I need to focus more on this Vancouver artist, e.d.g.e. This artist just gets it. He’s going to be different and keep kids guessing and that’s a refreshing mentality. I like the on and off beat style of the video. I listened to his latest project, Destroy & Rebuild and was really impressed.
Okwerdz & Dirtbag Dan – Hate Me Cuz I’m Great (Video)
The battle rap scene can be a very fickle arena and very polarizing place. I am sure Okwerdz and Dirtbag Dan are very aware of that fact but what we might forget is that these guys can make dope music. Now, for a few minutes, you can remember that before you resume hating or loving…whichever is your choice.
Layne Harper – Medicine Cabinet (Video)
Layne Harper drops one of the heaviest, yet dopest videos of 2012. This track has a lot of heart to it and in all likelihood we all know someone who has an addiction that’s hurting themselves. Medicine Cabinet is a look not only into the ill of drug use but mortality as well.
Sycksyllables – Gun On Me (Video)
This is a hard, hard cut. I don’t know anything about gun talk and this video is a little bit out of my league but the music was hot. Sycksyllables has a slick flow that I will be checking for in the future.
B.A.D. Company – Deep In The Canvas (Video)
This is my second favorite song from B.A.D. Company’s latest album, Bars and Drums. The concept for the video is really dope and DJ Limegreen’s beat is like an adrenaline rush.
Wax – Rosana (Video)
I loved this song when it dropped off of his most current mixtape, Eviction Notice. Now it gets the hilarious video treatment. So to sum it up, Wax made a great song even better by putting a fun and comedic twist to the video. Some of you artists should be taking notes…
Luck-One & Dekk – Searchin’ (Video)
Video derived from Luck-One and Dekks collaborative effort, Beautiful Music Part 2. The music is very smooth and laid back. Something for when you just want to chill and listen, to well…Beautiful Music.
Veteran Assassins- Paint The Town Red (Video)
This is definitely worth a post or maybe two. Really dope flows and Scifi Stu on the beats.Their album, Paint The Town Red just dropped two days ago and on the strength of this joint I am going to have to cop it. Really great debut .
2UGLi ft Bloody Monk Consortium – Left Handed Violinists (Video)
New video from the homie, 2Ugli and his affiliates the Bloody Monk Consortium. Snowgoons lacing the production. It’s just a tough joint with some fire bars and symphonic beats. New album from the collaborators drops on July 28th entitled Immunological Disorder.
Red Eye – Fuc B’n Polite (Video)
Red Eye back at it again with some visuals from his St. Fatrick’s Day mixtape. If you haven’t copped that yet, get on it! The whole joint is a monster.
