then. The as-yet-untitled project will be released through Lex Records (to which Nehru just signed) and Noizy Cricket.
