TMB Presents: SigNif "Dynamite" (Prod. by Madden Miles)


SigNif is like family to The Mad Bloggers. She's one of those rare individuals that we know outside of the Internet. She's super talented too. Since discovering her Flawed project a while back, we've tried to support what she does. Many projects later, her music and sound have developed a lot since hearing those early tracks. It's dope when you see that growth in someone you've been rooting for. Recently she linked up with TMB on the tentatively titled Hathadays project (which includes a few other emcees), taking cuts from the Madden Miles produced Donny Hathaway beat tape, A Beat For You. Sig lets loose on Dynamite, which premiered earlier today on Ep 103 of Hip-Hop Breakfast. Stop sleeping on the girl. Hit play and enjoy this one. Chea!

NEW RELEASE: The Cranberry Show "Paranormal Karaoke"


I've either come to fully appreciate their sound or The Cranberry Show have grown more within their music. I've always liked what Young Focus and Arcane did with their music. Their sound has always been bold, creating the music they liked and believed in. But I've always said that the Milwaukee duo delivers music that's an acquired taste but sonically they've done something special with their DJBooth and DonutsAndMilk.com backed project that is unlike any of their previous projects. I dare to even say, this is their finest work to date and if you weren't paying attention to them before, you should press play on Paranormal Karaoke. I have a feeling you might enjoy this one. Chea!

I first came across King I Divine's production through BLCTXT. I became a fan of his work. And I've long been a supporter and fan of ScienZe.

This joint is solid. Hit play and enjoy and look for more music from them soon. Chea!

Jimmy The Bang? "Loop Playback"


e.d.g.e. is one of my favorite emcees. And he's a cool dude too. Just recently he pulled together a collection of some cuts he 'loop technician'd." I'll pretend like that is actually a word as we jump into this Loop Playback project from what you could call e.d.g.e.'s alter ego Jimmy The Bang? Enjoy.
Via e.d.g.e.:
Aside from rhyming, I often make beats on the side...I wouldn't call myself a producer, or even a beatmaker though. The reason being, most of my  work consists of repeated 4-bar loops, more often than not without basslines! So I'd prefer to call myself a "Loop Technician", hence the title "Loop Playback". My "Loop Technician" name has always been Jimmy The Bang? (the question mark is a rhetorical one)... Either way, enjoy my collection of loops that I placed in chronological order (Early Evening was created in 2005 and Sleep Pattern in 2010), and feel free to download them. Most of them have been used for my own songs though, so if any MC's want to use them, mixtapes are fine.

What I'm Watching: ARTZ "Public Enemy #1"



"Public enemy N0.1 was inspired by the politics of the music industry, even though I am a passionate artist throughout my journey of building a foundation for my music career I crossed paths with what I like to call 'industry vultures.'"

Cool video from ARTZ. Enjoy.
