Apathy - “A Wonderful X-Mas Time” (Produced by Scoop Deville)


HILARIOUS! My kind of Christmas music. Get into the spirit with Apathy's holiday track.

As Apathy, like most of us, winds down 2011 and prepares for 2012 (which will see new LP’s from The Demigodz & Army Of The Pharaohs and more) he gets in the X-Mas spirit with this new leak and he runs thru a wish of X-Mas wishes that most B-Boys & Girls can co-sign.

Happy Holidays!

Jinesis "The Coffee Shop"


One of Jinesis's first endeavors, The Coffee Shop (Vol. 1) was intended to be a companion of sorts to J. Dilla's "Donuts" by utilizing some of the late producers same sample choices chopped differently. However, somewhere along the way, the project became it's own stand alone project and alerted the online beat community to what Jinesis's chops and drums were like. An early work but definitely one of the projects closer to his heart, it's been condensed and re-packaged for a more concise listening experience.
