Check It ... Fresh Cut Collective
What can I say about Fresh Cut Collective? Oh, that's right ... they're dope! No, seriously, really, really dope. Fresh Cut Collective is on their way to becoming one of my favorite groups. Live band, dope emcee, great music. Yeah, I can't say enough. Check the track and the video.
Fresh Cut Collective’s upcoming release of their self-titled debut album with Uni.Fi Records release party is set for Saturday, May 29th.
Since their first show in December 2008, Fresh Cut Collective has played many shows in Milwaukee as well as Madison, Green Bay, Chicago, and Atlanta. They have opened for national touring artists The Constellations, Curumin, The Cool Kids, Rhymefest, and Movits and were a headliner at last year's Milwaukee Summerfest. Having done so much in their first year and a half, Fresh Cut Collective has high hopes for the future.
Their sound combines the raw energy and spirit of contemporary hip hop with the organic grooves and pure musicianship of late 60s/early 70s funk, soul, and rock music. There are no samples or sequences on this album; all the music was performed with live instruments giving an added depth and warmth to the songs. These ten tracks have been performed, refined, and perfected over the past year and waiting to be unleashed.

Check It ... Mario Dones "Ring to It" (prod. by Keelay & Zaire)
The joint is pretty dope. Enjoy.
With the 2009 release of Keelay & Zaire's Ridin' High [MYX Music Label], the entire Sole Vibe collective was given a platform to show their ability behind the boards and on the mic alongside some notable names from the culture. In 2010 the Sole Vibe is poised to carry that success further. This summer will see the release of One To Grow On, a project showcasing the talent of the Sole Vibe, particularly shining a light on MC's Mario Dones and AV as they are preparing repsective solo endeavors. Dones and AV decided to put out a project that plants the seed for what will be a fruitful year for the Sole Vibe as a whole. One to Grown On features production from all of the producers in the Vibe (Keelay, Zaire, J. Fish, DJ Whooligan), as well as beats from a few up-and-comers.
One To Grow On's first single (and 2nd leak) is "Ring To It" by Mario Dones, available on the official website of the squadron, www.thesolevibe.com. You can find "Been Around the World" by AV on the site, which also will be included on the project. No official release date yet, but set your eyes on early-mid July for this free digital release.

Check It ... Reinvention "Crossroads"
We posted these dudes on both the blog and included their "Forgot" track on episode 7 of the podcast. These dudes are pretty dope. I definitely enjoy their sound and style. Look out for their "A Rapper in Denial" project dropping soon. I've heard a few cuts. So far, so
We're DJ Entendu and Classic, and together we make up Reinvention. We blend influences from indie rock and electronica with more traditional hip-hop music and try to make huge bangers that can appeal to anybody from a dancing fiend to a top-down, wind-in-your-hair, cross-country roadtripper.

The Journey to Hip-Hop ... Connecticut: Apathy
Apathy is probably the most known emcee out of Connecticut. We've featured him on the blog a few times, including video from his recent live show at Toad's Place, tracks from his new album and features with other artists. The dude is dope. He's been dope. And at this rate, will always be dope. We definitely had to give Apathy a solo shout out on the Connecticut installment of our Journey to Hip-Hop series. This track, "True Love" featuring Phonte is off Apathy's sophomore LP, "Wanna Snuggle?" released late last year. The full project is dope too. Check Apathy out, if you haven't already.

Check It ... @KENO_theOS x @AmorJones "Don't Care What You Think" (prod. by @NefTheDamaja)
I first caught Keno through his theOTHERSIDE (Keno and producer Wallsauce make up the crew) project with the homie Haz Solo. The dude is dope. He and Sauce are working on their upcoming project, "Sleeping Giant," while doing a gang of solo projects. This track is one of those solo jawns featuring Amor Jones on vocals and Nefarious on production. It's dope. I dig it.

Washington, DC --- To get a "golden ticket" in the rap game these days comes at a cost. Even Charlie was being watched.
That's right.
JUDAH, the supreme mind behind the madness of "The Amber Rose Instrumentals" takes listeners on another visual trip, where the elevator of perception goes "sideways and frontways and slantways" with the video "Imagination." Sampling the whimsical track,"Pure Imagination" from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, JUDAH's narcotic spin on the classic childhood memoir mixed with images of what is seen in rap music today creates questions about what is being stored in the cerebral caverns of the next generation.
