Single you Out: Brown Bag AllStars – Psycho Dwarf 2011 (Beatnuts Tribute)

 

So this song is a two prong success. First it serves as a reminder as to how dope The Beatnuts are. They are one of the most underrated crews in hip hop history. So many dope songs have come from The Beatnuts and they have never gotten their full due. This beat is a classic and comes from their very first EP, Intoxicated Demons.

Secondly, if there was a group who was equipped to do service to this cut, it is the Brown Bag AllStars. These guys do an incredible job of taking this classic hip hop song and give it a modern flair while still maintaining the integrity of track.

Single You Out: Chino XL – N.I.C.E.

Ask me who is the illest lyricist of all time and Chino XL’s names has to enter into that conversation.  He is one of those artists that just calls you attention when he spits his bars.  Just a man who is in total command of his craft.  I can not wait until his album,  The RICANstruction: The Black Rosary, drops.  But if this is what the entire project will sound like, I think the populous is in for a treat.  Enjoy the first single from the album!

Single You Out: Just Flowing – Be So Cruel

I wanted to share both of this new track with you guys.  Just Flowing has been on a serious grind as of late.  When I listened to his first mixtape I could hear the talent but I wanted to hear some more polished tracks and sound from him before I started posting his material.  A few months later, I hit you all off with his track w/ Mav, Heartless. I thought that track was honestly very dope and deserved recognition.  But now the man hits me with another, more meaningful banger, which further illustrate the man’s talent and progression.

Single You Out: Unknown Prophets – Knockin’ Out Impostors (ft. Planet Asia)

The Unknown Prophets just recently became familiar with me when emcee, Big Jess, dropped a double album for free earlier this year.  I really liked a lot of the material and vowed I would not sleep again, hence I am putting you on to one sick sounding track that features none other than Planet Asia.  This cut is so very ill.  Everything about this track warrants a hip hop fan’s attention.  Be on the look out for World Premiere 2 this Fall.

Slaine – Borrowed Time (Feat. Checkmark & Lu Balz) (Video)

Slaine’s new album A World With No Skies 2.0 just dropped today.  It is a really dope album that should be supported.  The man always puts a lot of energy and emotion in his work so make sure you at least check it out.  Here is the first video from the project.  One of the guests is Checkmark who once was the frontman for the Skitzofreniks.  He has a project himself coming out cald Vita Matta.
