There have been a number of these alphabet flips in the last decade or so, and this one from Words of Dead Rabbits is pretty dope. The wordplay is sophisticated but not so delicate to force you to whip out the dictionary.
This is off of his compilation Features Of Fury.
This video is a pretty dope reconstruction of the Quentin Tarantino flick, Pulp Fiction. The production from The Arcitype, has a very noir feel to it, that feels just right when coupled with these visuals. Esh delivers a bevy of disturbing lines that are nuanced in depravity making this cut a dope, yet sinister addiction.
This cut is from the duo’s new album, Death Doesn’t Want You.
Mayhem & Soulslicers release the video for a single they released a month or so ago for the Boston anthem, Patriots. And while Tom Brady and company may have been knocked out of the playoffs, Mayhem and his affiliates definitely represent. Mayhem, Edo G, and M-Dot each represent a color from their favorite football team and paint a very vivid portrait of what it means to be from The Bean.
This cut is from the forthcoming album, Soul It May Seem.
Title cut from Illmaculate and OnlyOne’s new album, Only & Ill. These guys have been making music for quite a while and you can see that chemistry shine through on a track like this. The whole album is ill. There are so many dope tracks that will resonate with you. Chase Moore is responsible for this beat.
Shabaam Sahdeeq’s new EP, Modern Artillery is out now and this track reflects well upon the whole project. We showcased the single back in early October and now we are treated to the video. The concept of the video is pretty dope in that you think that you are watching a family man getting his bread the legal way, and only til the very end do you understand that he’s taking the crooked path to make the ends meet. Pretty dope. Production is by Big Ape. Make sure you snag this EP.
Jealousy & Envy is just one of the many dope tracks off of MoSS’ new album, Marching to the Sound of My Own Drum. I love the drums and the horns utilized for this production. And Termanology and Slaine maintain their cool with the haters and detractors to their very own success. Some really nice flows and bars with this music.
Nutso is back with a new track produced by Da Beatminerz. This track puts Nutso back in his element, spittin’ about his time on the block both now and yesterday. The production and the flows really have a perfect blend. It has a throwback, and almost playful demeanor, but even the most fun tracks by Nutso pack a razor blades’ edge…so don’t smile too much. Ha.
Nomis drops some heavy music with his latest video, Traffic. It’s also an extremely clever way to discuss Human Trafficking. We often times get upset at the most mundane things, like the traffic jam that keeps us from work or from a party. We are so self-absorbed in our own minor tribulations to notice the suffering happening around us. Human Trafficking is often something that gets swept under the rug, but Nomis is shedding much needed creative light.
His album, Socially Just, drops on November 13th. I am all in!
This cut is as they say, ‘stupid fresh’. Rain910 and Cory Gunz are on some Dia De Los Metros shit with this latest cut produced by Nottz. It’s a banger in every sense of the word. The production from Nottz is so fire it’s able to set off a panic among listeners. Rain and Gunz then proliferate random violence with every turn of phrase.
Be on the lookout A Perfect Day To Die dropping on November 13th.
A new video from Wax featuring sites from the San Diego Zoo. The Meanest illustrates Wax’s ability to make what I consider to be very addictive music. It’s impossible to listen to some of his cuts and not sing the choruses or echo the rhymes. They take on an almost anthem quality.
This cut hails from Wax’s latest album, Livin Foul.
