I have had a rotten day only to be made better by this new Shaz Illyork and the rest of The Opposition team. This joint is indicative of what The Opposition is bringing to hip hop these days. What exactly is that you ask? It’s hard, yet intelligent rhymes over banging rhythms
Mally x The Sundance Kid – Once We’re Kings (Video)
This is a burner! I forgot how good this song was. It was originally a part of the the duo’s Free On The 15th series and now gets the visual treatment. The beat on this track and Mally’s flow make this an instant favorite.
Godilla – Rusty Machete (Video)
I just ran through Godilla’s album, Battle Beast: A Prelude To Human Zoo, and that album really bangs. It’s nineteen tracks deep with three bonus tracks. I am going to give it another listen, but I definitely think it’s worth picking up. Rusty Machete is off the album and is indicative of what you can expect from the rest of the tracks. Enjoy…
Locksmith – Illuminati (Video)
No days off for Locksmith. The man is on to his next project, Labyrinth, dropping in March. Illuminati is a great song in my opinion. The video is really well done. It’s definitely my favorite so far of this young 2012.
“He says we praise Azazel, and annually meet a Bilderberg” Damn.
Blacastan – The Booth (Video)
Blacastan is prepping the release for his latest mixtape, The Master Builder Part II. This is a cut off of that mixtape. The man is dope, pure and simple. You can also download the single if you like below:
Planet Asia – Golden State (Video)
I will never bet against a Planet Asia project being anything less than extremely dope. This joint is funky. Planet Asia could probably rap over cow bells and still sound fresh. The man just makes music better with his flow and rhyme prowess. Black Belt Theatre will be available on February 28th. Sleep not…
Adlib – Bad Intentions (Video)
Yeah. I like this beat and Adlib gets that adrenaline pumping. Sounds type ill to me. Bad Intentions is dropping sometime this Spring. I will be looking out.
C-Rayz Walz – BLVCK ROSARIES (Celebrate) Ft. Freddie Bunz (Video)
As I steadily await the arrival of C-Rayz Walz new album, which is indeed arriving this year, he decides to unleash some visuals from his mixtape All Blvck Everything. C-Rayz verse celebrating the life of Eyedea is a nice testament to the Minnesota native.
Rome Cee – Something Beyond (Video)
My fault, Rome Cee has sent this to me twice and I just never got around to viewing it, but now that I have, I can pass it on to you. I really like the music. It’s very melodic and soothing, but Rome Cee’s flow keeps you interested. He’s definitely an artist we should be keeping our ears peeled for.
His album, The Grey Area, may be dropping soon…
Starvin B – Everybody Shining (ft. Shaz Illyork, Spit Gemz)
I don’t know. I missed this artist for some reason. I am just now getting up on Shaz Illyork and Spit Gemz, so with their appearance I thought I would give this video a chance. This joints goes… It’s that gritty, street hip hop that gets me hype.
This joint is off of Starvin B’s The Food Chain. You can download the EP for free HERE or you can purchase an extended version HERE for $10. I chose the latter because this is music we can get behind and support.!
