Singles, Albums, EPs, Mixtapes, and Videos that get the HHD thumbs up.
New music from K-Hill who we don’t hear from all that often, but is both seasoned and talented emcee that we have featured before. The self-produced track has a very “Pete Rock-esque” vibe to it with jazzy horns and a melodic tone. Hill is joined by emcees, Chant and V8ga for some slick rhymes over this smooth beat. Enjoy.
Alright, I know you have heard this new joint from Conway featuring the team Benny The Butcher and Westside Gunn, but it bears a post, because it is on some extended play dope. This production from Daringer is crazy and film scorable, which lets our emcees bring it to a cinematic scale.
You can hear this track off of Conway’s new album, God Don’t Make Mistakes, which is out now!
Waterr is a fan favorite here on HHD, and he crafts yet another piece of beautiful music, with his collaboration with Tone Beatz on the track Saviour’s Day, and the album Order Of The Day: Return Of The Cherry Tree. This song, and the album as a whole has a very “jazz club” vibe to it. Like Waterr is sitting by Tone Beatz piano in a smoke filled room and dropping these life bars on you.
New music from Midaz The Beast, and this time backed by the strength of Sherm Larock of whom I am a big fan. This joint is a straight banger, and being that it’s been out for a few weeks, you are all missing out. LaRock has got those drums, bells, and an ominous “war” vocal sample, while Midaz has razor sharp bars to sever heads. This is one of my favorite joints so far in this early year.
POUNDS drops a really dope joint as lyrically he tries to keep his relationship on track. And surely this song will resonate with a lot a listeners here. We’ve all been in love and had to navigate through pain and hurt. And not sure who produced the track, but I love the feel and vibe.
It’s been a looooooooong minute since we have heard some music from Double A.B., but we don’t forget good music around these parts. This emcee has bars and has made some great music, and is apparently STILL making great music.
All G, has a mellow vibe with the twangy guitar taking front and center of the production by long time collaborator, Dub Sonata. And that chill vibe, is the perfect segue for Double A.B. to introduce, or reintroduce himself to fans. Rapping alongside our featured emcee, is A.L., who also drops a dope sixteen.
His new album, Devils & Drugs, drops on April 18th, so stay tuned for that.
New music from The Umbrella as Snotty releases the BriskFingaz produced track, Gettin Bacc. Over an eerie orchestration, Snotty delivers the message that he is coming for his in 2022 and heads better pay attention.
Tones is someone I am keeping an eye out for lately. He had a dope project out last year with DJ Matty Lite called Sacred. That’s something you should check out by the way. And here, with producer Pazi, you get more of that fire and energy, served up with a healthy dope of boom bap. Love the lyricism, production, and scratches. You should too!
Casual and Dead Perry released their album, The Art Of Reanimation, yesterday. And including this track, Run For Cover, every song has been flames. Like the other songs, I have heard and we have showcased, there is a certain darkness that comes along with listening to this album. There is also very much a horror core vibe with the visual. The track features, Celph Titled, J-Spliff, and Daniel Son on the chorus. All in all, it’s a little demented and a lot dope.
Thirstin Howl III is back with a new cut, Crime Lords, featuring Sticky Fingaz and Richie Balance. This guy is an underground legend in my mind. I was copping his CDs whenever I found them 20 years ago. He has a unique flow and voice that you can detect instantly and here he couples that another unique talent, Sticky Fingaz. This has an old school vibe to it, that listens quite refreshingly. Enjoy!
