Ren Thomas – Oil & Water (Video)

Is it the music or is it the woman? Ren Thomas doesn’t have a choice in his new single Oil & Water. Hip Hop is just ingrained in Thomas just as is oxygen to air. The track has a bluesy feel to it as the emcee put his feelings to in the bars. It hurts to lose somebody that you love, when you can’t change something intrinsic in yourself.

If you don’t have his album, I Been Nice, you definitely need to check it. Incredibly dope!

Rob Viktum – Shoot The Messenger (ft. Lil’ Fame, Skrewtape & Guilty Simpson) (Video)

Rob Viktum’s album, Shoot The Messenger, actually drops at midnight tonight on all the digital outlets and this is the title track from the album. You’ve got the grimiest of the grimy on this joint. It’s a tough lineup of emcees with Lil Fame, Skrewtape, and Guilty Simpson on the mic. The production almost has a TV Score feel. Really dope.

I can’t wait to peep the project.

Token – Doozy (Video)

Token is back with another single showcasing that same creativity and skill that made him an instant favorite here. There are so few artists capable of this level of song, that I can speak enough to the talent. And that creativity isn’t just shown in the song, but the video has got A LOT going on with it as well. Very entertaining.

Jigmastas – The Resurge (Video)

The Jigmastas made their long awaited return to the hip hop scene last year and it really was a sight for sore eyes. DJ Spinna and Kriminul have born witness to the deterioration of hip hop over the course of the last decade and heading back to the frontlines to provide the “resurgence” needed. Spinna always provides a smooth and eloquent production featuring pianos and horns, while Kriminul blesses the mic with his distance voice and fresh delivery.

This is what the game needed! Check out their album, Resurgence, NOW!
