Apollo Brown and Bronze Nazareth announce new studio album “Funeral For A Dream” plus drop their first single “Lemon Glue”
“Once I realized there isn’t a table for me to sit at, I decided I’d have to build my own.” That quote from financial powerhouse Suneera Madhani didn’t just resonate with Detroit’s Bronze Nazareth. It lit a fire. After reading it in an interview, he printed it out and pinned it to the wall of his studio. That line became the seed for “Lemon Glue,” a blistering head-nodder produced by the iconic Apollo Brown and the first single from the upcoming album Funeral For A Dream, out July 25, 2025.
Apollo delivers thunderous, soul-splitting drums beneath a haunting loop that sounds like it was lifted straight from the attic of a long-abandoned bando. It’s classic Apollo. Dusty, cinematic, raw, refined. The beat alone hits like every door ever closed on a dreamer.
Bronzeman meets it with some of his sharpest verses to date, blending poetry with lived experience. “Showed them how the quilt was sewn, no seat at the table for me, so I built a throne,” he spits, turning a lifetime of silence into something permanent. Brooklyn’s Eddie Kaine enters the third verse with precision. Focused. Measured. Unshakable. He adds just the right amount of edge to the track’s message of earned success.
“Lemon Glue” is mood music for the ones who built from nothing. No shortcuts, no applause. Just work. And now, it’s time to enjoy the win. Floating in an inner tube at the lakehouse, Lemon Glue strain in hand, while the rest of the world takes notice.
The Filth is home.

Apollo Brown and Bronze Nazareth – Funeral For A Dream
They say the death of a dream is the best funeral. It’s like saying goodbye to the dream itself, as the goal has been achieved. That moment where something imagined finally takes form, and in doing so, lays its old self to rest. Cue the procession music.
The obituary of Apollo Brown and Bronze Nazareth writes itself. This is a bond, a brotherhood, a friendship carved over nearly four decades. Two kids from the same neighborhood, raised by the same blocks, breathing the same grit. In their teens, they began the journey side by side. Beats, rhymes, the need to speak something real.
Life moved. Time pulled. They built their names in separate spaces, each finding success in places they hadn’t pictured. Inside the music. Outside the music. But the thread stayed strong. And now, after years of chapters, of wins and losses and long silences, the dream they both held finally lives. And because it lives, it can be buried.
For years, people asked for this. Waited on it. Needed it. Here it is.
Funeral For A Dream is out Friday 25th July – https://ffm.to/funeralforadream
