Check out some unique music by a uniquely named artist, 7even:Thirty.
Gritty-ass video for "Twenty-Eleven". From the LP, Heaven's Computer (2011). Track produced by 5-D. Filmed by Tahiti. Edited by Tahiti & 7even:Thirty. Special appearance by AwkQuarius. Directed by 7even:Thirty.
Check point 4 of 2011... #CrashCourse 7. Savant continues to strengthen the ties between Chicago and Tucson, AZ, pairing one of the Chi's premier turntablists, Rice the Sound Transmitter, with Tucson's most potent two way threat since Richard Jefferson, Smoke Brothers emcee/ beatsmith, Habeas Corpus. Savant and Corpus swap bars over the Corpus laced pounding, leftist instrumental before Rice breathes life into what seems to be the long lost art of scratching.

On day 17, Ritchcraft delivers another beat to add to my favorites list. The man right here ... Dope. Check out my day 15 interview with Ritchcraft here. Also get the back story on Ritchcraft's 30 in 30 here. Enjoy day 17. Chea!
I caught this joint from the homie Chad over at Donuts & Milk. We definitely have a very similar taste in music. He hit me with the 24 track project from St. Louis Producer Michael Franco. Franco delivers some serious production on Think. It's a solid offering of dope beats with a few features. Hit play. Enjoy. Chea!
Another fresh interview from our north of the boarder fam, Chedo of TheComeUpShow.com. He recently caught up with G.O.O.D. Music's own Big Sean while he was in Toronto. Cool interview. Enjoy.
The first time I heard SonReal was back in December. Kind of late in the game perhaps considering the Canadian emcee had been putting out music for a while at that point. But I've been steady playing catch up since hearing that Tona featured track, "Dr Dumb It Down." I thought something was dope about SonReal during that first listen. I haven't been disappointed since. Leading up to the release of his latest project, Where's Waldo, SonReal was steady pushing visuals and singles for both this project and his previous one, The Lightyear Mixtape. I became a fast fan of his work.
Last month I linked up with SonReal for my column Return of The Real over at RefinedHype.com and we talked about his sound and this project. He's on a mission to bring his music to the world.
During that interview I asked him about the concept behind Where's Waldo. He responded, "It has nothing to do with that lil’ red striped dude. I just called it that for familiarity and what not. It's all about me being an artist right now that is hard to find in the grand scheme of things, but once you find me.... it's over. You’re like "damn... I found him this guy is dope"
At seventeen tracks, Where's Waldo is definitely a winner. SonReal prides himself on dope hooks and you definitely get that over some solid production coupled with some incredible word play. If you weren't paying attention to SonReal before this, Where's Waldo is a fine introduction. You can preview below and if you dig it, download it. Enjoy. Chea!
