Late November was a tough time for me to post so I am making up for the lost time and making sure I make you all aware of what J57 is cooking up for his 2057 EP, dropping next month perhaps. I can hope. These tracks are all dope but my favorite is this last one, Pulp Fiction ft. Koncept. What pray tell is your favorite of the bunch?
This list of emcees is the “in-list” right now. I mean these guys are all very sought after guest shots right now. This is that ‘classic’ type of posse cut right here. The beat is titillating but not overbearing with the keys. This is the first single off of J57’s forthcoming EP, 2057. You know we will be watching out for that!
This may be my favorite solo cut from Koncept. It’s produced by Tranzformer, who produced his latest EP as well.
Every week! Brown Bag Allstars are doing it! You better get on board with what Soul Khan is doing or your body could be buried in the fields too. This track is off of his Acknowledgement EP which you could proudly own for w hopping $4. Go get it big spender!
What did I say? I said every week we are going to get something new from the Brown Bag AllStars camp and sure enough here we go! This time Koncept drops off the visuals from one of the tracks off of his and Tranzformer’s collaborative effort, More Than Meets The Eye.
I don’t think there has been a more productive crew in 2011 than the Brown Bag AllStars. It seems like every week one of the members has something new to share. This DJ Brace remix to Got It All is my favorite track to their recently released, Brown Bag Season, Vol. 1. The video is pretty entertaining.
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.
The Audible Doctor of Brown Bag All Stars released this track off of his forthcoming, The Spread EP (Vocal Version) dropping on March 12th. June Haze sounds pretty good over this beat and I look forward to seeing what other collaborations we have in store next week.
Some visuals from Soul Khan’s forthcoming album, Soul Like Khan. If you don’t like Soul Khan or Brown Bag All Stars, don’t come back here by the way. I don’t want your negative energy contaminating my web space. 🙂
