Uh, maybe I need a late pass on this joint because I'm just now catching it. Anyway, Eternia performs "Pass That" from the upcoming album "At Last" with MoSS. This joint is from Eternia's appearance at SXSW during the all female Hip-Hop showcase.
Kayo, a talented MC/Singer hailing from the Caribbean island of St. Lucia, teamed up with Quake and Coolera to bring you this remixed track called Cigar Music.

We really do appreciate getting good music in the email. Keep sending them. We'll keep checking them. Thanks!
Following on the success of T-West’s “T-Dot State of Mind,” the single that reached the top of the charts on Flow 93.5 FM, T-West is back with his new single “Coming Home” (buy on iTunes) from the album “Maybe It’s Okay.”
Yep! Caught yet another dope show at Toad's. This time, Jedi Mind Tricks came through to amp the hell out the crowd with track after track. They brought guests too. Blacastan returned for another quick set after popping through at the Apathy show. 7L & Esoteric was in the building to open up the show and didn't disappoint. They all definitely put it down for Hip-Hop. Check it out....
JC Poppe is back with a new joint, "Dribble", produced by 88 Keys. Poppe is working hard on his new project "Tea Party" and no, not about what you think.
"The title has absolutely nothing to do with those loons that protest whatever they don’t happen to care for and everything to do with something else," Poppe wrote on his blog. "Since the completion of my first album there has been a lot of crazy stuff to happen to me and it has sent me into a downward spiral several times. It happens to everybody. So, with this album I am throwing out my baggage in an act of defiance against that which pains me. I am hoping to gain myself back through this whole process."
Yes, it is finally here! You can't imagine how excited we are about this step (well maybe you can since we've been talking about it for days). We decided to take the leap and get this podcast going. Shoutout to DJ MP for joining our team for the weekly podcast. He does his thing on the mix! We're excited about the continued partnership with him!

Take this joint with you to the gym, on your commute, to work while you're trying to ignore your boss or just chilling at the crib.

"Trouble" comes from DMV female emcees Jay Mills, RaTheMc and Emperess. I heard the track via a video link sent from Emperess and have been searching for the audio for a bit. I finally got it and have been killing it ever since. Jay Mills gave me the go ahead to feature it, so enjoy the track of the week. Don't forget to hit that subscribe button!
We featured poet Caits (Caitlin) Meissner on the blog back in our early days. I remember hearing her poetic flow over subtle beats and thinking she was so fresh and dope. Well, Caits is back with a new project, "The Wolf & Me", which hits May 1, 2010. She released "Blackest Blood" (produced by Just Plain Ant) ahead of the full project. Check out the bandcamp page to hear the track. It's a very mellow and enjoyable track. Check it out. Also check out www.caitsmeissner.com for more information about the upcoming project.
