Hip hop is at it’s best when it means something to somebody and when a message is being imparted. The Digital Martyrs enlist Hall Of Fame lyricist, Ras Kass to discuss politics, society, and the hypocrisy in both. It’s a tightly woven track all together but it’s hard for anyone to outshine a Ras Kass guest verse. The Ballad Of The Bullet is the Martyr’s forthcoming full length…be on the lookout.
It’s another overseas banger, this time from German producer Whatson. He uses a creative blend of rock and hip for this cut while extending the mic duties to veteran emcees, Planetary, M-Dot, and Aims. It’s a definite head nodder. This song is lifted from Whatson’s new EP Detour (which I know nothing about but will remedy soon)
I had to bump somebody else’s post to get this one up there immediately. Would it be proper to say that this joint is cold? Tacky maybe, but proper yes. I have never heard Blue Legacy spit a single bar before but this joint has me as an instant fan. Got a real nice flow and The Militia cook up on of those dark, in the shadows, night stalking beats. You won’t regret checking this.
The free EP, True Fiction, drops next month.
King Mez joins Alpha Male Society on this song from group’s latest album, Background Check 2. The song is produced by Leland Jones. On a whole the joint has a lot of energy and gets the blood pumpin’ the instant it comes on.
This cut from CookBook and DJ Rhettmatic’s forthcoming project, Phantom Menace, represents the melding of three really ill Cali crews. LA Symphony, Hieroglyphics, and The Beat Junkies all represent well on this joint. The beat is especially impressive. It’s like an uptempo symphony. The project is dropping this Tuesday so be on the lookout!
This song has got everything. It’s got a trio of dope emcees. It has the great production from HHD favorite, SciFi Stu. It also has the X-Factor in the cuts by Chinch 33. It’s time people start noticing the gift he has in chopping it up proper. I find I enjoy pretty much any song where he has a credit.
I am not sure if this is a single for a forthcoming project, but enjoy it any ways…
I hate posting on the weekends but I can’t help it. This news is BIG! All of us older heads can breathe again, and youngers can start anew. Natural Elements (Agu, Swigga, and Anthony Cruz) is back in the building and the track is dope! The three show excellent chemistry as if they have never been apart. If you listen to their older material (which I strongly encourage) you will hear that undeniable chemistry again and again. Man, enjoy this people…I know I am.
This is a clear and deliberate track coming off of Rilgood’s forthcoming mix tape, Kingdom. It has a raw, old school vibe to it, which I can appreciate. Is somewhat reminiscent in style to Roc Marciano.
Tone Liv and the fellas keep the video grimy while hanging out spitting verbals in an abandoned warehouse. This track heralds from Liv’s new album, Cheap Porn, Tall Cans, and T.V. Dinners.
New music from Shabaam Sahdeeq accompanied by FT and Skyzoo. When it comes to Sahdeeq’s music, it’s always heat rocks. No different here. DJ Skizz on the beat.
