Mean Doe Green "Hard Hats and Hand Grenades"
This joint is so filthy! Mean Doe Green goes in on his latest Hard Hats and Hand Grenades presented by the good folks over at DJBooth.net. A project with 15 new tracks, Mean Doe Green put it together while on tour with Raekwon from April-May. A bevy of features and solid producers, Hard Hats and Hand Grenades is dope from beginning to end. Peep one of my favorite cuts and if you dig it, head over to DJBooth.net to download it. Chea!

Reason 4AR "Champion Sound"
A few months back I announced that I was trying to put together a beat tape featuring Milwaukee producers. Reason was one of the talented producers to submit beats. He's got heat. His production work has backed many dope emcees coming out of the MKE Hip-Hop scene, including the recent Dana Coppafeel project. Recently Reason took the 6th Annual 2011 Miltown Beatdown title, battling some of the best on the scene. Below peep the vid for Champion Sound, an interview with Reason and his Champion Sound project. Enjoy. Chea!

What I'm Watching
Top $ Raz "Slip" (Produced by Badd Lukk)
"I'm from the Rock mothafucka we don't quit!"
I've been sitting on this track for a little while now and earlier today Far Rockaway's own Top $ Raz unleashed it on the Internets. Fuck release dates right? Just drop bombs and then turn that bomb off and then drop it again. Ha! Off the upcoming EP with producer Badd Lukk, Reign on the Parade, Top $ delivers more of that hunger through his rhyme that he's known for. Solid track. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!
"Top $ Raz and Badd Lukk have known each other for over eight years, and have been doing tracks together for seven of those years. Now at age 23, they have come together again across a Far Rock diaspora, Badd Lukk now resides in North Carolina, to bring the whole cycle full circle with a five track EP."

Shane Eli "Who's Laughing Now?"
I dig Shane Eli's work. The rapper/producer puts out quality music. Here is his latest featured on Puma x DJBooth Uncontested project. Another solid offering.
"I only started releasing music a little over a year ago, so having a song chosen for a project like DJBooth.net and Puma's album - alongside Emilio Rojas, Freeway, Laws and some of the dopest artists around - is definitely an honor. There are a lot of people who told me to give up and stop making music; "Who's Laughing Now?""

Blair Perkins "1+1 (Beyonce Cover)"
I typically avoid covers like the plague just because. Maybe it's the over-saturation of 'em, I don't know. But damn this dude lays this joint out and it's hard to deny his talent. I caught this over on tumblr and felt the need to share with folks here. Enjoy. Chea!

MeLo-X "The Weeknd Love Triangle" Feat. The Weeknd, Sade & Drake
MeLo-X is an extremely talented dude. His work is so damn smooth. I'm vibing out to his latest, "The Weeknd Love Triangle." Hit play and enjoy for yourself. Chea!
What first started out as one of MeLo's signature "GodMix's" has transformed into a love triangle with none other than the most exotic goddess Sade. Through a rhythmically driven sound scape MeLo creates a meeting point between The Weeknd's "What you Need" and Drake's "Marvins Room". This piece of art was inspired by an array of beautiful eclectic women during a late night studio session in an attic style Berlin apartment. Press play and let the music tell the rest of the story.Follow the madness: twitter.com/themadbloggers_

OTiS CLaPP "Wasting Away" Feat. ScienZe (Produced by Miles)
First let me say that Miles is a beast on the boards. I haven't heard a beat I haven't liked. Salute! Now take that production and couple it with Brooklyn's ScienZe and Queens' own OTiS CLaPP and you have a solid track. Off of OTiS CLaPP's upcoming Welcome Home Ralphie Mixtape, this jawn is definitely a winner. Hit play and enjoy.
