This first joint … Read More “SkyBlew – The Quest For Dreams f. Faith Elle” »
Red Pill, having just signed a multi-album deal with MMG, decided to let Mello fans know that he has put in his 10,000 hours and is ready for the solo artist limelight. His opening track is produced by new-teammate Oddisee, who back in 2011 after watching Red Pill preform at SXSW spoke to Apollo Brown … Read More “Red Pill-learning to punch” »
I cannot stop listening to this song by Dem Atlas. In a just world he would get way more exposure and thoughtful hip-hop like this would get some shine but instead we are left with drug lord strip club anthems being played to people all day long. Artists like Dem Atlas is why I … Read More “deM atlaS – Drive North (Video)” »
Andre DeSaint is a Florida native who has a classic lyrical style of hip-hop. “Change the world” is a braggadocious affair with the introspective point that “he promised to say what others never say but he can’t change the world everyday”. Given the region and state he is coming out of, I think we should … Read More “André DeSaint – Change the World” »

Chester does … Read More “Chester Watson-spliffs featuring bobby raps” »

Probably because I was covered up with my many duties associated with being a super human hip hop head or maybe it slipped passed my radar. Either way this album belonged squarely on my list … Read More “Tragedy Khadafi Ft Spit Gemz, Shabaam Sahdeeq & IQ Da Wize – Gods of War Prod by Nick Soundz” »
Mr Len of company flow fame connected with Murs to create this banger oddly enough entitled “My Final underground song”.

Hip-hop has always had a direct relationship with comics. Fantogram recently released a cool series entitled “hip-hop family tree” telling the story of many hip hop legends in comic format. I felt like that was brilliantly done and the art was awesome. They even made the pages resemble the type of paper comics were printed … Read More “Run the Jewels and Marvel comics team up” »
