Not too many emcees hotter than Benny right now and his collaborative album with 38 Spesh, Stabbed & Shot, is certain fire. These guys are delivering iron clad chess moves in rhyme form over this Daringer beat.
I could listen to this album all day. Really dope street shit .
Illa Ghee dropping street tales on his new single, Gripped Up, which is a single from the forthcoming album, Suede Cigarettes. Its that lyrical toughness that we expect from Ghee .
Here’s a new video from The Council off of their album from last year, Nothin Else Matters. The drums knock, the sample is smooth, and the piano chops give this joint a somber, yet well executed feel. Inztinkz, Five Steez, Nomad Carlos & The Sickest Drama, all deliver distinctive bars so give this video a moment to marinate in the mindset.
Here’s some dope from Wally Clark that I lifted from his latest project, Fighting Words. The Tree is an ill narration from Clark over some funky/bluesy production from L’Orange. It’s short on runtime, but long on memorability. Check it!
New joint from Gary Rue who came widdit with his latest project, Every Shrink’s Wet Dream. This new single is definitely on par with where that project left off. The production from Sultan Mir, with the vocal sample, all the way down to the chorus is really dope and downright impactful. Gary Rue and guests Aye God and G-Mo Sosa deliver a solid salvo of bars making this track a standout.
This song is ‘Holy-Shit-Type-Good! Actually, scratch that…it’s not good…it’s GREAT. One of the best tracks I have heard this year. This production is a monstrous and THESE emcees DESTROY it! A really tough joint with sensational lyricism. LR Blitzkrieg, Mr. Live, and U.G. really deliver some top notch goodness here. Give it a listen and you will for sure feel the same.
You become instantly aware when Celph Titled and M.O.P. link up with Apathy that the track is going to be on some high octane shit. I mean, has M.O.P. ever done anything low key? Hell nah! And sure enough, you get all emcees firing on all cylinders when it comes to this track.
The Widow’s Son is dropping next Friday. Stand prepared.
New video from Snak The Ripper, and I am really feeling this joint. Snak has a real knack for delivering and imparting relavent wisdom and advice that most people can relate to. There’s a number of songs that he has done that speak to me and Lesson Learned is no different. Always look forward to hearing new music from him.
Here’s something new from 2Ugli’s bandcamp featuring someone I hadn’t heard from in a long while, Cage. The track is produced Serbia’s own, Trillian, and he is lacing the two emcees with some deep darkness. DJ Danetic on the the cuts. I hope you guys enjoy this treat.
Apathy is back with his third single, The Order, from the forthcoming album, The Widow’s Son, which drops on March 2nd. This time he is backed with that prometheus type fire from the one and only DJ Premier. Demigodz and the gawd unite for some serious man business. It’s a great union, as Ap sounds really fluid over the legend’s production. If you aren’t looking forward to this project, then you probably aren’t welcome here.
