Goldini Bagwell – Say Anything (Video)

Goldini Bagwell is anything but ordinary, as a matter of fact, he may be the most artistic emcees I have ever come across.  That artistry comes across in his music and in these videos.  In all honesty, I didn’t know what was happeneing until the very end, so a credit to the director and the artist on this one.  Really brilliant work. Easily a candidate for video of the year.

If you dug this song, make sure you check out the entire album, produced by Pmpee, Secondhand Smoke (The Extended Cut).

Single You Out: Bo Jankans – Level Up (ft. Reef the Lost Cauze and Kane Mayfield)

artworks-000090614799-pc403z-t500x500

New single from Bo Jankans, from the forthcoming project, The Motormouth EP: Act II.  For the purposes of this track he brings in Kane Mayfield and Reef the Lost Cause, making this track bang a little extra hard.  I am guessing Scrilla Ventura is behind the boards though no credit was listed.  It sounds like one of his concoctions to be sure.  I really enjoyed the first project and am looking forward to this one.

Note:

Hip Hop Dependency is proud to be a supporter of UllNevaNo and his latest project under the ‘Color’ series flag, I WONDER What Color Ima Use Next.   If obvious signs elude you, the title refers to UllNevaNo flowing over Jamla’s front man,  9th Wonder’s beats.

If you are not familiar with UllNevaNo’s lyrical dexterity, two things become apparent:  1)  You don’t check Hip Hop Dependency very often 2) His latest project is a great opportunity for you to make up for lost time.  The man has been repping the B-More scene for more than just a few years, and is a hip hop staple there.  But his name is starting to buzz on more of a global scale much in part to the ‘Color Series’.  So don’t front or delay, stream or download the latest project, or simply get left behind.

Single You Out: Apollo Brown & Ras Kass – H2O (ft. Pharaoh Monch and Rakaa Iriscience)

artworks-000089781646-3lvemb-t500x500

 

When Apollo Brown and Ras Kass first announced their collaborative album, Blasphemy (due out Oct 28th), it instantly became one of the most anticipated albums for 2014.  H2O is the first single from the project and this should put all heads on notice.   It’s a smooth and soulful offering featuring incredible lyricism.  You would be hard pressed to find something as dope as this track out now.   Enjoy!

Sleep (The Fraternity) – I Shot Lincoln (ft. Kue The Vandal) (Video)

The Fraternity stays the course and could do no wrong in 2014 and this track, I Shot Lincoln, proves that fact.   Sleep and Kue The Vandal go off on Dope Antelope’s sinister production.  Antelope is hands down my producer of the year if this pace continues.  I can’t hide that fact.  No one puts darkness to music like Antelope.  And if you like lines, these emcees have got lines….

Most wanted like Hitler in a room full of Zionists…. (Kue The Vandal)

Single You Out: Diabolic – Diabolical Sound (prod. by DJ Premier)

artworks-000088560360-qa2a5c-t500x500

Diabolic scores a major win for his forthcoming album, Fightin’ Words, with this DJ Premier produced single.  Now to be perfectly honest, if I didn’t see the credit, I wouldn’t have been able to ID this as Primo production.  It certainly has a dark sound which suits Diabolic just fine.  He flings words at the listener that leave us scrambling to keep up with the ill metaphors and wordplay.  Album drops in late September.
