Here are the latest, and may I say, dopest visuals from the Charles Workman album. The video puts this song in a new light for me. Make sure you check out the album if you have not already.
Interview: Devine Carama (2012)
I am honored and privileged to bring you guys the thoughts of criminally slept on artist, Devine Carama. I was listening to his latest album, Heart Of A King, and I thought that the album was so insightful and different that I wanted to see if I could get him to elaborate on some items through an interview of some sort. Lucky enough for us all, he obliged.
Be sure to cop both his albums, Blood Of A Slave and Heart Of A King at your earliest and support good music.
Single You Out: Slangston Hughes – Sneaux Flow (ft. Jakie Skelz)
This track has been sitting in the inbox for a while so please forgive me. Slangston Hughes and Jakie Skellz drops some tightly comprised bars over smooth, yet bluesy, Prospek production. This is another camp who consistently drops nice gems. I am just too slow. For now you may enjoy the flavor of New Orleans…
Infinite Marvelous – Illusions (Video)
A winner. Finally. After sifting through email after email of uninteresting material I find something new and fresh. First off, shout out to Janzoo on the production. This beat sounds like a cross between Celtic Folk and straight boom bap. I love what he did with that beat. Secondly, Infinite Marvelous really shows talent on the mic. He’s got a good voice and delivery. He also doesn’t give you same ol’, same ol’. It’s fresh.

Note:
In general I think people sleep heavily on the scene in the Pacific North West. But if the truth be told, that area is a hot bed for up and coming hip hop talent. Even though, Fatal Lucciauno has been in the game a minute people still may not know who he is but I think this is an album that should get the foot in the door or the music in the headphones as it were..
M-Phazes – What It’s All About (ft. Brown Bag AllStars)
Who wouldn’t want to go shopping with the Brown Bag AllStars? Visually they take you there. This tracks is off of M-Phazes’ Phazed Out remix lp from Coalmine Records.
Single You Out: The Audible Doctor – Success (Part 1) (ft. Chaundon x DJ Brace)
There are a lot of good producers out there. There’s no question about that. But for my money, my bets go with The Audible Doctor. The man just concocts brilliance. I love the soulful sample chopped up by DJ Brace and the tempo the good doctor takes with this track. It really meshes well with Chaundon’s flow.

Single You Out: Scoe7 – I’m Offical (prod. by illMEASURED)
I’m official…officially slipping folks. The homie illMEASURED hit me off with this track weeks ago and I kept on making promises I wasn’t keeping and in turn keeping dope music out of your iPods. For all of that, I apologize because this track is banging. The track as a whole is really dope, but iLLMEASURED really laces some old school boom bap production with precise cuts. Somebody right now is striking a B-Boy stance to this joint.
Red Eye – Definition Of Apeshit (ft. Infinity Gauntlet x Dov)
Infinity Gauntlet is an independent supergroup that made noise with their previous joint, Anti-Angelz. That joint was tough and I am glad to see them back together for another track. Definition Of Apeshit is on Red Eye’s upcoming album, St. Fatrick’s Day.

Homeboy Sandman always looks like the guy who would be the life of the party. Just fun music and entertaining videos.
