Single You Out: Ancient Alienz – Angels Of Death (ft. Donnie Darko x Sutter Kain)

 

DJ Bless (Sutter Kain) has been talking about this project for a while and now we get our first sampling of what it’s going to be about.  And if we get a whole album of this type of music, then consider me all in.  This track starts out soulful and then the darkness sets in.   The piano and the vocal sample that Sutter Kain provides is just the right mood for these bars.  And speaking of bars,  Ancient Alienz can spit some!  Be on the lookout for their new project in the coming months.

Single You Out: Main Course – Bully

Here’s an artist that shot me over his album, A Beautiful Blend, more than just a few days ago.  I listened through it and was pretty impressed with the quality of music.  The first thing that you will notice is his gruff voice and hard delivery.  He definitely has the God-given intangibles to emcee and set himself apart from the pack.

At any rate, I wanted to share with you all a track from the album. Bully is the track I chose because of it’s uptempo funky vibe.  Main Course devours this beat…

Zilla Rocca – Full Spectrum 2 (ft. Has-Lo & Open Mike Eagle) (Video)

I was just commenting last week on innovative Zilla Rocca and Has-Lo are on the mic device.  They aren’t typical or standard and they continue to push the art forward.  You add Open Mic Eagle to this track and it just becomes downright revolutionary.  This my friends is the intricacies of concept and the human language.  Enjoy…

Note:

Juan Deuce is not for the faint of heart.  If you have a short memory span and don’t like well-woven wordplay he might not be for you.  Throughout No Sweat, Juan Deuce takes concepts and ideas that don’t ordinarily blend and makes hip hop magic.  In addition to that, this album is produced by some of my favorite producers in the business with the likes of Falside, The Audible Doctor, and J57 making contributions.

Meta P – Dragonfly (My Other Heartbeat) (Video)

I am not familiar with Meta P and really didn’t know what I was in store for when I checked out his video.  I thought it could be yet another story of love lost or something like that based on the title, but the artist caught me.  This song details both life and loss and is a reminder that art that is birthed in emotion can be incredible.  You can tell that Meta P was bringing it with everything he could.    I felt this…
