Note:

This is a collection of tracks assembled by SGT Over as a sampler of his material before his next album, Precious Jewels drops on November 13th. I have been a big fan of the Dead Poet Society member ever since I heard their self-titled EP. In my mind, his music keeps getting better and better with time.

64 Bar Assassin, Heartless, and Game Of Death are some of my favorites on a project full of bangers. You are going to like this!

Single You Out: Outerspace – Manolo

New joint from the duo known as Outerspace. The production can be credited to Stu Bangas. This is the type of joint you have come to expect from the pair. They consistently rock over banging production with edgy, street tested rhyme schemes.

Double A.B. and Dub Sonata – Children Of The Night (Video)

Another video off of the Media Shower project. This is also one of three dope story telling cuts off of that album. This story pertains to a man who hits his girl and the revenge that ensues. Double A.B. is one of the most apt emcees to tell a tale. Check the album to hear more if you feel you deserve it.

Single You Out: Apollo The Great – Above The Sky (Prod. Willie B)

Apollo The Great released this Willie B produced joint as a precursor to his forthcoming, Hennessy Diaries project which is slated to drop later this month. This song combines that favored hip hop appeal with your local pianist, because the keys that Willie B provides certainly moves the crowd! Both emcee and producer inject much needed flavor into the game. Enjoy…

Koncept – Watch The Sky Fall (ft. Royce da 5’9) (Video)

This is the latest installment of videos from Koncept’s Awaken album that was released late last year. It’s probably one of the more popular tracks tracks as it’s hard to go wrong with a guest verse from Royce da 5’9 and a beat from Marco Polo.

The video is a concept that has most recently been used by Ras Kass where young ladies play the roles of the hip hop artists who perform the song.

Single You Out: Grieves – Super Scary Monsters (ft. Prof)

Grieves and Prof have so much charisma on this track. They dropped this Halloween preamble a couple of days ago and it’s definitely something you can play well into and after the witching hour. Really fun, playful, and all around dope.

Classified – Anything Goes (ft. Skratch Bastid & Sauktrates) (Video)

Aside from being dope, the other word that comes to my mind when discussing Classified’s music is polished. The man never lets anything less than stellar leave the lab. It’s that professionalism that sets him apart from the throngs of emcees. That and exceptionally clever wordplay. That helps too. He’s supposed to be dropping an album at the top of 2013.

Single You Out: CuzOH! Black – A Graphic Ending

CuzOH! Black is a prime time emcee waiting in the wings no longer. I’ve long been a fan of his style and am excited to see what direction he will take his next project, Everybody’s Favorite Cousin. I am loving this cut! The synth keys and the drums make this joint memorable. At least that along with out emcee’s flow…

I am sending you to DJ Booth for a listen and a rating.

Rome Clientel – The Empire 2: The Battlegrounds (2012)

Artist: Rome Clientel

Album: The Empire 2: The Battlegrounds

Source: DharmicX

Traclisting:

1. The Glass House
2. Free
3. The Crisis
4. Gone Too Long (ft. Devon Wright)
5. Chips Fall
6. My Inner War
7. Betta Luv Em’
8. You Want War
9. One Life To Live (ft. Reks)
10. Troubled Child

Note:

Rome Clientel’s art is a demonstration of what is good with hip hop right now. With his new project, The Empire 2: The Battlegrounds EP, Rome Clientel takes big beats and grimy bars up-a-notch. Thus giving you Golden Era flavor with new school flow and vocabulary. The intangibles (ie his baritone voice) are an asset that can’t be ignored.

The Black Opera – Balcony (Behind The Seen) (Video)

These men can not be silenced, and after hearing their music, who would want them to be? Not hip hop fans. Libretto: Of King Legend is their third project to drop by my count as they continue to drop amazing music. You should click the link and pick that up today!
