Rayce – Sanctuary (Video)

I was waiting for a way to show case this song, Sanctuary,  from Rayce, and this evening I get wind of this new video.  It’s an ‘ask an you shall receive’ sort of thing.  Anyway…Rayce invites the many elements of hip hop into this track from the krylon to the B-Boy stance, you get a little taste of it all over this DJ Impact beat.   Rayce is a guy you should be looking out for.  He’s got good command of his craft and makes good music.

Rayce never told me if this track was destined for a particular project, so you will just have to enjoy for the sake of enjoyment.

Alterbeats x Mic Handz – My Life (Video)

This video is full of changes of direction, dope production from Alterbeats, and raw rhymes from Mic Handz.  Every video that’s done for an Alterbeats’ cut is just extremely well done.  There’s no getting around that.  There’s also no denying Mic Handz’ opportunity to achieve his dream.  He has the skill, the production behind him, and the cosign from a lot of other dope artists.  Let’s see what he does next to make those dreams a reality. Meanwhile, make sure you cop Class Struggle if you have not already.

LATYRX (Lateef + Lyrics Born) – Exclamation Point (ft. Forrest Day) (Video)

It’s unorthodox.  It’s different.   It’s fun.  Be grateful that the team of Lateef and Lyrics Born have come together again to form the powerhouse of Latyrx.  These guys are originals when it comes to nonconformity in hip hop.  They were pushing boundaries when the rest of these artists were scared to even put a foot outside their proverbial box.

Check out their album, expertly titled, The Second Album.

ATAK 1 – Fall From Grace (prod. by Sinima Beatz) (Video)

I saw this posted over at Kevin Nottingham’s spread and I thought it was definitely worthy of one of our five posts today.   The production from Sinima Beatz is spot on.  He cinched it with that sample right from the get go.  ATAK 1 also represents his flaws really well in his gift of rhyme.  And, no, he’s not perfect, but he’s blessed enough to spit some bars for us and that’s good enough here on HHD.  This is off of his mixtape, ComonDante- The Che Guevera of Rap Vol.5.

Ruste Juxx – Gimme Da Loot (Video)

Very few people work as hard as Ruste Juxx does. He always optimizes each and every project he does.  We always get tons of dope visuals from him along with a grip of singles.  That way there should be no reason  for you NOT to cop his new album.  Gimme Da Loot is off of his latest album, Ready To Juxx which was produced entirely by VS The Best. The story, it turns out, is prompted by a stolen umbrella.  Go figure.

Tim Gustave – French Touch (Video)

This video straight up made me want to go visit Paris.  This is where dope meets charming.   Gustave also has a nice flow, and the fact he can go from English to French is pretty impressive.    If the French want to entice a bunch of hip hop heads to come across the pond, perhaps they should use this video?  This single was lifted from Tim Gustave’s new EP, Fragments Of A Dream which I have not heard but may be checking out shortly.

The 17th – Rubbish ft. Spoke In Wordz, Fokis (Video)

You may remember The 17th from our feature on him earlier this year.   The man has a crazy amount of talent.   And if you think that this cut is dope, make sure you check that EP.  It’s free (now available on iTunes but worth every penny) and was rated the best EP of 2012 right here on HHD.  Support artists like The 17th, Spoke In Words, and Fokis because we too are tired of the Rubbish.
