If there’s anybody who can get the listener ready for war it’s Born Unique and Spit Gemz, backed by sounds and scratches from Pete Twist and DJ TMB, respectively. The strings and scratches lead the way as the emcees leave a wake of carnage along their sixteens. The song is a warning to those who lead a false narrative in their music. Body bags included in this one!
Single You Out: Blame One & Preed One – Walk With Me
I missed out earlier this month when the single Walk With Me from Blame One and Preed One came out, and it’s time for some atonement because this song is so good. Blame One’s bars hit clearly and cleverly over some really smooth and soulful production from Preed and DJ TMB (a renowned turntabalist) puts the finishing touches on the song. This song is a beautiful presentation of what hip hop is capable of.
Automatic like an uzi going rapid fire / I struck / And now you know you suck / Like a pacifier
Single You Out: UNiK-StYleZ – More Style
We’ve got an uptempo and high octane single to share today from UNiK-StYleZ with whom I have some familiarity and may have a project or two in the library. Here he’s flexing his own lyrical dexterity over some production from Duzk Beats and cuts by one of the best in the business, DJ TMB. Enjoy for your listening pleasure.
Single You Out: Words x DJ TMB – All I Want (ft. Napoleon Da Legend x Venomous 2000)
It’s been a minute since I have heard some new music from Words, so as soon as I saw this I had to give it a listen. And here he is linking up with the very talented and respected DJ TMB and emcees Napoleon Da Legend and Venomous2000. It’s a dope track as could be anticipated and coming off the forthcoming album, The Winterborns.
Single You Out: Ren Thomas x Nem Nieves – Elephant Print (cuts by DJ TMB)
Another dope track from the man, Ren Thomas. I love the distorted guitar sample from Nem Nieves. It’s different and instantly grabs your attention and Thomas flows like few others. He has bars for days. I love his flow, along with his creative punchlines, and humor. This joint is coming off of their future collaborative project, Thirty Thr33.
Single You Out: Gary Rue – Dead Bolt
Gary Rue is back with a new joint from his forthcoming album, The Burgeoning Nihilist, which is due out in late June. I am pretty excited for his new project, as everything he has put out to this point, I have really enjoyed. Deadbolt is produced by Vic Grimes (quite remarkably by the way…love this sound) with DJ TMB on the cuts.
So dope! Enjoy!
Snowgoons – Wardance b/w Bad Generals (ft Recognize Ali, Lord Goat. DJ TMB, Ren Thomas) (Video)
This is a video combo single from the Snowgoons’ recent album, Snowgoons Infantry. It’s two dope tracks mashed together to showcase some of the talent that’s contained on their many highly regarded projects. The first track features (once again) Recognize Ali, Lord Goat, and DJ TMB. The second cut features bars from Ren Thomas who is just vicious with his sixteens these days.
Single You Out: Elz Sinatra – Appetite For Destruction
I always enjoy new music from Elz Sinatra and this one is epic and hits you with some extra fervor. I am loving this beat from DJ TMB while Sinatra and Ragnar Vallon come with a rugged display of lyricism.
Single You Out: Eff Yoo x The Kurse – Saturn’s Rings (ft. Recognize Ali)
Eff Yoo and producer The Kurse release the single, Saturn’s Rings for their recently dropped album, Spicaso Deluxe, which is out now! Everything is great about this track. The haunting production, the bars from both Eff Yoo and Recognize Ali both ring bells, and then you get the scratches from DJ TMB which takes the track to next level in my opinion.
If you love this joint, you really should obligate yourself to check out the album.
Single You Out: Recognize Ali – Holy War (ft. Vinnie Paz)
Recognize Ali links up with Vinnie Paz to exchange sixteens over a banger from B-Sun. I really enjoy the guitar sample used by B-Sun on this track, and DJ TMB really adds some excellent scratching to the joint. And let’s face it, Ali has become one of the preeminent names in hip-hop, while Paz just shows he’s only getting better with his now legendary grind. Excellent hip-hop.
New project, Recognition, is coming…when…I know not.
