Spit Gemz – Pendulums (ft. Skrewtape x Dango Forlaine x Doza The Drumdealer) (Video)

Spit Gemz just keeps on stacking wins with each release! Every time I think we hit the pinnacle, he hits you with something next level and the ceiling shifts. Not only does he deliver an incredible sixteen here but I look to see who produced this track because the beat is outrageous…and who do we see? Gemz. Gemz laced one of the illest beats so far this year! And on top of all that he brought along some very talented friends to lace some guest bars. Skrewtape, Dango Forlaine, and Doza The Drumdealer each with unique styles each deliver Grade A bars. This is one of my favorites.

Gemz has a new album dropping in a few weeks so stay tuned!

Single You Out: Skrewtape & Icerocks – Chimney Fish

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.

Single You Out: Skrewtape – Somewhere Fast

Skrewtape is back with a new single which proves to be an oxymoron in it’s title. Somewhere Fast only moves at our emcee’s pace which is particularly methodical. Jazzsoon laces the beat which is no hurry, just like our emcee which really is the point of this song.

Now that karma catch up to you / Seen the warning signs, should have been enough for you / Know shit was tough for you / But you gotta change your ways…it’s must for you

Don’t let people who are going somewhere fast drag you with them.

Single You Out: Ren Thomas x Skrewtape x Slaughter Rico – Clearly Faded

Now this track is one that simply goes!  Vanderslice produces a concise yet dark track that assumes the perfect landscape for Ren Thomas, Skrewtape, and Slaughter Rico to rock over.  I especially appreciate Thomas’ intensity to start the ball rollin’.  He has that intensity that really hits home.

I am not sure where this track is destined to surface or if it’s just a loosie, but it’s certainly dope.

Rob Viktum – Shoot The Messenger (ft. Lil’ Fame, Skrewtape & Guilty Simpson) (Video)

Rob Viktum’s album, Shoot The Messenger, actually drops at midnight tonight on all the digital outlets and this is the title track from the album. You’ve got the grimiest of the grimy on this joint. It’s a tough lineup of emcees with Lil Fame, Skrewtape, and Guilty Simpson on the mic. The production almost has a TV Score feel. Really dope.

I can’t wait to peep the project.
