Singles, Albums, EPs, Mixtapes, and Videos that get the HHD thumbs up.
First, what a great name for a song! Really great and fun concept throughout the cut’s execution. Emcee Alaska’s life changing advice in the form of rhyme grace a deliberate pace and soundscape set by producer Lang Vo.
“You could be the man with my plan for success…”
Life hacks from Words Hurt…pay attention and check out the complete project, Soul Music For The Soulless, which just dropped.
Here’s the second single from Rock Mecca’s forthcoming project, Ironworld, produced by Jake Palumbo. The track is distinctly different than the first single, Gladiator School. The vibe is a little trippier and spaced out which illustrates some of the diversity that we will hopefully see in the full project. Guest verses come courtesy of Vast Aire, Mach Hommy, and Kool Keith.
Ironworld is due out in December.
Here’s the new, new from Copenhagen’s finest hip hop artist, Sicknature. The beat is banging and the rhymes are raw. This track will be found on the new project, Copenhagen Kaiju, which is due out this coming Friday if I am not mistaken.
I’ve been waiting for some new Solo For Dolo material to make it to me and here we have it the form of his new album, Last Call For Apathy. The track Powdered Toazt Man has an understated funkiness to it. And Solo For Dolo, may not have been someone on your radar before, but he should be a rather large blip at this point. This guy has flow for days and I can point you to several projects that indicate that over the years, but why don’t you just check this song and then his most current album offering.
Here’s some new hype music from John Jigg$. The production from DJ Six3one is uptempo and almost feels like something you could hear at club. I can definitely see this song rocking a party or something to get your evening going.
Jigg$ has a natural ease about him when he rocks the mic. Everything just meshes perfectly in his flow and when mixed with the production, it makes this track a high energy endeavor.
This post is a week late in the making from producer Jon Glass’ weekly series. And to be honest, I don’t follow weekly series such as this because I have a hard time keeping up, but this one features favorite M-Dot. So we definitely have to share. Glass utilizes a jazzy piano loop, a soulful vocal sample, and some snapping drums for M-Dot to flip on. And the emcee, goes over the history and formula of separating himself from the pack as an artist. It doesn’t take you long to figure out why.
I hope that Jon Glass makes this series available fo purchase at some point because I would like to hear it in it’s entirety.
Twin Eagles is the combination of Sycksyllables and Dephchyld and they really bring their A-Game with this new track entitled, Godflow. And of coarse you add dope production from C-Lance and guest bars from Ras Kass isn’t going to hurt the cause. Very hypnotic production with strong lyrical fortitude is always going to equal a win.
Be on the lookout for more from Twin Eagles…I believe they may have an album dropping on December 7th if the research is right.
Producer Kyo Itachi unites with the prolific emcee, Tha Soloist to form the Invincible Mask for this new track Highs & Lows. It’s coming off their forthcoming Boom Bap Bigelow. The track has almost a western vibe to an it will definitely get infused in your mindframe.
Stay tuned!
New video out from the man Saipher Soze and his accomplice, Finn. It’s lifted off of Soze’s latest album, God Body. It’s one part jazzy boom-bap, and two parts that hardbody hip hop. It’s artists like this that keep it moving and in turn keep hip hop alive.
It’s been a long time since I have featured from music from the artist Famoso, but he just released a project called, Tales From Tha’ Dopeside, and he needs to be represented again. The project is eleven tracks long and they are ALL bangers.
Burgundy Clouds features the one and only Spit Gemz so I selected this track as the feature from the album. And while this track is a few years old, these guys show great chemistry and unleash a fury of wordplay over production from Alterbeats.
Check the project! You won’t regret it!
