Dope. Here's the lead single from Naeem Oba's upcoming EP, MPLS Joe, produced entirely by King Karnov. This joint is serious. SERIOUS. I'm not going to say much more other than blast this at maximum levels. You're welcome. Chea!

INSIDE THE MUSIC: Jesse Abraham "One Day"


I respect Jesse Abraham. He puts his all into his music. He has the uncanny ability to pick quality beats, the right type of features and his content is always on point. Last week with the help of DJBooth.net, Jesse offered up a new old project with One Day. I say new old because there are a few carry over tracks from his One Day EP dropped earlier this year. The additions to the project give it a nice well rounded feel. I dig it.

One Day features guest verses from Blu, Homeboy Sandman, Eric Sosa, Fresh Daily and others. On the production side the project features Panjabi MC, !llmind, K.O. Beatz, Spills, Jinesis and more.

When you hear a project, sometimes you really want to know what the artist was thinking when they put the project together. So, I reached out to Jesse with some questions about his latest offering. Check out our Q&A after the jump.

It's been a while since we've posted something from blctxt. It's actually been a while since I've heard from the homie. I'm glad he's back sharing some new music from his upcoming EP, A Smart Black Boy. The first single from the project finds blctxt laying down some dope rhymes over the Illastrate beat. This joint screams summer hit. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!

Adam Warlock & Agartha Audio "1987 (A Conglomeration of Years)"


I remember. There's not one event that Adam Warlock touches on that I don't remember in his new track produced by Agartha Audio, 1987. A Conglomeration of Years, Adam Warlock delivers a track that reminds me of the history of my youth. He releases the single ahead of his Uncommon debut, Dark Weapons (from Mars). In the meantime, enjoy 1987.

Check It ... Apathy - "Check To Check" (Prod. by Evidence)


Get ready for August 23rd because that's when Apathy is dropping "Honkey Kong". Connecticut's own comes on this Evidence laid production with talks of having the poor dad, balling on a budget due to the lack of having the golden ticket, and payment plans and this is just the first verse. Basically check to check. I dig how they inserted an Outkast verse in the chorus. All around dopeness, no question.

e.d.g.e. "Sincerity"


e.d.g.e. is no stranger to the blog considering he's been featured on these pages a gang times. Yesterday he released his freeverse over the Madlib production. Along with the track, he announced the release of his upcoming I.G.O.D. x DJ Koast x the9elements.com presented All Flow Everything due out June 24. I've heard an advance of the project and the final product is well worth the delays leading up to the Friday release. You're going to enjoy it, I guarantee. In the meantime, enjoy "Sincerity." Chea!
