I’ve got to put you onto this new project from Skrewtape and producer Icerocks. It takes a special artist to drop $30 on a digital release, but I have a lot of faith in these guys. I didn’t listen to a snippet before I purchased. I knew what I was going to be getting. It’s the soulful uncut hip hop music that can do no wrong. On the track Chimney Fish, Icerocks laces that neck snapping rhythm, while Skrewtape delivers that gravelly flow in the cut like no one else can. Highly recommend you checking this album out: Shoebox Sonata.
IceRocks x Rome Streetz x MadHattan – Kennedy (Video)
Crossing The Rubicon, is the really dope album from producer IceRocks, featuring a host of talented emcees. Two of those emcees, Rome Streetz and Madhattan, join him on this soulful banger, Kennedy. I love how IceRocks uses this sample to his beckoning while the emcees flip precise sixteens.
Both of these emcees really get it done, professionally. I’ve been listening to ALOT of Madhattan over the last couple of years, and very few have put in the work Rome Streetz is doing over the same time period.
Madhattan – Canal St (Video)
Madhattan is one of my favorite artists right now. I really felt his last project, Brown Water Bible, and all of his features have been on point. Here on Canal St, we get Icrerocks produced heat, while Madhattan details what the street life is like in his neighborhood.
His new album, Sink Or Swim, is out now. I have given it a couple of spins, and it’s dope from the jump to the conclusion. Make sure you check that out.
Madhattan – Curtains (prod. by IceRocks) (Video)
Here’s a dope narrative from Madhattan and IceRocks from their collaborative experience, Brown Water Bible. It’s a slower pace and deliberate in it’s illness but believe me you will feel this one! I just copped the album and haven’t quite listened to it yet but you know you are going to get the realness with these two working together.
Skrewtape – Sell It For Two (Video)
Skrewtape is back with some new dope with his latest single, Sell It For Two. This song has a chill and uptempo vibe to it that just kind of glides into those eardrums.
Skrewtape is just one of those dudes that has done no wrong behind the mic. Always delivering that raspy illness in his music. He is due for a new album so hopefully that’s on the way.
Single You Out: IceRocks – 3 Eyes Closed (ft. Calamity Chris, Spit Gemz & SicWitDaPen)
Some vintage feeling hip hop from producer IceRocks and comrades-of-the-mic Calamity Chris, Spit Gemz, and SicWitDaPen. The vibe definitely has a 1990s sound, and takes me back to when I first heard Jemini The Gifted One…add that’s a strong compliment. The emcees each bring a different type of ammo to the salvo but it all comes together. Calamity Chris has a very laid back deliver, Gemz always brings a ferocity, and SicWitDaPen closes with a bridge between the two styles.
IceRocks new album, Live From The Bunker is presumed to be around the corner!
