Animal Pak – No Mistakes (Video)

The Animal Pak is a nine man collective who unite on this track to set the official definition of the term ‘posse cut’.   If I had to pick a favorite verse I would put it on Senica Da Misfit on the strength of that Jodi Arias line.   But good gravy each of these emcees sets this mic ablaze.

This track is off of the mixtape, Animal Planet, which is available now at the extremely affordable price of 5 duckets.

Goldini Bagwell – Say Anything (Video)

Goldini Bagwell is anything but ordinary, as a matter of fact, he may be the most artistic emcees I have ever come across.  That artistry comes across in his music and in these videos.  In all honesty, I didn’t know what was happeneing until the very end, so a credit to the director and the artist on this one.  Really brilliant work. Easily a candidate for video of the year.

If you dug this song, make sure you check out the entire album, produced by Pmpee, Secondhand Smoke (The Extended Cut).

Sleep (The Fraternity) – Goon To A God (Video)

On my hiatus I missed this joint from Sleep of 2ManCypher and it HAS TO be mentioned.  This joint is hot!  Dope Antelope can’t be beat in the production game right now.  I don’t know if anyone is producing bangers like this guy.  (Now if I could just get him to do this feature with me…another story).  Sleep is no stranger to Antelope’s production and he wrecks hell all over this joint.  Just some real hard bodied hip hop shit for your speakers. Recognize!

Slaine – Bobby Be Real (ft. Tech N9ne & Madchild) (Video)

Slaine’s new album, The King Of Everything Else, dropped today and I have to tell you that it’s the best music he’s put out in a while.  I really enjoyed listening to each cut and the album as a whole.  Bobby Be Real is an excellent joint to feature from the album that is brought to life in this video.  TechN9ne and Madchild are invited on the cut to narrate part of Slaine’s nightmare.   This is one of the better video productions I have seen in 2014.  I strongly suggest that you listen to his album.

Skeezo & Rediculous – Watch Ya Step Remix (ft. El Gant and Bekay) (Video)

Oh you were truly not ready for this joint.    Rediculous applied a particular type of funk to make this joint rock while Skeezo, El Gant, and Bekay launch an all out verbal assault on all the skinny jean wearing hipsters who claim to be able to rock the crowd.   These are joints that hip hop heads scream for, so make sure you dowload the album and share it with a friend.  You owe these men that much.

Basik – Knowledge God II (ft. Da Kidd L.A) (Video)

The artist Basik hit me up on email and asked me to take a look at this video he had done.   The moment struck me, and I think musically this track is pretty damn good.   The dance moves at the end could use a little work…haha but lyrically it was tight.   I especially liked Basik’s bars and flow as it had it’s own character (meaning it wasn’t just like everyone elses).  He has a mixtape due out soon entitled False Idols so make sure you check for that.
