SciFu Stu is remarkably consistent. For years he has been producing beats laced with banging drums and melodic samples, and ‘Thru Life’, the title cut of his next album, is a continuation of just that.

Motifs and breaks begin to form some semblance of pattern, before being snatched away.
The thing about K-Embry’s work is..
“My Word Is Bond…” or so they say, but Bill Biggz gives his word on Variation Music‘s latest 7″. It’s got a real dark, old school feel to it – the beat on the original actually sounds really on that UK vibe – and in classic fashion features an original mix on the A side with a remix on the B side, accompanied with instrumentals. Rugged underground hip-hop at its best, and you can cop it at the VM website.
The Grindhouse Gang return with their second single ’730′, bringing along the legendary wordsmith Canibus. As expected, the gang deliver another brutal verbal thrashing. The track is produced by Grim Reaperz and features scratches from Judder.
