A beast, that’s what Red Eye is when he gets behind the microphone. I have no idea where this track is destined but for now I am just grateful for it’s appearance. Also logging mic duties for this track are Marvalyss and MidaZ. MoSS hooks up the production and don’t think I didn’t notice that Natural Elements vocal loop. Let these youngsters know!
This is what it’s all about folks. I created HHD for artists like this. Siyah and Billy James are some young and upcoming artists from Morganton, North Carolina and there ain’t nothing wrong with that. These guys have a great flow and demeanor on the microphone. The beat from Bonobo is exceptional. I love the loop he uses. All in all it’s a great cut. So be on the lookout for these young men in the near future. It’s evident that they understand what good hip hop is and are set on making it.
Reks put the release of Revolution Cocktail on ice until February 26th, but he did release this Numonics produced gem featuring Bishop Lamont. As per usual, Reks delivers on point lyricism, this time with a political flair. Can’t wait for the project…
Peter Leo is keeping up his collision course with success. This is three successive dope singles from the man and this is the one that bangs the hardest. But what can you expect when he teams up with the man, Nutso? Nutso gets the utmost respect on HHD. That’s an emcee’s emcee right there. DJ Supa Dave claims responsibility for this banger.
New joint from the emcee Cyrano Sinatra and producer Centric. Trouble features guest rhymes from Skyzoo and Trife. Centric lends a banging, yet slightly funky, production to cover all the auditory bases. Sounds dope by all my standards. Sinatra and Centric have a collaborative project dropping, Back 2 Lyfe. As of yet, there is no said date.
I first peeped Ruslan’s music when I head his collaboration with Blame One and Braille entitled, Domesticated. That was a really dope record. More recently, Ruslan dropped an album today entitled Carry On, and this is one of the lead singles for the project. It’s quite soulful and I think you will feel the uplifting vibe.
I have never heard of Real Talk, but Miami Beat Wave I know so I was bound to check this out and what I heard was one hot track. Miami Beat Wave always brings their unique brand of production and Real Talk showed ‘really’ well. They had some hot lines and an overall dope lyrical flavor.
This track can be found on Real Talk’s EP, Louder Than Words.
Well, here’s something that I consider concealed dope from the black hole known as my ‘inbox’. The track fuses great production and some tight rhyme schemes. Really feeling this…
Fundamental is an emcee and producer from Toronto. And this track is his from front to back. He spits the bars and crafts the beat. Very nice work indeed.
This track is a part of his upcoming mixtape, Expected Everywhere: Vol. 2.
This single comes live and direct from Koncept’s Malt Disney project as a bonus cut. I am assured this project will be mind blowing. If this song is any indication, we are on the right track for that sentiment.
This cut features Reks and is a little on the funky side with Deejay Element operating behind the boards. Very dope.
I usually never post a project without some sort of review but this is really important. Supastition is back! He is one of my all-time favorite emcees. He was retired from the game a couple of years ago but after some conversations with his contemporaries, he is back at it again. That is to every hip hop head’s benefit!
The Blackboard EP is his first salvo after coming back to the game. You can download this for free, but that’s not what this is about. This is about true fans of hip hop supporting good music. I encourage my readership to drop at least $5 in the man’s pocket. Show him that people still care and support. He makes great music, just listen below…
(I will be posting a review of this project next week…so look for that!)
