I really enjoy where !llmind took this beat. It was very creative to use that chopped vocal sample as the basis for the remix. The Nu World Remix EP drops next week. Definitely check for that. Meanwhile…
Single You Out: Koncept – Watch The Sky Fall (ft. Royce Da 5’9″)
Koncept does not let up. He has been relentless the last two weeks. He’s dropped three singles and two videos making it hard for me to choose what cut I am feeling hte most. They are all so very good. This one does have the advantages of having Marco Polo on the beat and Nickel Nine on a guest verse. You just can’t go wrong there. December 13th is when his solo project, Awaken, drops. Plug that into your cell phone and save the date…
I am sending you over to DJ Booth to rate and potentially purchase the single on Itunes…

Single You Out: Laelo Hood – Land Of Broken Dreams (Ft. Lyriciss and Kokayi)
Is it just me is is Laelo batting 100 right now? What track has he dropped in 2011 that hasn’t been excellent? None. Zero. Zilch. This time he teams up with another favorite of mine, Lyriciss as they discuss the pitfalls of the music industry. Shout out to The Bad Abbot on the production. He has produced more than just a few bangers this year. This song is off of Laelo’s forthcoming album, Life In High Defnintion.
Single You Out: Wizdom x Epidemmik – That’s Nice (ft. Sol, Luck-One and Grynch)
This track is a self-fulfilling prophecy because the joint is indeed nice. The NorthWest represents on this track. I am sure you will all love this beat. It’s good enough for your party and to just ease back to. It’s too good not to enjoy. This is the second single to the forthcoming album from Wizdom and Epidemmik, Unearthed.
Single You Out: Awkword – Doctor, Doctor (ft. GuessWho)
I have seen this name floating out there for some time. This is my first time really sitting down to listen to Awkword though. I like what I hear from this single off his yet to be released album, World View. Therapy music…
Single You Out: Goldini Bagwell – Bagwell
Alright now! Some new music from the Sandpeople camp. I know this emcee as Gold, but I guess he is rolling with the name Goldini Bagwell. It really doesn’t matter in terms of this single from his forthcoming album, Chainsmoke, dropping November 29th. This song is stupid nice…or maybe dumb hot…oh well, you get the picture, check it out.

Single You Out: REL!G!ON – Classical Music (Dangerous Alliance) (ft. Planet Asia, Ras Kass, Torae & Jasiri X)
This song is no joke. I am not laughing. Planet Asia and Ras Kass coupled with Torae and Jasiri X? Ah hell. This song is a banger in every sense of the word. The beat by REL!G!ON is next level. There is nothing to dislike about this track unless you simply hate hip hop.
Single You Out: YC The Cynic – More And More Remix (Ft. Rapper Big Pooh, King Mez & Chaundon)
The remix for YC The Cynic’s, More And More, includes more than just a couple of dope alternate invites. It looks like he solicited some of the Carolina’s best. The original song from Fall FWD is dope but I may yet prefer this “Carolina” version. On a side note, every time I hear a King Mez guest shot, I crave to hear a solo album. Maybe soon?
Malkovich – What I Know (ft. Sum) (Video)
Is this the first time I have featured Malkovich? Better late than never. Much of this is in part to his rhyming partner on this track, Sum. That man can flow! Where is he from? What has he done in the past? At any rate it’s a great song. The beat is provided by Becoming Phill. If you are really feeling this track, why don’t you download it? It’s free.
Koncept – Feel So Good (ft Laurence Lafond-Beauln) (Video)
The BBAS team must all be drinking some secret elixir that enhances their rhyming and production skill because everything they put out is noteworthy. It’s ALL that damn good. Koncept really is bringing it with his last two singles. I’ve always like him as an emcee but these tracks (in particular this one) really have him stepping up a notch. The production by Tranzformer,…awesome. Love this joint.
