This is hella dope. The promo with this release:
Sha Stimuli is ready to drop his new project The Calling and in conjunction with its release The Beatz & Lyrics Show presents this exclusive new track The Calling, produced by Grammy award-winning producer/artist, Focus… and three-time Scribble Jam Champion DJ Presyce who laced the cuts. This is the second leak from the radio show
Don’t Hold Ya Breath: The long-awaited first single from Marcus D’s sophomore LP, Melancholy Hopeful.
The fusion of sultry strings and mellow clarinet, coupled with biting, yet endearing lyrics from veteran jazz-hop wordsmith, Funky DL, displays both artists at the top of their game. Bolo, Marcus D’s protege of sorts, also brings a classically smooth remix to the proverbial jazz-lounge table. The results are simply too good to be deemed “B-side” material in the traditional sense of the word.
This isn’t just good jazz-hop, this is good music.
Aiigghhtt, some new stuff from Brick Lane’s Mikill (pron. myke-ill) Pane. Fresh from ‘Guiness And Blackcurrent‘, ‘The Morris Dancer EP’ is set to be released on the 13th of Febuary. Really like this dude, original, ‘down to earth’ n witty lyrics that you never really get bored of. And he has a good taste in shoes.
For some reason I can’t embed the EP in WIB, there’s no option check the link… The track featured in the article is ‘I Like You’.
Thanks to Don Da None, for reaching out with the above.
French rap activist from projects like Connecticut with Fulgeance & Blockbass, or inventive trio called Triton, Don Da None is an Emcee who push up lyrics to a more ”poetic” dimension, a real writen-meaning, spelling a rhyme like a movie. Smoking ambiances on “les Démons sont éternels”, love mood on “Mélancolie” or seducing-shinny-darkness on “Nébuleuse”…The music around this lyrics (ok, you must learn french now…!) is clear, brilliantly sample-based from soul,..
The Magnificent Ruffians and Owbese present: Tentatively Thinking! Featuring production by Owbese, Dj Ad-Seg, Captain, Lazy G, Dizmemberone, M Padron and more. This album was inspired by the need for dope hiphop. No radio, drop it like it’s hot, do the duggie dance type songs on this album. If you want that, all you have to do is turn on the radio. But if you want real hiphop music, then you will need to dig and download this album. The title Tentatively Thinking was brought about because at first, we never..
What is this? Is Mobb Deep getting back on to that down to earth hiphop that gave them fame in the first place? Production by Havoc is tight and Prodigy’s lyrics are not that bad. I had to share this one…I can’t be the only one felling this?! Or am I the eternal hopeful that Mobb Deep might one day come back to releasing some good ish?
“Conquer” from the EP “Black Cocaine” to be released November 21st.
