Is this the first offering off of Little Vic’s album, Widowmaker? Why , yes. Yes it is! It’s exciting because I have been waiting for years for Little Vic to put out something official and here it comes. Let Alone is a somber joint that is also produced by Vic. He’s got the keys moving as he discusses the caveats of relationships in there different stages. Truly an artist for the people with his conversational style. Enjoy!
Famoso is staying busy in preparation for his release of the B.A.S.E. project. War In My Mind is another single from the project. The dope production is from Notez and Ayden. The sample they use for the chorus is a nice touch, while Famoso stays consistent dropping ill bars with the concept of moving forward in his life and career and not looking back.
It has been a minute since I have heard from Akir and it’s good to hear these new sounds, only to be enhanced by the guest appearance of Immortal Technique. The beat by The Sound at first sets you out upon a safari and then starts to add layer upon layer of instrumentation. It is a musical build up until a catharsis. Akir’s new album, The Plan, drops on September 24th.
More good music from OnlyOne’s forthcoming Cult Classic 2. Illmaculate and Epp joined him on this psychedelic journey. The beat is trippy, like looking through a kaleidoscope (which is a fitting comparison in regards to the song’s title) , but the verses are that straightforward dopeness we come to expect from the Sandpeople crew.
Another banger to be added to the credentials of French producer, Alterbeats! This beat is lethal with these banging keys. I am not all that familiar with Innocent? (though I am sure I Have featured him on here before) but I like his voice a lot and it flows very smooth over this production. His content also involves relevant and real subject matter.
New Cayoz material, and this time he brought a few friends to rock over some Spanish influenced hip hop production. I didn’t realize that Cayoz’s production skills were so refined either. He definitely put together something proper with Letras Liquidos. One of the things that has been a MO of Cayoz is the fact that he puts together thought provoking music. But what gets lost in the translation sometimes is just how technically gifted he is as an emcee. Sageinfinie and P Hill The Genesis both make solid contributions with their verse as well. And what can I say, that I have not already about DJ Grazzhoppa? I will say it again though for those of you who have not been listening: Grazzhoppa has the Midas Touch. If he is on the track, it’s going to be good.
The Suicide Kings just dropped their album, Crown Of Thorns, a few days ago. I just picked it up yesterday and there are some tracks that have some serious knock to them. This is one of them. If you like albums heavy on boom bap and aggressive wordplay, you are going to like, Crown Of Thorns.
The names that are involved in this project are ones that you can automatically associate with being a banger! All of these artists have been featured on HHD before and received high acclaim. Now they unite for this track which is the jump off for Tha Soloist and Trilian’s new project, Exit Thru Gift. That album is slated for an early 2014 delivery. Enjoy this track in the meantime.
I would not have checked this unless Frank Ramz sent it to me. The end result after a couple of listens is that it’s pretty damn dope. NatStar and Frank Ramz undoubtedly are capable of spitting bars in abundance. But the thing here is that these bars are proliferated with meaning. I mean check this snippet of the last verse:
We yelling black is beautiful from the pew inside the church / Hallelujah! But we shoot a n#@ga if blue is on his shirt / Or if his hat is twisted cute we move his casket in the dirt
Just those few bars should be enough for people who are looking for dope hip hop music to share this track with a friend. This music is powerful. This is from NatStar’s album, Dreamer, which was just released a few days ago. You can also stream all the tracks before purchasing HERE.
