It’s a very soulful, yet heavy joint. Although, I find any time you have Wise Intelligent on your cut, it becomes heavy. Dude is just deep. This is everything we expect from a joint from The Audible Doctor…no less than excellence.
Serge Severe x Zapata – Silver Novelist (2012)
Artist: Serge Severe x Zapata
Album: Silver Novelist
Source: Artist
Tracklisting:
1. Silver Novelist
2. Seasons
3. Dead Poets
4. Casually Obscene
5. Hunger Games
5. Magic-Less World
Note:
When Serge Severe drops a project I take notice. The man is amongst my favorite emcees with his style and delivery. It’s something that is as different as it is dope. For this project he teams up with producer Zapata. Zapata’s sound is a little less traditional than lets say, Terminill (Service Without A Smile). His style is ambient and ethereal. And while I may prefer the Service Without A Smile when comparing the two projects, Silver Novelist is undoubtedly worth the listeners time on more than one occasion.

Single You Out: Godilla – Terror (ft. Aeyone, Glomgold, Burke The Jurke & J.O. The Last Man) (Prod Hakiki Bela)
I spotted this track over at TheHipHopHead and was really impressed by how hard this joint banged. First off, Godilla is that man right now. Maybe not a lot people know about him but this emcee can deliver the verbal artillery…consistently.
This cut if off of his upcoming album, Altered Beast. So check it out by visiting the TheHipHopHead by clicking the link below.

Chaundon – Prosperity (ft. YC The Cynic & DJ Flash) (Video)
Oh yes, The Jammington. Oh you slept on that, didn’t you? You seemingly forgot how ill Chaundon can be behind the microphone? No mind…there’s still time to pick up the album and right the wrongs you have committed.
This video is simple yet also exceptional. I dig the contrasting styles of Chaundon and YC The Cynic.
Friday Feature: illMEASURED – Thought You Knew (w/ UllNevaNo)
illMEASURED is a producer out of the DMV area that I have been checking for since DAY ONE. Ever since I heard some of his production off of the Rome Cee album, The Grey Area, I new that this guy was hidden talent that just needed more exposure to his craft. The man can create productions that range from jazzy and laid back to those boom-bap bangers we all know and crave. He is as exceptional as he is diverse. So every Friday throughout the month of September we are going to be looking at new and old and projects from this producer to showcase his talents.
For this week’s installment, I present to you a recent cut illMEASURED produced for another HHD mainstay, UllNevaNo. The cut is called Thought You Knew. This song is a great demonstration of how illMEASURED intermingles so many different sounds to create the perfect track. The horns, the vocal sample, and the scratching is a definitive hip hop moment. It’s easy to hear why he is being featured here in just under four and a half minutes. It certainly doesn’t hurt that UllNevaNo more than owns up to his end of the bargain by dropping bar after bar of heat.
Enjoy…
Single You Out: M.A. Cee-Kings – Flow Of Silence
We may have missed last Friday’s feature but I will not deny this man’s potential. He delivers another raw and dope flow that I had to share. The joint is dark and M.A. Cee-Kings rips some ruthless bars for us to enjoy. Go to this man’s blog, follow his Twitter line, and check out his Soundcloud page, but make sure you do not continue to sleep!
Single You Out: Apathy & Celph Titled – School For Scoundrels (Prod Ayatollah)
This joint was originally recorded back in 2007, which just goes to show you that music from Apathy and Celph Titled is timeless. The two really are a great combination. This track can be found on the Coalmine Records compilation, Unearthed, which will see the light in early 2013.
L.U.K.E – The Parlement (ft. Sage & Abstract) (Video)
I introduce to you, HHD’s latest find…L.U.K.E ! It’s really good to see younger (younger being quite relative) artists embracing hip hop. L.U.K.E. and his compadres, Sage and Abstract prove to pretty lyrical individuals over this Little Villain production. It’s definitely something hip hop heads can appreciate. Be on the lookout for more material from our brethren!
Elley Jeeze & Fundamental – Trilogy (Stars/Always You/Showin’ Off) (Video)
This was just recently shot over to me by the producer of these joints, Fundamental. And unlike many of the other projects I receive, this one was very polished and show a great deal of promise. Even though this video has been out there a while, it still is relavent as it is the first single for the duo’s album which drops in October, entitled H.I.T.S.
Every part of the video shows off a different aspect of talent from both emcee and producer. Enjoy!
