Check It ... Capital R - "City Life"


Definitely got that dope production to this Capital R laced track. The accent kinda threw me off a little but I still had my ear to it. Check it.

Single from UK rapper/producer/sound engineer Capital R described as "UK Hip Hop with that classic golden-era Hip-Hop sound".

Interview: The Misnomer(s) Were Made in the USA


Asian. Female. Rap. Violin.

An unlikely combination, but one that works for the sound created by the Hip-Hop duo Misnomer(s). One part Knewdles (the emcee) and one part Sis On Strings (violin), the Brooklyn duo pushes the envelope with their music.

With the recent release of American I(s), Knewdles and SOS continue to deliver a sound that brings energy, raw talent and creativity. There is much depth to the project. As you'll read (in this interview) and hear (on their project), there's a genuine passion to explore and be themselves within the music they create. They do this on American I(s), making it an enjoyable listen.

I reached out to Misnomer(s) right before the release of American I(s) for a Q&A. Check out what they had to say about working with each other, their project and the future.

Friday's Five Random Questions with @Donwill


His name is Donwill. Not Don Will. Or DonWill. Just Donwill. And this year, he released one of my favorite albums, Don Cusack In High Fidelity. He's also 1/3 of Tanya Morgan. The Cincinnati native is dope and his music, whether a feature or his own project, is always fresh. I definitely dig what he does. Anyway, this week Donwill decided to take the challenge. Check out how he answered five random questions, after the jump.
