What I'm Watching: Daley - "Alone Together" ft. Marsha Ambrosius


I know I'm 3 months late on this and I apologize but damn, this joint is smooth as hell. I'm super brand new to Daley and very familiar of Marsha and all I can say is they make an incredible pair on this track. Definitely more of my kind of R&B here. Apparently, he only has this one video out but I'm keeping an ear and eye out for this cat. Extremely dope.

Words By Miss Special

Rocky Rivera is a woman that along her career has held many amazing hats and alias'. "Miss Krish is the journalist. EyeASage is a member of the Rhapsodistas which has since disbanded.. Rocky Rivera is the woman sitting right here today. Oh and Dr. Rocky? She only comes out when you need her.. The mad scientist" Rocky Rivera explains.

Writer's Guild (Mr. Miranda, MC Pennywise, RoQy TyRaiD, Random) - "Armed"


Arizona's Avengers on the mic? Fantastic Four? Fearsome Foursome? Either way, these cats go off on this track produced by Lifted of G.O.O.D Music/The New FOs. For a good 5 minutes, they attack the mic with a focused intensity that results in a work of wonder for "Armed". Hear for yourself.

What I'm Watching: Task1ne feat.Yae - "Villain"


Shoutout to Mr. @BelascoBlack for informing me about this joint. I must have played it about 4 to 5 times straight. Got me thinking about how I missed concepts this creative in music, especially Hip-Hop. Visually and lyrically. I know have to do more homework on these cats the way they put it down on this joint. Check it.



Villain is off Task1ne's album "DISTRICT 916" available on iTunes

Pro'Verb, G-Two, AP The Prince, & Lyriciss "No Mercy"


DMV stand up! PRO'Verb, G-Two, AP the Prince and Lyriciss do damage on this track. Straight murderous. You know I typically frown on the use of overused popular beats but these DMV heavyweights deliver on the Kanye West Mercy beat. I dig it. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!

Naturetone "Over the Horizon" feat. Thirtyseven


I definitely dig the vibe.
This track is a cut from Naturetone’s second solo album for World Around, Turnings of the Sun, which is an ambitious & expansive project showcasing his continued growth as not only a producer but a composer. The song is a tribute to the unbelievable life of explorer Richard Francis Burton.

Motel Eola "Pryor to This"


I've been meaning to write about the 19-year-old South East London beat maker Motel Eola for sometime now. So, I guess now is the time. Ha! The dude is definitely talented and he's got some great stuff. Pay attention to the kid and you'll definitely being seeing more features on Motel. But for now, enjoy Pryor to This. Chea!

What I'm Watching: ScienZe & King I Divine "Hero"



I blast this joint at least a dozen times a week. Hero is one of my favorite cuts off of the ScienZe and King I Divine Divine ScienZe project. After hitting the 20k mark on their Enjoy Tonight vid, the duo unleashed the Jerome D directed visuals for this anthem of sorts. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!

@KirbyLauryen's A Song A Day: Day 136



"The room is shaking 
My heart is breaking 
Glass is splattered 
Trust is shattered 
I'm standing on commitment 
But it feels like we're splitting 
The earth is moving 
I'm reminded that im human ..."

I just found my new favorite Kirby Lauryen song. Feels like an earthquake...
