Single You Out: The Bad Seed – Lebron Shoes (ft. Ethemadassassin x LR Blitzkrieg)

The Bad Seed is only accelerating when it comes to making great music. He just released Everything Means Nothing Vol. 1 and now he’s coming with the sequel in just over a month. And these aren’t filler tracks or left overs…the verbal artillery and the production is top notch. Freakshow is on the boards crafting the perfect backdrop for a posse cut. The guitar loop with the drums is perfect for Seed, Ethemadassassin, and LR Blitzkrieg to conduct their takeover. The pen game on this joint is elite. I especially like Ethemadassassin’s sports bars and metaphors. This is a sure shot!

Everything Means Nothing Vol. 2 coming in April!

Single You Out: Flashius Clayton x Flu – All About Me

Flashius Clayton and Flu linked up for a dope little project called, Two Piece and a Biscuit, and it’s three tracks of straight dope hip hop. I loved all three tracks from this project, and could have featured either of them, but here’s the track, All About Me. The sample that Flu laces for this track is such a great vibe. It’s got a certain amount of “cool” to it. Love it. And Clayton it puts it into perspective bar by bar…it’s not about you, it’s about me. Great song. Great project.

Single You Out: Copywrite – Weight For It (prod. By DJ Mighty Mi)

Oh yes…Copywrite teaming up for some DJ Mighty Mi production! This song smacks! The funky boom bap laced by Mighty Mi is the perfect landscape for Copy to land punch after punch. This might be my favorite Copy song in recent memory. I mean…I stayed rewinding it back with bars like:

This Liberace / You mad cuz the bitches jock me / Cougar in the car like the Ballad Of Ricky Bobby

His upcoming album T.H.E. Last Supper (coming in May) has all the trappings of something really dope! Stay tuned!

Single You Out: Werdperfect – Brimstone (ft. Eto) (prod. By Dub Sonata)

Werdperfect is not a name that I am overly familiar with but this new single, Brimstone, he is bound to raise some eardrums. And with Dub Sonata on the production you are off to a terrific start. And then you add a verse from Eto, and you are REALLY cooking. But come to find out…Werdperfect’s pen game is pretty damn good! The drums knock heavy as does the blending of wordplay and wisdom. Lot of bars that you can feel and relate to.

New album, Dog Daze, drops on April 26th.

Single You Out: Bozack Morris – Blood In Blood Out (ft. Asun Eastwood & Lex Talionis)

Not enough people are talking about this new project from Bozack Morris, The Toronto Tape, so I am compelled to put you up on it. Morris put some legit bangers together with some of Toronto’s very best and the results are irrefutably dope. And this one featuring Asun Eastwood and Lex Talionis is my favorite. Cue the church organ and lets unleash some damnation. Asun drops some ungodly hard bard on this … love it.

Single You Out: Swollen Members – Triple Aces

Whoa! New Swollen Members?!?! Say it’s so…and apparently it is.Prevail, Madchild, and Rob The Viking are apparently making new music again, and that’s a breath of fresh air. I loved these guys when they were at their zenith. Balance is in my mind a classic album. I know others will disagree but that was a game changer when it dropped in 1999.

Let us hope that there is new music in store for the listener in the future.

Single You Out: Chuck N Lock – Money On The Line

This new Chuck N Lock is soooooooo damn good. Grant Burgess puts this vocal sample and dusty sample in the forefront of his production, which acts as the duos haunt for about three minutes. But Chuck N Lock…I’ve said this before…their pen game and the way they sin words is one of a kind. 

When duty calls, most of yall just ignore it / Let it go to your voice mail recording / Never check it if the message is important / I get it, I just don’t endorse it / I never force it / Unless I am kicking it off the door hinge / I’m at your neck like the headless horseman / Full of endorphines / Special forces and a furious pen / I’m working lat one out, first one in….

Bars! New project Hole In THe Wall dropping on the 14th of this month!
