SoulStice "That Thang", from the movie soundtrack for "The Blind Side"


Huge shout out to the homie SoulStice for having his track "That Thang" chosen for the movie soundtrack for "The Blind Side". Dope. Congratulations.
"After releasing North By Northwest (2005) and Dead Letter Perfect in 2007 (which have led to features on SoulStice in XXL Magazine, The Source, Urb, various other key urban publications and websites), SoulStice returned in 2009 with Beyond Borders, an “international concept album” featuring beats crafted by Belgian producer SBe and vocal collaborations with G.L.C., Kev Brown, Zap Mama, Oddisee and Supastition and included blog favorites “Chi Worldwide Remix” f/G.L.C. & Naledge (Kidz In The Hall) and the controversial “Strange Kind of Love.”

With the promotion of the upcoming Warner Brothers biopic “The Blind Side” in full-gear, SoulStice has been chosen for inclusion on the soundtrack with his new song “That Thang,” a track crafted by SoulStice and producer Mighty Wyte specifically for the movie.

For an indie artist to be selected to create a track for a major Hollywood studio picture is a weighty endorsement and one that forced SoulStice out of his creative comfort zone, giving him a chance to demonstrate his versatility as an artist. The opportunity and honor was not lost on SoulStice as he states "As an independent artist, placing a song in a Major Motion picture is a big deal. It's a co-sign from a major Hollywood studio - a sign that we're doing something right. This particular song is an artistic achievement for me because I'm portraying a character with a lifestyle that's not necessarily my own. That's nothing new for hip-hop, unfortunately, but it is new for me. I'm glad I was able to help give the movie what it needed.”

Check It ... QuESt "Lyrics to Go"


Check out new music from the homie QuESt. Enjoy.
From QuESt:

"So there's been alot of confusion about what new projects are coming next from me. And I understand. I thought I'd break down the situation plain and simple. And this is the real. The next official project I'm dropping is called "The Reason". I have no exact release date on it, But I'm planning on releasing it sometime In January/Feburary. The project I have with M Will the Shogun will be released sometime next year April/May. There is no official title for that project as of now. We are still doing a project however. Then will come another project called 'Fear Not Failure" which has no release date, or expected time of release. That's all for right now. I'm sorry if I confused anybody. "Lyrics to Go" is a track off of me and M Will's project due out sometime next year like I stated previously. I thought I'd just clear the air about everything."

Check It ... Analyrical "Deja Vu"


Check out Analyrical, whose First Date project is set to drop December 15. I've heard the advance copy and it's a pretty solid project through and through.
"First Date is a living testament to Analyrical’s life, showcasing his love for the scene, various dates and relationships gone wrong, and braggadocio filled rhymes that display Analyrical as a passionate writer, an aggressive MC’s worst nightmare, and all fields in between. Produced by Orikal (Graff Roots Media), Dimitry Killstorm, Phingaz (Background Noise Crew), B-Mc C, Arsenic, Ecid, Vividend (Sinthesis), Span Phly and Katrah-Quey. First Date is a thrill ride from the way the words and phrases ooze from his cranium, to the production which proves to be consistent, thoughtful, and a dedication to Analyrical and his penchant for rapping."
