Singles, Albums, EPs, Mixtapes, and Videos that get the HHD thumbs up.
Here’s the lead single from Dr. Quandary’s forthcoming album, Jukebox Buddah. It features the ever-praiseworthy Premrock and Elder Orange who is on the chorus. The production from Quandary is pretty damn sophisticated with the layers of guitar samples. Very intricate, yet a slick listen.
You should enjoy this! The album drops on October 27th.
I didn’t know it was dropping before a couple of days ago but Starvin’ B has a new album produced by One-Take, Digital Jungle. It is out RIGHT NOW. So if you love Starvin’ B material, this is for sure a must cop. You can here a sample of fire with the lead single here, Ironworkers.
He has never let me down.
This song from Awful P with production from Conflikt of Hellzwind really does go! This flow is all types of ferocious, and I am almost positive if I was to search my iTunes, I would find some Awful P features in there somewhere. And Conflikt may not be a household name, but he’s skilled at crafting these bangers.
This is off of a forthcoming project entitled, The Boombaptism. You should all prepare for that!
Here’s some headnod shit from Meyhem Lauren and DJ Muggs’ forthcoming album, Gems From The Equinox. And, for real, Lauren sounds crisper than ever on this cut! And this production and pairing really suit Roc Marciano as well. Dope first single should build great anticipation for the album dropping in a couple of weeks.
This is the lead single given the video treatment from Dillon and Diamond D’s joint venture, Black Tie Affair. The duo get formal for this video as the skills and production remain smooth.
Be are to peep the project!
Ant-Hero is the title track from Slaine and Termanology’s album. It is also the toughest track in an album FULL of them. The album itself is ominous and filled with darkness which makes it one of my personal favorites this year. This track has got some gritty production form none other than DJ Premier and guest spots from Bun B and Everlast.
Sure shot!
Shabaam Sahdeeq links up with Planet Asia and Milano Constantine for this single off of DotGoIt.com’s forthcoming 10th Anniversary Mixtape. First off, this track is that fire that stalks you down a dark alley and then throttles your eardrums. The styles of each emcee are really complimentary over this DJ Ready Cee production.
Secondly, huge shout out to DotGotIt!. I think moreso than another blog, they have delivered rawness at an incredibly consistent pace. They haver personally put me on to many dope artists and projects that I may have never checked for. And truly that’s the purpose of what we should be doing. We are not necessarily taste makers, we are just making fans more aware of what’s out there. 10 Years in the game…congratulations!
More Starvin B’? Yes sir! I honestly can’t get enough of his music. This track has a grimy yet haunting vibe to it, while Starvin’ kills it yet again bar by bar. I just need another album at this point. Production comes courtesy of Eyedee.
There are no shortage of dope songs off of M-Dot’s album, egO anD The eneMy. But there are also no shortage of powerful songs either, and that’s what we have here with M-Dot’s latest video single, Chrissy.
M-Dot narrates the story of young woman’s life that goes spiraling out of control to a very tragic ending. It’s a difficult story to watch for some, because someone you know may have wrong-routed like this. It’s deep and personal and sure to heighten emotion.
Oh these guys are dropping it heavy! Reef, Planet Asia, and Skrewtape are firing off heat rocks that your iTunes may not be able to handle. These flows are intense with both delivery and content and the beat from Bear One is just a little vicious. Enjoy this!
