I am surprised more people haven’t picked up on this cut and the album for that matter. It’s pretty fresh. This cut is from KNOiota’s new album Kno Now Or Never.
Single You Out: Memphis Reigns – Gluesticks
It’s an honor and a privilege to be able to bring to you the next single from the man who bears the monniker, Memphis Reigns. The super talented artist dropped off, Gluesticks, which is the lead single to his forthcoming project, The Barangay Captain EP. The joint is produced by Piloophaz of the Skyzominus Crew.
As an emcee, Memphis Reigns never misses a beat…I mean that literally and figuratively. I hope you all enjoy!

Single You Out: Big O – Not Depending On None (prod. by 4th Disciple)
New single from Big O from his upcoming album, Gravel Engagement which will be completely produced by 4th Assassin. This is type of grittiness I am expecting from this project.

Shabaam Sahdeeq & Eddie B – Futuristic Ft. Smoke DZA (Video)
This joint is top choice in my book. I talked about the music before when I briefly reviewed the single, but it begs repeating how dope this beat is and how each emcee puts in the necessary work to make it memorable. I can’t wait to hear Wolves in it’s entirety.
Heddshotts – Heddshotts Militia (Video)
This Heddshotts crew is no joke. Anyone who flips Carl Orff’s “O, Fortuna!” gets massive props. These guys have that raw uncut hip hop that I look for, so if you are looking fur unadulterated dopeness look no further. You can cop their album on iTunes.
Single You Out: Al-One – Fresh In The Flesh (ft. Sly Boogy)

Note:
Our reigning champ, M-Dot, shot this project over to me many moons ago, while he has been galavanting around Europe on tour with the likes of that group you may have heard of,…Slaughterhouse. Unfortunately it has taken me this long to get to do a write up on the project. Really, Layer Cake, is a collection of guest spots, features, and rarities that M-Dot has put out or been a part of in the last 12 months. While it isn’t an album, there are plenty of dope tracks collected together worth talking about.
Single You Out: Pause Beats – Walk With The Lions (ft. Torae, Chaundon, M-Dot, and Dominique Larue)
Murderous. Simply murderous. Pause Beats, I don’t know who you are or where you come from, but this my friend is a winner. Superb production. The emcees know a dope beat when they hear one and kill it…

Single You Out: Tenacity – I Don’t Get Them (ft. Gameboi)
Finally a good hip hop song in my inbox. I can always rely on the BBAS fam to cheer me up with some new music. Tenacity and Gameboi join forces with J57 who once again laces a beat that really is heads and tails above industry standards.
Apparently, Tenacity and J57 have an EP coming out this summer. Cheers to that!
