Note:

Give me something different.  Something unique.  Give me…some more music from Forbidden Dialect! I reviewed their first joint, More Than Your Money’s Worth, more than a year ago.  I found it on my own, web surfing and thought it was refreshing.  This time Forbidden Dialect sent me the link to their new album.   I thought to myself, “What are the chances that this album is as good as the first?”   I was incredulous, but to my pleasant surprise, Orange Sessions, is probably better than their first effort.   If More Than Your Money’s Worth is initially fresh, then Orange Sessions is consistently vibrant.  It simply follows in the footsteps of it’s predecessor and expands upon that foundation.   When you have six (count them) talented artists, with diverse backgrounds, then it is inevitable that you are going to get a very unique album.

Koncept – Feel So Good (ft Laurence Lafond-Beauln) (Video)

The BBAS team must all be drinking some secret elixir that enhances their rhyming and production skill because everything they put out is noteworthy.   It’s ALL that damn good.  Koncept really is bringing it with his last two singles.  I’ve always like him as an emcee but these tracks (in particular this one) really have him stepping up a notch.  The production by Tranzformer,…awesome.  Love this joint.

Single You Out: Redhead – Can Only Blame Yourself (ft. Laelo Hood)

I like getting things like this in my email.  You know…dope music type things.  I have no information on the artist Redhead but the song really speaks volumes.  I truly like everything about this song.  The production is nice (Ratatat) and the verses are well thought out.  A guest shot from Laelo Hood does nothing but help.  If you like this cut, it is off his mixtape which just dropped (yet to check it out), The Schemata.

Interview: UllNevaNo (2011)

Hip Hop is probably the most dynamic form of music right now.  Albums and mixtapes get dropped almost on a daily basis.  New artists are emerging and then fading away as quickly as they came.  This leads me to bring you HHD’s latest artist spotlight on, Baltimore’s native son, UllNevaNo, so you don’t forget the name.  I caught wind of his latest single, Hand Movements, and was instantly impressed.  So just like I got put onto the man, so I put you on. This artist is not to be slept on and will not just be another flash in the pan.  So enjoy the interview and then check his music.
