TMB x Uni-Fi Records Presents: Monster House "Raiders of the Lost Art"

Back in February the homie Audio Pilot sent me a track that had been recorded that weekend by SPEAK Easy and Panic. It was among a few that had been done with him on production and the two emcees on the mic. What started as an email introducing me to the newly formed crew going by the name Monster House, became a partnership with TMB and Milwaukee based Uni-Fi Records to present the project. TMB has had ties with MKE since we started back in '09 and we're excited to be part of this LP. With a series of well received singles, we finally present the final product, eleven solid tracks, recorded over the course of six weekends or so. This is Monster House and welcome to the Raiders of the Lost Art. This is storytelling at its' finest. Chea!

Meet Mahalia

Photo by Neil Raja

But she's 13.

Okay, that's the last time I'll mention her age because what's important here is the music. And boy does Mahalia deliver. Folks will make the obvious comparisons to Corinne Bailey Rae and Adele, among others, but I'd rather let Mahalia be Mahalia, as she continues to develop and grow into her own sound. When I first received the email from SoulCulture introducing me to the UK singer/songwriter, I was a bit hesitant. Yes, age was a primary factor (okay, I mentioned age again). But once I watched the interview and began to listen to more of her music, I was impressed.

Today, I've found myself on a bit of a non-Hip-Hop kick and I'm pleased because that caused me to stumble across the very talented Mahalia. So, enjoy the interview below with SoulCulture and check out more from Mahalia here. Chea!

John Graham "Speak Love"

"It's a vent track addressing some of the issues I've been facing as a result of what some perceive as my success as an artist. I've never been able to fully understand the meaning of allowing haters to fuel your success until now."

The homie John Graham shares the first single from his upcoming project, Magic: Blanc et Noir. With production from Rayvon Red Dah Producah, Graham wants to speak love instead of hate. I dig it. Enjoy.
