Single You Out: Nostic x NapzMeka x Phakt – Pipe Dream

Chisolm

I have been sitting on this for about a week, waiting for the opportune time to drop it on the site and it kept getting bumped.  But I am putting an end to the stalling now. Nostic links up with Maryland producer Chisom Uzosike to give y’all a soulful jam about overcoming life’s obstacles no matter what might occur.  Joining him on the track are Canadian affiliates NapzMeka (U.G.L.I) and Phakt. What sets this track apart from the other  is simple attention to detail. This is mos definitely one of them joints you’ll have to rewind! Enjoy!

9th Prince – Never Never (ft. Inspectah Deck) (Video)

I am not sure where this track is from or destined to be, but it’s definitely worth sharing.   The production is coming from Soul Professa and as you can see from the title we have 9th Prince and Inspectah Deck in charge of bar droppin’.  The cut is a concoction of soul, funk, and grime, so if that sounds good to you, make sure you cop the single.  I especially like the way the Professa chops up the production between the 16s.  Dope.

Single You Out: Thesis43 – Storm Coming (ft. Apathy)

vFcIkA8

I had missed this track from a few weeks ago and it’s too dope just to leave it to chance that you may have caught it by now.  The beat by Digerati is really a showstopper.  The bass line on this track is pulsating while he incorporates so many other different sounds.  The electronica almost sounds like it was lifted from an early Nintendo video game.  While all this is going on Thesis43 and Apathy execute their verses to perfection.

This song can be found on Thesis43’s The Era EP.

Co$$ – Blasphemy in Babylon (prod. DJ Mentos)

Very few people approach religion as unabashed as Co$$.  He does it without being abrasive but really sets the table for the listener to think.  He is a keen observer and a thinking man which really sets him apart.  That, and he is an extremely gifted emcee. Black Hockey Players is set to drop soon and I will provide more information on that as it becomes available.  DJ Mentos is on the boards.

Single You Out: CuzOH! Black – Emergency Funk Broadcast Feat. Wordsmith (Produced by Strada)

CuzOH! Black keeps delivering  dope joints for me to post on the blog.  This time he teams up with DMV stalwart, Wordsmith for a fun and funky track.  I always like to hear cool tracks to vibe to and these guys did it correctly.  Strada is a pretty slept on producer.  Although I have only heard him with DMV cats I think he has a sound that a lot of artists should be looking for.

Nutso – No Sleep (Video)

Nutso is cranking out those bangers!  You know this!   This time he teams up with yet another dope European producer.  This time it’s Swedish producer, Terminal Five.  This song is full of that necessary dopeness.  I hope we get an album soon from Nutso and he can bury these nonbelievers.

Artist Spotlight: PremRock

premrock-1

I am pretty excited…no, let me rephrase, I am very excited to bring you some thoughts from one of the most creative emcees in the game, PremRock.

I have been listening to him for a couple of years now and in an ideal world, I would have connected with him at SXSW a couple of weeks ago.  But that was not in the cards.  Still, I wanted to pick his brain about, his art, his friends, and his perspective.  What I got in reply was well thought out introspection.

I encourage you to read the interview, check the video freestyle (it’s amazing) and make sure you cop all of his music.  If you love creativity in your hip hop, you are going to be an instant fan of PremRock.
