New video single from Timeless Truths‘ last album, Rock-it Science. The track’s production is done by EL RTNC. The track has that typical NY flair and demeanor to it. I have the album but need to give it another listen. It’s been a minute. In the meantime…enjoy.
Bishop Nehru – Exhale (ft. Que Hampton) (Video)
First off, these guys make me feel really old simply from the fact of how young they are. But Bishop Nehru and Que Hampton have got the formula right for dropping some dope hip hop music. I enjoy this cut and the verse that play off one another. I think I shunned Nehru before because I just didn’t think someone so young could be so ill. I’ll blame that on my ignorance.
This song is off of Nahru’s album, strictlyFLOWz, which I am going to have to check out now.
R.A. the Rugged Man – Sam Peckinpah (ft. Vinnie Paz x Sadat X) (Video)
Beware of any secret underground viewing chambers for any hip hop videos. It may lead you to engage in some disturbing and violent acts as is the case with R.A. The Rugged Man’s video for Sam Peckinpah which features Vinnie Paz. This is very near to some Clockwork Orange shit. R.A.’s new album, Legends Never Die, has been out for some time so make sure you scoop it up.
Swinn Da Example – Get It Right (Video)
Dee Metto put me on to this artist he had done some production for, Swinn Da Example. I had never heard of him previously, so I didn’t know what to expect, but Metto’s cosign was all I needed to give it a chance. I started off by listening to his mixtape, Off Da Back Burnah. After the first few cuts from the album, I heard Swinn intermingling theology in his rhymes, which really accentuated his skills. It was intelligent design. But past track three of the mixtape I began to realize that this man was a devout Christian in addition to being an ill spitter. I was impressed. The man is convicted and has a powerful message to deliver which he does with exceptional skill over some boom bap beats. This track is all about getting right in this life and ready for the next. You need to do the most you can with your time here and stop slipping into your sinful ways. I, as a delinquent Christian, was pretty moved by the project. I think you should keep your minds open.
Single You Out: Rome Clientel – L.E.G.A.C.Y. (prod. by ATG)
Rome Clientel’s dropping one more single until the release of his third EP, The Empire 3: The Coronation. L.E.G.A.C.Y. is about being something more than just a flash-in-the-pan emcee. Rome is planning to build something a little more permanent for himself, his family, and his fans. This is a long term endeavor. The EP drops on Tuesday, so make some room in your hard drive. You won’t be disappointed.

Single You Out: Silent Someone – Lab 82 (ft. EL Da Sensei, Oktober Zero, and Shaz IllYork)
This is a release that has crept up on me because I don’t even know who Silent Someone is. But now I have a better idea after checking out this tight production. The somber vocal sample combined with those drums is a nice twist. I also like how the beat alternates every so often giving it a different sound and an appeal. Lyrically, Shaz Illyork, El Da Sensei, and Oktober Zero pay homage to the art of graffiti and do so properly.
Silent Someone’s new album, I Have Company is due any day so just keep your eyes peeled.
Single You Out: Gore Elohim (Non Phixion) – Children Of Doom (ft. Red Eye x Born Unique x Venom) (Prod by Beatahoe)
New single from Gore Elohim (formerly known as Goretex from Non Phixion) entitled Children Of Doom. The track features fellow heavy hitters Red Eye, Born Unique, and Venom. The Production comes to us courtesy of Beatahoe.
This is coming off of his new album, Electric Lucifer, which you can order from his website now. And as I understand it, this will be hitting all digital distributors on October 31st. I have yet to listen to the album but the reaction from those who have heard it has been extremely positive. If this track is any indication I would say it’s DAMN good.
Friday Feature: Printz of Peepz – Moments In Love Remix
Printz of Peepz is back for the 4th and final installment of his Friday Feature series. For the final track, he has elected to drop something totally different for the masses to contemplate. The song is called the Moments In Love Remix and is produced by Face Valyou. The cut is a re-rendering of an Art of Noise song circa ’82-83. It’s tracks like these that show an artists’ versatility. It was so different from the previous installments I was caught a little off guard. The BPM is at a fraction of the pace I have heard PoP spit on but once I got to the chorus I was sold on the vibe. This joint has a very ethereal sound to it as PoP contemplates love and those instance that conjure those ‘special’ feelings.
Remember if you are feeling Printz of Peepz music, follow him on Twitter, Facebook, and Soundcloud so you can stay current. I hope you all enjoyed these fresh sounds!
Alterbeats – Idol (ft. Bekay) (Video)
Alterbeats outdid himself with this production and Bekay was the perfect emcee to drop those lava rocks all across it. This is just one of those perfect combinations. The strings with the oriental flare over the crescendo of boom-bap flavor makes hip hop heads of all walks happy campers. Class Struggle is dropping in just a few days, so make sure you mark the calendar.
Single You Out: Little Vic – Speak No Evil
I absolutely love what Little Vic did with this beat! That guitar work is just awesome. I always think of Vic as that superlative rhymer and tend to forget that he has a knack for some dope production. This song is rapid fire and has Vic spitting flames once again. I am not sure if this is something that will surface on his album. If I know Vic, probably not. He’s prone for just dropping random sickness.
