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.

Single You Out: Redhead – Can Only Blame Yourself (ft. Laelo Hood)
I like getting things like this in my email. You know…dope music type things. I have no information on the artist Redhead but the song really speaks volumes. I truly like everything about this song. The production is nice (Ratatat) and the verses are well thought out. A guest shot from Laelo Hood does nothing but help. If you like this cut, it is off his mixtape which just dropped (yet to check it out), The Schemata.

Single You Out: A.L. Laureate – Automated Negligence
Are you looking for something mellow yet introspective this morning? A.L. Laureate has got you covered. It’s a deep song so make sure you pick a quiet corner to listen to this for the first time. DJ Frantic is on the beat. Laureate’s new album, Closed Eyed Insomnia is on it’s way.

Single You Out: Celph Titled x Buckwild – While You Slept (ft. Laws)
First batch of dopeness released from Celph Titled and Buckwild’s follow up album, Nineteen Ninety MORE. Which drops next week. Yes, you heard correctly, NEXT WEEK. It’s vintage vibe with with that lyrical twist. Be sure to check out the album next week!

Single You Out: Jon Connor – Vicious Cycle
Here’s the second dose of Jon Connor I promised. This is a good Valentine’s Day song. It’s for those of you in (or recently out of) a relationship where things never get better and each day seems like the last. Nothing changes, thusly leading into the Vicious Cycle.

Single You Out: Hasan Salaam – 1911
I am pretty sure I own all of Hasan Salaam’s discography. I have been following his career for a while now and he remains an artist who not only is lyrically gifted but can also convey meaning and power in his rhymes. His new album, Music Is My Weapon, is slated to drop on 12/06/2011. All the proceeds from this album’s sales will be donated to the It Takes A Village Foundation. You can’t get anymore high-minded than that. Props!
