A Day In The Life of Homeboy Sandman

BHF '11 - A Day In The Life of Homeboy Sandman from BrooklynBodegaTV on Vimeo.

Homeboy Sandman is dope. Brooklyn Bodega's The Company Man spent a day with Homeboy Sandman as he hits various studios and travels around NYC. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing him rock at the Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival July 16th, along with Eternia, Shad, headliner Q-Tip and others. Peep the day in the life of Homeboy Sandman in the meantime. Chea!

No Sleep 'Til Brooklyn ... Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival Calendar

It's almost like tradition for OC and I since we started blogging to head down to Brooklyn for the Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival. While, we'll only be around for the Main Stage show on Saturday, the good folks behind BHF, the Brooklyn Bodega, have events throughout the week. Check out the full calendar after the jump.

Prophetic "Where Am I Going"

It must be Milwaukee week on the blog, as I find myself posting up another one of the MKE Hip-Hop scene's natives. Prophetic, who is no stranger to the blog, recently released his lastest Purgatory. Filled with some dope production from the likes of Reason, Adlib, Dylan Thomas and more, Proph delivers up a solid offering with the project. One of the standout cuts is the self-reflective "Where Am I Going." He doesn't mince words over the JJ produced cut. Enjoy the track and if you're so inclined check out the full project over at prophpeezy.com. Chea!

e.d.g.e. "Metallic Merlot"

It's always about that #penwork and #business with the homie e.d.g.e. And he doesn't let up. Having just released All Flow Everything, the Vancouver based emcee returns with a new cut produced by Sinitus Tempo. Another solid cut. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!

Tay Butler "I Came Up" feat. Prophetic and Mac

It's been a year since Tay dropped UMG Summer League. That was a solid project. Now the Milwaukee based emcee returns with a dope track featuring Prophetic and Mac. I dig it. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!

Element Everest "What I Do" Feat. The Rusty Ps & A Biz

I blog about Milwaukee like I live there. Funny thing is I've never been there but ever since stumbling on their Hip-Hop scene, I've tried my best to cover it. Recently I caught this Element track featuring The Rusty Ps and A Biz. You gotta love summer because everyone is out trying to make the summer anthem. You can add this jawn to the list. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!

What I'm Watching: Mean Doe Green "Haiti's" feat. Chuuwee, Black Zeek & Dell Jr.

The track is dope and the video does its job at delivering, with a set of simple visuals for the Mean Doe Green cut off of  Black Suits & Shovels. Directed by Jae Synth, the shots are tight and the storyline moves right along. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!

Louis Mackey & Thirtyseven "Good Night, America"

Sent to me on the 4th of July when I was too busy drinking beer and spending money on free admission to the National Zoo, the good folks over at World Around offered up "Good Night, America" from Louis Mackey & Thirtyseven. I dig the cut. Cool joint for the 4th and the day after. Chea!

From the cracker fat cats who profit off the poverty, to the hippie 'revolutionaries' who bitch about the system over bong rips, No Humans Allowed has no sympathy, no mercy and no patience for anyone on Independence Day. This song is about living in the aftermath of an empire that's been gutted before the peasants even realized what happened.  Happy 4th of July!

Milly Esquire "Let 'Em Say"

Milly Esquire, Lucky, Mark Milly or whatever you call him, the brother has a dope track in "Let 'Em Say". The jawn has been floating around for a little while now but it definitely was made for a summer soundtrack. The B'more native is working on a new project and "Let 'Em Say" is the first single. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!

The Groundbreakers "Sleepless"
