William Cooper – Something Ain’t Right (ft. Nature) (Produced by BP)(Video)

A new and insightful single from William Cooper’s album,  God’s Will.  The emceeing, featuring Nature, and production from BP, are dope, but the message here is what needs to get through.

What Cooper is trying to get people to take notice of is that the  Patriot Act is an abuse of power that can effect anyone. No one is immune from it’s abuses.  You may be safe now, but one day you may not be able to say that.

Single You Out: Slicenberg – Pros And CONS (ft. Revelation)

New jawn from the EMS camp!  Slicenberg invites Revalation to drop some bars across his latest creation, Pros & CONS.  The twinge of the guitar in the production gives it a taste of the blues while wrapped around the boom-bap drums.  Meanwhile, Rev truly drops some tough bars at one point making it Biblical referencing Old Testament kingpin Hezekiah.

This joint is destined for Slicenberg (Soulslicers) new project, Keep It Sample.

Single You Out: Endemic Emerald – Crown Royale (ft. Ruste Juxx, Kasim Allah & Top Notch)

This is a new joint from Endemic Emerald’s forthcoming offering, Black Bag Operation.  Emerald has become somewhat of a specialist with that soulful boom bap flavor.  The track has those snapping snares but a well placed vocal sample for some added depth.  I really have not heard him do wrong behind the boards.  Adding their flows to the joint are Ruste Juxx and Kasim Allah.  So you know you have that hardbody flavor.

 

Esh & Arc – Needle In Panic Park (ft. J Ring of Boogie Boy Metal Mouth) (Video)

This video is a pretty dope reconstruction of the Quentin Tarantino flick, Pulp Fiction.  The production from The Arcitype, has a very noir feel to it, that feels just right when coupled with these visuals.  Esh delivers a bevy  of disturbing lines that are nuanced in depravity making this cut a dope, yet sinister addiction.

This cut is from the duo’s new album, Death Doesn’t Want You.

Mayhem & Soulslicers – Patriots (ft. M-Dot, Edo G, and Big Shug) (Video)

Mayhem & Soulslicers release the video for a single they released a month or so ago for the Boston anthem, Patriots.  And while Tom Brady and company may have been knocked out of the playoffs, Mayhem and his affiliates definitely represent.  Mayhem, Edo G, and M-Dot each represent a color from their favorite football team and paint a very vivid portrait of what it means to be from The Bean.

This cut is from the forthcoming album, Soul It May Seem.
