"One For The Money" is also set to appear on Coalmine Records highly anticipated compilation album Unearthed, which is scheduled for an early second quarter release, 2013.Unearthed will feature guest appearances from the likes of Pharoahe Monch, Blu, Large Professor, Kool G Rap, Sean Price, Rock (of Heltah Skeltah) Artifacts, Apathy, Celph Titled, Torae and more.
