Consequence "Mr.RapFix (Hot Water)" (Produced & Cuts by Audible Doctor)

Sure, I give Con a lot of shit on twitter for artwork and sometimes poorly produced videos. That doesn't mean I don't like the dude's music. It means he should do better. In a time when lesser known acts are putting together quality artwork and high end videos, we expect more from Consequence. Shit, at least I do. I haven't had the chance to peep his new project but I did get this track sent to me via the Brown Bag AllStars. It's solid. This joint is produced by Audible Doctor, a member of the NYC based crew. I fucks with this track. Hit play and if you're so inclined, check out the rest of Con's newest project too.

TMB Presents: Mark V "Season Change" (A Beat Tape)

If you're on twitter and you make music, whether you're a producer or emcee, and you aren't using it to network then you aren't using it right. But who am I to tell you how to use social networking. However, I've watched some amazing collabs come together via twitter and TMB has also connected with some very talented folks via the network to present some projects.

That leads us to our latest collaboration with Wisconsin producer Mark V. The beat maker out of Racine has been making beats for about seven years on and off again. He's coming off a two year hiatus and a Miltown Beat Down feature and linked up with us for a project we're calling Season Change. You know, it's August and we're quickly approaching the end of summer and the beginning of fall. Mark V. flips some soulful samples and creates the perfect backdrop for the transition from the warm weather of Summer and cool breeze of Fall.

It was an idea that we both built on and I'm happy to finally present it to our readers. Mark V. is a talented dude. Give this joint a listen and enjoy. Peep the project and a quick Q&A after the jump. Chea!

Ashford & Simpson "Gimme Something Real"

Ashford & Simpson, together were the greatest songwriting duo in American music. We were probably conceived to a song they sung and/or wrote. Yesterday Nick Ashford passed at 70.Thoughts and prayers to his family and friends. His impact on music will never be forgotten. Rest in Peace Ashford.

What I'm Watching: The Weeknd "The Birds (Part 1)"

This is the official unofficial official maybe semi official but official video. Ha! I mean, does it even matter anymore? Over the last few months we've seen folks put together some pretty solid unofficial videos serving later as the official yet unofficial video. I mean, as long as it's dope, it's all good. Right? Right. So, peep the visuals for "The Birds (Part 1)", starring Akiko Mims off the latest offering from The Weeknd, Thursday. Enjoy. Chea!
