What I'm Watching: Sene "brooklyknight"



This joint reminds me of Clint Eastwood's Half Time in America ad during the Super Bowl. It's like the native son returns to champion the cause for Hip-Hop. Brooklyn's Sene is preparing to drop his new project brooklyknight, due out April 24th. The album will feature Blu, Co$$, Scienze, Jay Jennings and others, with production from J57, Fonetik Simbol, No Games and more. The video provides the backdrop and inspiration for the new project. Can't wait. It's half time in Hip-Hop. Are you ready for the next half? Chea!

Interview: Special Sundays x Konkwest



Miss Special says she's dropping an interview everyday this week. I'm with it. Get ready for the ride. Ha! Next up is Konkwest. Enjoy.
I recently got to speak with Konkwest about his newest project "Early Morning Midnights" with producer Rufio that is releasing tomorrow (February 29th). We spoke about the feel of the project, how it would be released and the samples he helped Rufio with. We also spoke briefly about his next project "Beautiful De La" with producer Tellapath, set to release April 20th on dvd with videos to each song.

What I'm Watching: @SidSriram "We Found Love" (original by Rihanna)


I don't even know if there's much more that can be said about how talented Sid is. Here's his latest cover "We Found Love", originally done by Rhi Rhi. I think what I love most about his version is the personal culture touch he put in the song. Beautiful. With any luck, hopefully we (his fans) can convince him to do a cover of the breathtakingly wonderful "Anwar" by Javeda Zindagi soon.

Again, my hat is off to you.

TMB Presents: Madden Miles "Large Marge"


Madden Miles and I are a ridiculous duo. Let it be known, he's the talented one and I'm just going along for the ride after cooking up crazy concepts. Working on his third TMB backed project, the Wisconsin producer delivers up the title track from Large Marge Sent Me. Later for industry co-signs, Large Marge sent 'em and that shit means something bigger. Ha! Enjoy. Chea!

Kirby Lauryen's A Song A Day: Day 57 & 58



Not enough sites stand behind unsigned talented folks. That's something that we've long been committed too. In pursuit of realness, right? Right. While other sites follow, we try to lead and jump out front when we believe in someone and their music.

Kirby Lauryen has been on our radar for a little while. I thank EMS for bringing her to our pages and sharing her amazing music and beautiful voice with our readers. Yesterday Kirby dropped a wonderful EP. If you haven't, you should download that immediately. I'll wait *grabs Snickers bar*

I hope you've downloaded it by now.

Anyway, Kirby has also been putting out a video series simply titled A Song A Day, recording and releasing a song a day via her youtube channel. She's got some great songs there. So, from this moment forward, we're committed to posting those videos here on a daily basis. Her voice needs to be heard. Support independent music and talented people.

Apollo Brown & OC - "Prove Me Wrong" (Live From HeadQCourterz Radio Rip)


OC is back with his dope, lyrical, poetic, deep style of flow on a track produced by the highly talented Apollo Brown with "Prove Me Wrong" which debuted on DJ Premier's Sirius Satalite Show. OC's upcoming album will be produced by Apollo Brown so I know it's one of those "already bought" type of joints. I don't have to think twice. Check this track and listen to what I'm talking about.
