First off, I love the artwork for this joint! Secondly, DJ Nastee came super correct with this beat. The sample and horns are amazing. This something I could play again and again (and probably will). Craig G and Styles P make quick work of the beat with fiery lyrics and delivery. Check in particular Craig G’s last verse. Recognize that this Ramblings Of An Angry Old Man album will be something special.
I am cheating with this one. This song was actually released months ago but was just passed on to me so I am treating it as new. Genghis Khan has a new album dropping in a few weeks entitled , The Broken Love. This song is exhibit one as to why I think you should be checking for this album. The bass line, drums, and keys provide the knocking production for all these dope emcees. Don’t sleep…
DJ Bless (Sutter Kain) has been talking about this project for a while and now we get our first sampling of what it’s going to be about. And if we get a whole album of this type of music, then consider me all in. This track starts out soulful and then the darkness sets in. The piano and the vocal sample that Sutter Kain provides is just the right mood for these bars. And speaking of bars, Ancient Alienz can spit some! Be on the lookout for their new project in the coming months.
Here’s an artist that shot me over his album, A Beautiful Blend, more than just a few days ago. I listened through it and was pretty impressed with the quality of music. The first thing that you will notice is his gruff voice and hard delivery. He definitely has the God-given intangibles to emcee and set himself apart from the pack.
At any rate, I wanted to share with you all a track from the album. Bully is the track I chose because of it’s uptempo funky vibe. Main Course devours this beat…
I posted the OG Version of this track months ago and now the good folks wanted to remind you of how dope this track is again, this time be shooting us the remix of the track that is featured on M-Dot’s latest mixtape, Layer Cake. It’s equally as potent as the first with a slightly more energetic vibe. Peep…
I always enjoy some new music from Emilio Lopez. This track is much more smooth and laid back than his most recent work and I just sop happened to need something to chill out to, Perfect timing. Lopez’s Vice City Nights EP drops on September 18th if the news is accurate.
M.A. Cee Kings is the HHD featured artist for the month of August and as such, we will be sharing one of his joints every Friday. This cut is called 70s Slang where he flows over a Young Chris instrumental. Check the rawness and tell me this man doesn’t have limitless potential!
Nice beat. Good word play. Chaundon. And A nice chorus to tie it all together. Not a bad debut in my eyes when listening to My.N.O.R.S. single, Make It By. It’s actually pretty refreshing. There’s been a shortage of well construed songs this month and these guys answered the call. I particularly like the way the producer, DP incorporated the bongo/congo instrumentation.
The production duo of JR&PH7 have been busy in the lab in 2012. They had the St. Joe Louis and Brokn.Englsh EP, they dropped another project, and now they have this single featuring Skyzoo and Sean Price. That’s a lot of heat in one year. The beat on this is top notch and you even get two verse from Sean P which I will count as a bonus. This cut is definitely memorable. Tune in…The Good Life is dropping this year….
There are many artists that deserve your support, but perhaps none so more, as DJ K.O. You remember DJ K.O. right? He’s the man who helped bring you over 5o dope hip hop tracks for FREE last year. He is also the man who dropped one of the illest albums from a producer…ever. Picture This dropped in 2008 and featured countless dope producers and emcees and now he is back, four years later with his sophomore effort…EMPBeTheTeam.
This track definitely has the funky factor behind it and brings the entire Elementality team so check the cut, and then make sure to cop the album when it drops.
