Singles, Albums, EPs, Mixtapes, and Videos that get the HHD thumbs up.
Dark Lo and V Don have a project on their hands by the name of Charlie Pope, which is out now, and this is I think the third single off the project. Lo has probably the most distinctive flow in the game, and that distinction is couple with Don’s unique and dynamic production stylings. You can hear that union of distinction on this track. I ran through the project, and I thought it banged hard throughout, and each song was pretty damn stong.
I can easily recommend it.
Very few have been as prolific as The Bad Seed has been in the last couple of years, but yet somehow that just gets discounted. This man is a beast on the mic! I’ve been listening to him since you could only find his music on 12″, and he is just getting better as the years go on!
Here he demonstrates that high skill level over a beat from none other than the Snowgoons! That’s a match made in heaven in my mind. Those subtle strings and that voice/flow sound like destiny. The results are dope and this is a precursur to the new album, ALPHA which I hope will make it’s way to us soon!
LoDeck and Boxguts link up under the pseudonym, Freestyle Cologne. And they just released a project entitled, L’eau de Guts. This was a single that popped up in my inbox, and Lay Still, while short, packs a nice punch. The Golden Godz laced a heater with a distinct, but not overbearing sound, making me want to hear more of the album.
This is my favorite track off of Snotty’s recently released, and Don Carrera produced, Other Side Of The Wall. Mickey Diamond joins him on 99 Acura, and these voices and flows slice through the piano riff and production. There is beauty in simplicty and these guys make less-is-more sound glorious.
I am going to be checking hard for Snotty’s material. I backtracked a little bit to check out some of his older material, and he’s got a nice flow.
Tones and DJ Matty Lite let loose a free track which I am going to go ahead and say is an extension of their latest EP, Sacred. And someone seems to be bearing the brunt of these bars from our emcee. These are some tough shots over some sinister production, And then you got Tone Spliff executing these scratches, making this song the complete deal.
Q-Unique is back with a brand new video and song. He gets personal and introspective over a piano driven track that delves into the capacity of what a man can take in his life. Dope track. Dope hook. I always feel the intensity of emotion from Q-Unique.
Lord Juco teams up with Daniel Son to rock over some mellow, yet jazzy production from FInn. Just all around dope flows and music.
Juco and Finn have a bigger project in the works so stay tuned for that.
Yep….new Starvin B’ is on deck and this man is a beast on the microphone! He spits fire over this thriller from Vic Grimes, differentiating himself quite easilty from the competition.

Damn. Damn. He has such an ill flow. And you can hear so much more off of his new album, Get Well Soon.
Rome Streetz and Futurewave link up for another album that I am anxious ot hear in the Razor’s Edge. Physicals went available to purchase yesterday, and next week streaming begins. I may just have to cop a CD to get the digi. I don’t think i can wait a week to listen.
Rome Streetz has an elite flow and Futurewave has composed some of the illest records of the last, let’s say, three years. This particular cut delves into the choices that are made on the street. Do you keep it on the stright and narrow, or do you make moves to make money?
Don’t sleep!
Skanks unleashes some block brutality with the help of U.G. for his new single, Burn It Down. When you listen to The Rap Martyr get on a tear, it becomes quite apparent that you don’t want to be in the way of this man’s path. He will shame you out of existence with these bars. And this production is nice, not sure who is behind it, but the vocal sample rounds it all together nicely.
Don’t forget to peep the new album, M.O.S.T (Minister of Severe Torture).
