Here's the latest track by the homie Joe Budden. Enjoy.
The Cardim Collection continues!! This one is my favorite so far in the series because its the first taste of the sample-free sound Budden and Cardim have been creating on Joe's album The Great Escape. Look out for more J. Cardim/Joe Budden collaborations later this month on J. Cardim's upcoming project Dice Music Group: The IN Crowd!
Joe Budden "Somethin To Ride 2" (Produced by J. Cardim)
This joint is serious! Rah Digga delivers on "This Ain't No Lil' Kid Rap". She's working on the new album "Classic" produced entirely by Nottz. In the meantime, enjoy this track.
There is something fresh about The GTW. The Angry Hero Music Group describes the 20-year-old Chicago emcee as a "Hip-House writer/producer .... His music fuses house with hip-hop which propels his music to an innovative standard." With some room to grow, The GTW provides a unique sound on "Don't Smoke the Cigaratte". I can dig it.
Check one my favorite joint "Hennesy Joint (remix)" and if you're so inclined, download "Don't Smoke the Cigarette."
We featured ¡OYE! during the Milwaukee installment of the Journey to Hip-Hop series. His "In My Mind" EP is pretty dope. He's working on a new project with Milwaukee native and producer Klassik.
Milwaukee has unearthed a shining, refreshing voice with rising artist ¡OYE!. The Puerto Rican emcee is really hitting a stride with the tremendous response spawned by his debut project, the In My Mind EP.
¡OYE!, a Junior at UW- Madison teamed up with fellow Milwaukee native and musical producer, Klassik, to build the musical work and develop a sound that expresses, with graceful and poetic grit, the complex aspects of an ambitious musician’s mind. Sponsored by Chicago based InkRed Clothing, the two artists have been brewing up a live show that best encapsulates the artistic vision of the In My Mind EP.
If the buzz still hasn’t reached you yet, you might want to go out and find it.
Check out the new sneak peak of the upcoming mixtape as ¡OYE! flexes the pen on THE SENTENCE!
Another email I've had for a while. The homie Essince over at Royal Heir Entertainment hit me with this jawn from the Chicago emcee, K. Vincent. It's pretty dope. Check it.
Yes, that's former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer with the Internets Celebrities
Dallas Penn is a funny dude. I don't know him outside of the Internets but I fuks with him. Anyway, the Internets Celebrities (Dallas Penn x Rafi Kam x Casimir Nozkowski) have been having one of the biggest weeks EVER. It started off with a feature in the NY Times, followed by an appearance on MSNBC and now the new video. Check out "Stadium Status." CHEA!
Our starting point for this movie was simply asking the question: why did the Yankees and the Mets get to build record-breakingly expensive stadiums in the SAME YEAR? Considering we were on the brink of a massive recession and now face massive budget shortfalls in New York state, it seemed problematic that so much public funding went into these buildings – with little assurance of any tangible public benefit.
From there, we employed our usual investigation methods. Namely, go to a place and start filming. We actually got into Citifield and were able to film there. Yankee Stadium confiscated our tape – but we still managed to talk to people and capture the exterior of the massive new structure.
We looked at the communities being affected by these stadiums and tried to see who exactly was benefiting from these teams getting to build new revenue-maximizing ballparks – directly across from the old ones.
It’s a big topic, could probably fill up a feature film or two and in the end is our longest movie to date – coming in at a potentially unviral 18 minutes.
We could not have made this movie without you, internets and if you dig it, please pass it along to anyone else who might enjoy it. In the end, we’re baseball fans and still root for these teams. But it doesn’t mean it’s not worth questioning their methods.
I remember the first time I heard the name Phil Ade. A friend had just attended a show in DC and hit me with "check this dude out, I saw him tonight." I did. I enjoyed his style. The dude is dope and this track "The Letter" and the visuals are fresh. "The Letterman" drops July 6. Enjoy this in the meantime.
I first came across the Born Brothaz right after the Milwaukee installment of The Journey to Hip-Hop series. The crew out of the brew city where just wrapping up their "JFK Conspiracy Series: Born Identity" project. I've had the project for quite some time. With so much damn music in and out of my inbox, sometimes it's hard to keep up with what I posted. I missed this post, #latepass. Check this cut, "Three M's", off their project.
Don't let the 35 track list overwhelm you. "The Amber Rose Freestyles" is basically eight tracks broken down into verses from a gang of emcees. It's an interesting concept and well worth the listen. I dig it.
Everyone had something to say about this....so they put it in a verse.
After several months of receiving freestyle submissions from emcees located around the world, the Amber Rose Instrumental(s) freestyle project is fully dressed, putting words to the now infamous playland of music from JUDAH, the producer whose "beats sounds so....."
Presented by JUDAH x Dub MD x Kevin Nottingham, mixed by DJ Dublee. The mixtape boasts artists from all over the globe including Tabi Bonney, Dominique Larue, Van T (Mexico) and Beaufonic (Australia). Other locales include Texas, North Carolina, California, and of course the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia).
