What I'm Watching: Keno - "Fly Nature"
"It's fly nature / got me high as sky scrapers..."
Shoutout to the homie Keno on this album, the1derful, which is a really good album. You get 8 tracks for $3, people. And not just 8 regular tracks. A dope album that is long enough to wanna hear it a few times in a row and short enough to get addicted to it. Peep the visuals to "Fly Nature".
Cop the new tape the1derful!

Oddisee - The Beauty In All (Instrumental) / Tangible Dream (Mixtape)
Oddisee recently dropped an instrumental and mixtape album, both on Monday and they've been on a steady rotation for most of the hours of my days since. The guy loves to make music, his way, in the most purest form that genuinely represents him and his music. Personally, I think most, if not all his work is gold. From production to lyricism to putting it all together, the man is musically dope. Got myself a copy of this yesterday and you can actually check both out in its entirety before purchasing. I highly recommend the purchasing part too. Check it.
About "The Beauty In All"
"The Beauty In All is about the flaws & mistakes that give life its character and worth - how even ignorance can give light to knowledge. For me, not knowing how to do something & still trying is a process that helped my production style evolve. If everything we are is out in perfect tutorials, we might never deviate from the teacher. This record is dedicated to imperfection and the sense of pride & accomplishment we get from our struggles. Hopefully, you listen to this record, reflect on the ups & downs of life, and see the beauty in all."
About "Tangible Dream" (The Mixtape)
I live in a gentrified part of Brooklyn, I eat out several times a week, I travel the world sampling the best that cities across the globe have to offer. Do I live in a penthouse loft? Am I dinning in five stars restaurants? Can you only find me in the most exclusive areas? Do I own a jet? The answer to all the above is most certainly no. I’m just a regular man from Prince George’s county, Maryland that figured shit out.
I discovered that I can make a career in an arena dominated by artists that sell false dreams. I realized that although the masses may not know of my body of work, it doesn’t take the whole world to have the world I want. Tangible Dream is a mix-tape dedicated to the deconstruction of our traditional ideas of success & shedding light on the possibility of a sustainable rap life.
These rhymes were written in economy class seats, these beats were produced on long bus trips & these songs were recorded in airbnb apartments. All I want to do is make music for a living so that I can live to make music. The only dreams I’m interested in are the ones I can grasp. It just so happens that anything you want bad enough can be obtained. Perhaps the world may never know of my accomplishments but accomplishments they are nonetheless.

What I'm Watching: ¡MAYDAY! - "Shortcuts & Dead Ends"
"I'm treading water in the deep end / I'm tryin' to kill off all my demons / Embrace my flaws and all my defects / and my shortcuts and dead ends."
¡MAYDAY! is one of my favorite bands out now. Their music is extremely incredible. The lyrical content, storylines, production, pretty much everything that goes into their album is a work of art. Hit play, turn the volume up, and engulf yourself in this dope video.

What I'm Watching: Boog Brown - "Windows Open"
Boog Brown is so dope. Her style, flow, music exudes a chill that gets my head nodding, eyes closed in some zoned out mode. Very talented emcee, Boog, releases the visuals to a single off her upcoming "The Late Bloom".

What I'm Watching: Marco Polo - “3-O-Clock” ft. Organized Konfusion
Yooooooo. Organized Konfusion. Shoutout to Marco Polo for this. I approve the hell out of this collaboration. I shouldn't be surprised. Marco Polo does not disappoint. Have your radios ready October 12th.
The lead-single from Marco Polo's forthcoming LP, PA2: The Director's Cut, accomplishes what no one else has been able to pull off in over a decade--reunite Organized Konfusion. Since the duo disbanded in 1997, there has been no new OK material and every few years or so the usual "reunion rumors" emerge and then disappear.Follow the madness: twitter.com/TheMadBloggers_
Marco Polo's forthcoming LP, "PA2: The Director's Cut" will be released on 11-12-2013 via Soulspazm Records, with exclusive vinyl courtesy of Slice of Spice. The album features appearances from Talib Kweli, DJ Premier, Posdnuos, Masta Ace, Kardinal Offishall, Styles P, Lil Fame, Alchemist, Oh No, MC Eiht, King Tee, Michael Rapport, Large Professor, Inspectah Deck, Rah Digga, Slaine, Ill Bill, Organized Konfusion, Doppelgangaz & many more.
