I've been a fan of ¡MAYDAY!'s for some time now. They're not your usual sounding Hip-Hop group. Not at all. And that's dope either way. Here's the latest track which features a legend in Del The Funky Homosapien. Dope cut. Check it.

While currently on Tech N9ne’s All 6′s & 7′s tour, ¡MAYDAY! still found time to drop this new joint feat. the legendary Del. Produced by Plex Luthor (of ¡MAYDAY!).

What I'm Watching: Soul Khan "Speeding Bullets"

I've come to expect nothing but quality from the Brown Bag AllStars, whether as a collective or as individuals. From Soul Khan, I've come to expect nothing but incredible word play and the occasional laugh. His latest video for one of my favorite tracks off his recent project, Acknowledgement, delivers both the word play and laughs I look forward to. Featuring Akie Bermiss, the B Robinson (Hyer Ground Productions) directed video, provides the perfect visuals for "Speeding Bullets." Enjoy. Chea!

TMB Presents: "Otisis" Jinesis Produced & Otis Redding Sampled Beat Tape

Two fresh singles. And now we're here. I'm proud to present Otisis.

Folks that know me well, know how much I enjoy the work of Otis Redding. The passion in his voice, and the heartfelt feelings behind his music have long resonated with me. And to think the body of work he created was done in such a short period of time considering his untimely death. But his music lives on.

Folks who follow the blog also know how much I've come to respect the work of New York producer Jinesis. His music has been featured on the site numerous times, whether as an individual post or by way of a production credit for another artist. The dude is talented.

During one of our online convos about music I pitched Jinesis the idea of sampling Otis Redding tracks. I won't take credit for the creation of this incredible project, I just planted the seed. Jinesis truly bought this project to life and made it his own. He hit the ground running, taking inspiration from every day life and applying it to the beat creation on Otisis. You can feel his passion in the production.

I'm proud and very pleased with what he created. Jinesis is a very talented producer and Otisis is some of his finest work. Hit play and vibe out to the smooth samplings of Otis Redding as interpreted by Jinesis. Enjoy. Chea!

T. Hobbs "Dedication"

Back when O and I first started this blog, I depended a lot on music submissions for posts. I had always found things by poking around the net but submissions gave way to a lot of new music and filled a lot of space on the site in the early days. Now, two years later and most of the music comes through word of mouth. Whether it's the word of an artist whose music I respect or a fellow blogger whose taste in music I admire.

This T. Hobbs track hits TMB through our blogging-brother JCrillz over at HipHopIsCoolAgain. Crillz and I share a very similar taste in music and earlier today via twitter he sent me this track. Had he been a rapper who I didn't know I would have reported his ass as spam! Ha! But we often share good music among each other and other bloggers. So, I hit play and was immediately captivated by the LA by way of Queens, NY emcee, who just happens to be a female. I dig the Focus produced track. Enjoy. Chea!
