Sketch – Virginia Tec-9 (Video)

Aaaaah hell!  The DMV is not stopping!  This is one of my favorite tracks so far this year.  Sketch is new to me but he does mass amounts of damage on microphones.   J-Scrilla is not to me and you would have to be deaf not to feel this one.  The visuals dropped a couple of weeks ago but I was out of commission. so enjoy.  Also be on the lookout for that album in July.  I am really looking forward to it.

 

Interview: L*Roneous (2011)

L*Roneous blessed me with an opportunity to share a part of his journey both musically and personally.  L*Roneous has been someone I respect more so as a fan than any other role I play.  He was putting out music at a time in my life when perhaps it mattered most.  His intelligence, voice, and consciousness resonate with me today in both former and current projects.  I hope you all get an opportunity to listen to this emcee’s exceptional talent through his equally important message.  I recently reviewed his latest album, Notes Of The Righteous Outlaw, and it certainly is one of the best 2011 has to offer.  This interview has been a long time coming, so without further ado…

Note:The clean/edited version of Inglorious Beta dropped last year, minus the bonus cuts that you see on this current version. It was worth reviewing back then but it didn’t feel complete with the censorship. Now on, April 26th 2011, K-Beta unleashes the project as it was originally intended to be listened to, four letter words and all. I put the date in the post so you can write it down. It is the day somebody released a rare, classic album. I feel like once a year you will see an album that embodies the word “classic”. Last year it was The Left for their product, Gas Mask. Now, K-Beta’s Inglorious Beta needs to be mentioned in the same category.

Single You Out: Sketch – Virginia Tec-9

I got this off of K-Beta’s Twitter but you don’t care where it came from, I know.  You care that it is dope, and it definitely is.  I am really ignorant when it comes to this artist, but Sketch’s bars sound  really dope over this bangin’ J-Scrilla beat, and it meets all the criteria for being posted on this blog.  This is something to love.  Be on the lookout for more Sketch in the near future. (I am telling you that this beat is killer, agree?)
