A Conversation with Big K.R.I.T. x "Amtrak"
Unless you've somehow been under a rock or for whatever crazy reason aren't checking for Big K.R.I.T. musically, yesterday he put out his follow up to K.R.I.T. Wuz Here, ReturnOf4Eva. The project is dope and self-produced by K.R.I.T. Since hitting download last night, that joint has been on blast mode! Every time I hit play there is another track that becomes a favorite. Last year Wuz Here made a lot of lists as a top release and I'm sure ReturnOf4Eva will find itself on similar lists at the wrap of this year. Up top check out a conversation with K.R.I.T. via feedoffrap.com. Down below check out one of my favorite cuts, "Amtrak." Enjoy. Chea!

Download: RUFIO x KENO "For Those Who Are Still Sleeping"
Keno is one of my favorite dudes coming out of the Sacramento Hip-Hop scene. He's part of the dope duo theOTHERSIDE (with producer Sauce Fonda) and stays putting out quality music. He recently teamed up with producer Rufio and the two just released For Those Who Are Still Sleeping. Definitely a dope project with features from Chuuwee, Soosh and more. Hit download and don't be a bitch about enjoying some free.99 music. Chea!

TMB's Throwback Video of the Day ... El-P "Deep Space 9mm"
I wasn't sure what music I was in the mood for, but when I tuned into this, I just started bobbing my head. Plus, the video is dope. Drums are dope, which besides the lyrics, are one of the most notable elements in the song. So without further ado via @humpjones, enjoy "Deep Space 9mm" by El-P (2002).

What I'm Watching: Koncept & Tranzformer x Boog Brown & Apollo Brown
Initially I was gonna hold both of these until my Thursday series of posts but fuck all that because these two tracks and videos are dope. So this is part two of What I'm Watching. It's fresh that both videos come from one producer, one emcee projects.
The homie J57 of the mighty Brown Bag Allstars stays putting quality music in my inbox. He hit me up yesterday with the track and then today with the video. "Change" is a dope track featuring Jefferson Price off the Koncept x Tranzformer More Than Meets The Eye EP. Enjoy the simple yet dope visuals below.
"Running those gums like you're toothless..."
This Boog Brown video I spotted over at Potholes. Boog spits straight bars on "U.P.S." Gotdamn! This track is off the Boog Brown x Apollo Brown Brown Study. Dope track. Enjoy. Chea!

Jasmine Mans "Roses"
"I'm sorry that Beyonce made you turn in your halloween costume for a freakum dress."
Let's talk about how dope Jasmine Mans is. No, you don't wanna talk about it? Ok, press play on the video and then let's talk about it after you're blown away by the spoken word of the 19-year-old Jasmine Mans. Some folks may remember her stirring piece "Nicki Minaj." Her poetry is filled with so much passion and realness. You get that same type of passion and energy on her latest, "Roses." The girl is dope.

SonReal Fly By Session x "Here I Am"
SonReal Double-time - Fly By Session from Darren Lee Irwin on Vimeo.
SonReal is dope. I first caught the Vancouver emcee late last year and have been a fan since. Just a few hours ago he dropped off a pretty fresh acappella vid for Fly By Session and a new single, "Here I Am." Damn, he just released his latest Where's Waldo but hasn't let up on new material. The dude is dope. Enjoy.
