Grand Opus (Joc Scholar & Centric) – The Key (Video)

Wow.   We featured one of their original singles last year, and now that I see a new video, I am reminded again exactly how dope these guys are.   I love Centric’s production ability.  I still listen to his project from more than a few years ago (shit, five years ago), The Alter Ego.  And as far as Joc Scholar is concerned, I don’t have a lot of material from him, but if this song is consistent with his overall capabilities, he is something special.   I really hope there will be a project in the near future because these guys knocked it out the park with this song.

M-Dot – Finish (Video)

The life of an emcee rocking it independently can be anything but glorious and M-Dot has a few words of advice for his contemporaries if they are going to see that finish line.   The moment you think you can’t, you have to simply  push forward.  Ignore the excuses and the reasons you can’t, and suck it up princess…Man up!

Finish is yet another dope track from his latest project, Jake LaDotta.

Eff Yoo – The First Power (Video)

Eff Yoo just released his latest album, Papa Dios, which reminded me that I had never posted about this video.  Truly, the album is Eff Yoo’s most complete to date.   His skill set is becoming more polished and refined, making this album a must listen.   This cut is really just the tip of the iceberg in what you will find in the album.  Bangers on deck!

Illmaculate & OnlyOne – GATTACA (Official Music Video) feat. J-Rome

OnlyOne and Illmaculate are known for making great music but this cut is among the most premium.   This is just some really good music period.   Chase Moore continues the string of flawless production with this concoction and J-Rome blesses the hook to complete the effect.  Meanwhile the two emcees drop incessantly dope lyricism that will at moment leave you a little slack jawed.

This is just a pre-emptive strike of what’s to come when they drop their album this summer, Only & Ill.

King RA & Bunty Beats – No Copy (Video)

The title of King Ra and Bunty Beats’ album, Back To The Essence, really puts this track into perspective.   The Jersey emcee and British producer reclaim that vintage hip hop sound with tracks like these and others that abound on the full length project.   They put the ‘skinny jean culture’ and the ‘hipster movement’ on blast by taking yesterday’s boom-bap and giving it a fresh twist.   Giving you the authentic…No Copy.

Make sure you check and cop the project if you are liking what you hear!
