The man Kyle Hubbard is back at it again, thank goodness. I personally think he is the nicest lyricist my state of Texas has to offer. He has that blend of intelligence and grittyness I appreciate. His new album, You’re Not That Special drops in two weeks, on March 20th. And even though, you’re not that special, you can trust that his new album will be.
Video treatment for a track off of Chaundon’s album, The Jammington. It’s short but sweet. I expect nothing less than a dope product from the man and he once again delivers. A model of consistency to fans and contemporaries alike.
I am probably one of the few people that haven’t caught on the Roc Marciano bandwagon. That’s not to say I don’t own his album, because I do. But this track, Poltergeist, produced by The ArchDruids is really nice. He sounds dope over this kind of spooky production.
Wow. What a nice surprise this was! I own most of these jawns from Critical, but to see them all in once place is impressive. The man has put in work, and this project puts that into perspective. Critical is a very talented emcee on the Creative Juices roster and has an album dropping later this year entitled, Electrical Tape. My favorite joints are his collaborations with Little Vic which are done under the monniker, Hidden Agenda.
Check this mixtape out. You are bound to find some interesting gems.
I am fully on board with the Never So Deep movement. Sutter Kain (DJ Bless) and Donnie Darko have done so much to impress me over the last six or so months. I know that I am late on this, but it’s better to be late to the party than never to have arrived at all.
As usual, Sutter Kain, laces a banging beat. The keys in production remind me of an organ that the Phantom of the Opera would be playing. The emcees all sledgehammer the track (means hitting it hard). Really dope music coming from this camp so stay tuned…
Two of my favorite emcees made it on the cut together. It’s been way too long since I have heard either King Mez or Thee Tom Hardy on a track, nonetheless together. This track is spectacular. The production meshes with the title as it is spaced out. It’s the kind of music and rhymes that just transport you. Can’t wait to hear more…
The dynamic duo of Soul Khan and Akie Bermiss is back! Wellstone is the first single off of the Wellstone EP that is dropping on DJ Booth on March 12th (less than a week a way if you are indeed counting).
Deejay Element is on the beat and he gives this song a very melodic feel and blends all the sounds really well. Content wise Soul Khan narrates on the ills and the apathy of our political system and is held down by the vocals of Akie Bermiss on the hook.
Wonderful music…
I knew UG was making new music but had no ideas his partner in rhyme, Phantasm was still doing his thing. This joint is unexpected and exciting to hear. It has been a decade at least since we have heard from this team. Nick Wiz is back behind the boards now just as he was back then and he puts some heat behind this joint.
I hope to hear more.
Yet another song gets the visual treatment from the Outerspace album, My Brother’s Keeper. If you haven’t copped that joint yet, you are sleeping. We have showcased the duo a few times and each time they demonstrate how dope their music is. Pick that up if you like what you hear!
Little Vic can post these references all day and they are going to wind up as a single on this blog. One of my favorite flows in the game. This time he teams up with Nature for the cut Open Your Eyes. the beat is provided by long time collaborator, Velotz.
