Single You Out: The Tangiers – Wrath Of The Titans (ft. M-Dot x RJ Payne)

Ohhhh damn…you all are not ready for this…but nonetheless here it is. RJ Payne is one of the most sought over collaborative talents right now. His pen game is just ruthless. And here you have The Tangiers (Benefit and Kaine) inviting him along with M-Dot to trade bars over a track that is also produced by M-Dot. The end result is just spectacular. This joint is exceptional and gets you hype on the abundance of rhyme and rhythm.

This track is coming from The Tangiers forthcoming album, The House Always Wins.

Single You Out: M-Dot – Today (ft. E.M.S.)

MD2020-WORK-CD-SIZE-PART-2-500X500

 

This song just made my week.  No matter what happens the rest of the week, this song from M-Dot and company is a major win!  The bass line on this jawn made my neck sore.   And the flows…my god the flows, were impeccable.  M-Dot can stay silent for months and then drop a gem like this and instantly remind us of his greatness.  And I meant to use that word…great.  He has a really sophisticated way with words when rocking the mic. The jam definitely has an old school appeal but easily something I could see getting some universal love.

Jake LaDOTta drops for free tomorrow and may knock some of these end of the year lists on their heads.  Check back at DJ Booth for the good word…

Single You Out: Benefit – Killa Kannibals (ft. PH and Famoso)

BENEFIT

 

As Benefit readies his next “timing” project, Timing Of A Godfather, he unleashed Killa Kannibals.  A cut in which heavy hitters, PH and Famoso join him on the mic.   It’s got all of those head-nodding qualities that you are all always craving.   In particular check that third verse from Famoso.  He incorporates some Trayvon Martin and Magna Carta / Holy Grail references that definitely capture your attention.

Single You Out: Benefit – Mind Running (ft. M-Dot and Famoso) (Produced By DC Soulplusmind) Cuts By DJ Grazzhoppa

Mind Running (Art)

When EMS comes a’ knocking with new music, I am always answering the door.  What we have here is a very soulful track from DC Soulplusmind and some excellent DJ skills exhibited by DJ Grazhoppa.   Those two things already made this track a gem but then you add the likes of M-Dot, Famoso, and Benefit to the mic duties and you have something superlative.  This track is off of the Benefit’s upcoming mixtape,  Timing Of the Godfather.

Note:

Our reigning champ, M-Dot, shot this project over to me many moons ago, while he has been galavanting around Europe on tour with the likes of that group you may have heard of,…Slaughterhouse.  Unfortunately it has taken me this long to get to do a write up on the project.  Really, Layer Cake, is a collection of guest spots, features, and rarities that M-Dot has put out or been a part of in the last 12 months.  While it isn’t an album, there are plenty of dope tracks collected together worth talking about.
