Caucasian – Boom Bap Blueprint (Video)

http://youtu.be/7EzIVAAoqVE

Alright, I live in Texas and when I think of hip hop music, I am not exactly thinking the Pan Handle area but you know what, Caucasian (who hails from Lubbock) can put it down.  He’s got that classic flow that’s well, associated with boom bap.  He sounds like he’s directly out of 1996 with his voice (that is a compliment).  The production from Sivey has a definitively bluesy feel that is reminiscent of some Stevie Ray Vaughan guitar licks.

Caucasian’s album, Diggin’ The Shelf, is hitting stores soon…

Single You Out: KON Sci of MindsOne – Felt Tip

AndBeyond-Cover

I ran through KON Sci’s album, And Beyond,  once last night and I was really impressed.  There is some real intelligent lyricism on this album, and this is one of the many impressive cuts that can be found within.  As for this particular cut, I can’t do any better at describing it in this case than the PR person at Soulspazm:

The song brings to light KON Sci’s deep appreciation for his tool of creativity, his pen. Backed by a soothing soul voice sample, KON Sci expresses his admiration for his writing utensil through the use of metaphor and analogy.
