Man, I could not resist posting this. I love how Intalek and EOM chopped up this track. They take a 90s classic R&B cut, and make the joint slam! EOM’s rendering is nothing short of phenomenal. Intalek’s flow is impressively sophisticated as bobs and weaves his way around the track.
They have this, The LA. VA. EP out that I think is really going to impress folks. I strongly encourage you to give it a listen.
Here’s some smoothness off of Planet Asia’s project, Velour Portraits. You’ve got Rozewood and Hus Kingpin lending their skill sets to the track, so what can go wrong? Nothing. This is definitely something to vibe out to. Production from Sonny Vintage.
Check it.
Vic Orena a/k/a Little Vic is never short on the linguistics. You always get maximum wordplay on his verses. It’s not so much based on metaphors and similes but an overall and relentless flow. There’s also much double etendre to be had here. DJ Insite laces the head nodder on this cut.
Stay impressed folks!
King Magnetic is one of my favorite emcees. Period. As an artist, he delivers time and time again and never spit anything less than sickly. You put him over a DJ Low Cut production, with Nix’on on the cuts, you have a flawless victory.
If you enjoy this jawn, then I suggest you pick up Low Cut’s new album, Dead End.
Mr. Rose laces a dusty, yet jazzy joint for Estee Nack and Recognize Ali to spit on. It’s a laid that back track that also grabs you by the throat if that makes sense. Heavy on bars, yet easy on the ears.
You can find this track on Estee Nack’s new project, #Minimansiondust…. Unfortunately it is only available for streaming now and not for purchase. I hope that changes soon.
Single from Recognize Ali and producer Giallo Point. This is a dope cut. I love the strings Point uses for his production, but that should come as no surprise. His stock has been on the rise over the course of the last couple of years. He is steadily delivering bangers. And when we talk about consistency, you have to give Ali props. Everything he has put out in the last coupe of years has been strong.
New album, Back 2 Mecca, is in the works and I hope we will have it sooner rather than later.
Zilla Rocca and Small Professor are back at it as the group Career Crooks. Rocca promised some new music from the camp this year and here we are. I am much obliged to share. Props for the Mike Miller line.
The album drops May 19th and you should be prepared for that. The camp always keeps it interesting and fresh.
This is another single from Endemic Emerald and Skanks’ forthcoming album, Rapsploitation. I love the static and pop in the production with that lingering piano loop from Endemic. Skanks adds the perfect verbal punch needed to the track. And of course dopeness loves company, so Rim and Shatike, also show capable of serving up some certified illness.
The album is due out on May 30th.
Donnie Darko lets you feel his animosity in sixteen bars over some classic darkness produced by DJ Bless. This is the duo at it’s very best. And when Apollo Valdez links up with the two, they become Pull The Fuckin Trigger.
Look out for the album…I hope it’s coming soon.
Merkules dropped his new album today, Trust Your Gut, and Conor Mcgregor is a cut off of that very album. Merkules drops some rapid fire intensity in some swift bars over an equally amped Stuey Kubrick production. I am definitely going to check out the album.
