DJ Bless outdid himself with this production! The chorus sounds like it was sung by a demonic doll. It just has this very creepy element to the track. For their part, The Rhythm Writers do not tread lightly and drop a nice sequence of bars. The combination of DJ Bless and The Rhythm Writers proves once again to be a win for hip hop heads.
Damn. This is the very definition of a ‘banger’. Ayden has these drums banging hard and Famoso and Shaz Illyork do not fail to deliver some of that indelible NYC flavor. I love this material.
This is off of Famoso’s forthcoming project, Tales From Tha Dopeside.
New track from the collective known as Coarse Company, which is comprised of Koncept and Tenacity. And for these Bohemians the sky is the limit when rocking over this uncredited (as far as I can tell) production. The two emcees really blend their unique styles for the sake of making some good hip hop. That’s selfless.
Their project, Same Page, drops for free on December 17th (a mere day away).
Mayhem from the EMS camp broke me off with this new track by Tribeca that he is featured on. Forever Rain is something that us regular folk can really find solace in. Sometimes we feel like circumstances and conditions are constantly against us, but we still persevere. The chorus by Lisa Denise is also a highlight here. Her voice relates to the hope that the emcees are referring to.
JustMe is going to close out this year on the right note. As I prepare my end of the year posts, I had to give this dope hip hop ponderance it’s due. Deacon the Villain is the one responsible for the subtle soundscape upon which JustMe narrates. Enjoy.
It’s a good day when I get some new tunes from my man, Benjamin Miles. It’s been a minute since we have heard from Miles but he offers us some break thru bars with his new cut, The Beat Goes On, offered in conjunction with producer, Eddie Logix.
Hopefully this song is part of a bigger project as the duo really works well together. The beat by Logix makes you drift away while the words from Miles gives you something to ponder on your journey.
To build a life takes commitment / You could crush it in just an instant
I took a look at this one on the strength of Tragedy tha Beast’s music this year. But in truth all of these emcees can spit over this banger produced by KA Beats. Elementz Emcee, Tragedy, and Dawreck all bloody up this track with some tough lines. I am not sure where this track was lifted off of or whether or not it’s part of a larger project, but enjoy.
H Blanco is a new signee to Termanology’s roster. I think he’s quite impressive on this track. I know that I have heard him on some of Termanology’s past works and looking forward to what he might be doing in the future. Apparently he has a new mixtape released in conjunction with Statik Selektah. I think you guys should feel this joint.
Koncept & Tenacity make up the group Coarse Company. The combination proves to be really dope. Koncept has been dropping consistently dope material for a few years now. Tenacity released a couple of dope albums this year and I will just let it be said: He was the HHD runner-up for our Artist Of The Year this year. You don’t just drop two dope albums and not get noticed.
The J57 produced song, City Hurts comes from their upcoming project, Same Page, which comes out next week. This song bodes well for the quality of the project.
At least musically, Soul Khan’s 2013 was very much under the radar. He may have only put out a couple of tracks. Praying for a River is setting the table for hopefully a more active 2014. This is the first single from his forthcoming free album, and is produced by the venerable J57. Enjoy.
