Singles, Albums, EPs, Mixtapes, and Videos that get the HHD thumbs up.
One Dae is dropping some new music and I have rocking with him since the Fire For Hire Mixtapes. He’s always had a great flow and you can hear that in his new music as well. He hit us with a combo deal video single featuring songs Debut and No Daze Off.
These are off his new project Words As Weapons dropping later this year. As soon as I have a solid release date I will surely post it.
Highlighting another dope project that just released a couple of days ago, SageInfinite and Won87’s Sleeper Cell. The project is a gritty one the details an assortment of terrorist incidents, policies, and restrictions on personal freedoms. I think it’s a poignant piece of work implemented with a maximum amount of dope. Certainly, something you should all check out.
The track N.S.A. details how that very government entity has restricted our privacy and our freedoms. It is a bonus cut that closes out the project and my personal favorite. I hope you enjoy.
New video from one of two recently released Binary Star projects, LIGHTY. Saturn Rings Sad Turn Around is both jazzy and chill but still indefinitely hip-hop, which alas, the whole point. The overall sound of the song inebriates you almost, entrances you, but the scratching and lyricism from One Be Lo bring you back into sharp focus. An emcee, I don’t think you could name three emcees of a higher caliber when it comes to wordplay. One Be Lo is amongst my favorites.
This song is lifted from the recently released project, Fuck You, from OnlyOne. The project is an unabashed, in your face, and raw hip-hop release, not meant for the faint of heart. The entire project is produced by SmokeM2D6 and he outdoes himself with this track right here. The guitar-driven joint is purposeful and the perfect platform for OnlyOne to deliver his bars.
It’s all about sharing with you all the illness that I come across on my internet excursions and one thing I know from previous experience is that Jarren Benton and Spittzwell are a good combination. Their previous body of work, Luke P EP, had some serious illness. And when I got an email notification that they had a new project, I jumped at the opportunity to listen. It does not disappoint. The album is called The Mink Coat Killa LP.
The track I chose to feature is The One as it features some soul, funk, reggae, and straight hip-hop flavor. It’s such a dope beat and Benton slays it with creative lyricism and a ferocity to boot! Check out this project! You owe it to yourself!

Note:
I have yet to listen to this but I HAD to get it out there. DJ Enyoutee started releasing some singles months ago, and I had made the suggestion that these should be compiled in some form or fashion and I was told that was definitely going to be happening. And the Power Of Words is that thought to fruition.
I mean just look at this lineup! There are so many ill spittas and producers on this thing you can not go wrong! This is the kind of project that we run this site for! Awesome lineup and technically you can get it for free. But if you don’t put something down on a project of this nature…I am calling it right now…bitch move.
Put to the cause and support good music!
Foul Monday, Starvin B, and Flushing Tek combine with producer Stu Bangas for this track on the After Ourz project. And if you know ANY of the names affiliated you know what this project is about. On this particular joint, you are getting that unfiltered NYC grimy lyricism with that exceptional production that Bangas is always affiliated with! The project is seven tracks long and won’t disappoint in the least.
One thing Dirty Diggs knows is how to do smooth. And he formulates another slick production this time for the emcee Waterr to do his thing over. The two execute on this perfectly and sound great together. That is a good thing considering the two have a collaborative project entitled, WIZARD of the CRYSTAL, dropping in just a few days. So make sure you stay tuned for that goodness.
Here’s a dope record off of Mic Handz’ project, Blvcklist: Rise of The Daywalker EP. Mic Handz and Rock are giving you that raw hip-hop flavor live and direct on this one and there is nothing weak in the mixture here. It’s all about stand-out deliveries and banging production.
And of note…Mic Handz was three days out of the hospital when making this…that’s commitment to the craft. What are you doing?
Serge Severe drops the visuals from my favorite track off of his album, The MC. Everything comes together on this joint with Maze Rockwell firing up the horns and haunting vocal sample for Severe to run through with crisp, yet engaging lyricism. This track really typifies what Severe accomplishes on his new album, which you have to hear.
