Download ... The Journey To Hip Hop ... Connecticut Vol. 1 and 2

Finally got done with this whole Connecticut Hip-Hop compilation project I've been trying to put together for the past couple weeks. Hard work making sure the flow of these albums just goes. Good, good music on here from really talented artists in the state of Connecticut. Most, unsigned. All dope. Show these folks some love by downloading them and copping their work. Support the artists. They're busting their asses for your ears. But.....I'll let the music speak for itself. These albums are free for you, courtesy of them. Check it...

TMB's Track of the Week 6/8/10 "Thunder Summer Storm" @MelissaCzarnik

Melissa Czarnik has been featured on the blog a few times. I dig her music. Every time I write about her sound, I throw the words "unique", "different" and "alternative" around. Indeed it is all of those things. "Thunder Summer Storm" (produced by Eric Mire) is one of my favorite tracks off of Melissa's "Strawberry Cadillac". It's a very chill track with depth in it's lyrics. Melissa is wrapping up work on her upcoming project due out late July. I'm excited to hear the new work. In the meantime, enjoy "Thunder Summer Storm", the track of the week.

Download ... Haz Solo x Whaz x DOOM "ALL CAPS NO TRICK SPELLING: VILLAIN MIX"

When Haz Solo changes default pics on twitter, prepare for a new project to drop. Sunday, Haz popped into my timeline and his pic had changed. I knew immediately that something was on the horizon. So I reached out to him. He confirmed. I responded "do you ever sleep?" He replied "I'd drop a project bi-weekly if I could."

The dude is dope and he's been featured on the blog as both an emcee and a producer. Today he dropped "ALL CAPS NO TRICK SPELLING: VILLAIN MIX" presented by him and Whaz. A project started a few months ago and completed over the weekend, it's a remix album of DOOM tracks that's pretty damn dope. Here's my favorite cut off the project. If you dig it, go download the full joint!

Check It ... @TheRealEternia "The BBQ" (remix) featuring @JeanGrae @TiyePhoenix

I had a meeting and stepped away for a moment. I came back to my computer and had this joint waiting in the inbox. Gotdamn this just made my morning (and early afternoon). No dope female rappers? Caught up in that Nicki Minaj and Lil Kim drama? Later for that, because this joint from Eternia x Tiye Phoenix x Jean Grae is serious. Really, really serious. This jawn follows the already dope "THE BBQ" featuring Rah Digga and Rage, the lead single off the "AT LAST" limited edition vinyl, which oh by the way is available TODAY! Press play. Turn up the volume. Enjoy.
