What I'm Watching: A-Class - "That Shit Right" (Prod. by Tom Delay Beats)

Dope track by A-Class here with "That Shit Right". He poses a lot of questions for those on the other side of his mic while holding his own lyrically. Peep the visuals then make sure you check that album out too.



Nightwriter is A-Class’s 3rd Brake Fast Records’ release, produced entirely by Tom Delay Beats. Although the pair has worked closely together throughout the years, this is first time Class has spit exclusively on Tom Delay’s production for an entire project.

A-Class is a battle rap veteran who has consistently provided a stream of exceptional music, even before he stepped on the battle scene. In the Grind Time and KOTD rings, he has faced the likes of Dizaster, Rone, Madness, Tantrum, and Sonny Bamboo. He remains a fierce opponent in the battle circuit and continues to travel the world squaring up with some of the scene’s best.

The composition of the Nightwriter EP primarily documents A-Class’s experiences on the road and in between battles, much of it having been written during about his expeditions, as well as about them. The progressive emcee continues to develop his customary free-flowing rhyme construction and unconventional flows around some catchy hooks, which is largely deviant from the unorthodox structure of Class’s previous recorded work.

Tom Delay Beats’ phonic background for the 7 song EP is expanse, ranging from bass heavy joints like “Bitch What You Talkin Bout” and “Kenny Lofton” to the funky-sounding sampling found on “Bus To NYC” and true school bangers like “Super Fat Laces”. Tom Delay structures the overall sound of Nightwriter with clean, addictive melodies and heavy drums that allow A-Class to display his rhythmic abilities.

Devine Carama - "Glorious Dartz & Soundscapes" (Prod. by Eianjay of Beat Addictz) / "Believing In Forever" (Album)

Devine released his album recently and if you copped the physical copy, there were two bonus tracks he threw on it. He was cool enough to hit us up with one of them here, which only strengthens the sound of what already is a good album. So yeah, check this out and then peep the album after the jump.

Devine Carama's Thoughts on Believing In Forever

"Believing In Forever is a motivational speech to young MCs coming into the game. In this instant gratification generation that often forgets it's linage and those that laid the path before them, this album is a reminder to them that integrity wins in the end. The theme of this album goes beyond the scope of just a rapper's plight. We all often struggle between our passion and getting paid, what we love and making a living, our purpose and our priorities. Just trying to balance it all out. But at the end of the day if you stay true to your culture, your craft, your purpose, and give your all you WIN regardless of the outcome. This album is about not investing in things that are temporary but rather believing in forever."

Download: Allen Poe - "How Gardens Grow"

Finally getting to the homie's latest album in "How Gardens Grow" and it's pretty much what I expected for the hard working Hip-Hop story teller. A lot of journeys, ups and downs, and fun memories are poetically reminisced about over soulful, head nod causing, extra chill production that fits his flow nicely. For an album like this that'll cost you no more than $Free.99, it's hard to find something to claim about in Hip-Hop. But don't take my word for it. Go get you this good music!

Though it's not spelled out as a conceptual album, How Gardens Grow was put together in a way that illustrates the growth a person goes through from early 20's through early 30's.

Apollo Brown & Ras Kass - "Giraffe Pussy" feat. Royce Da 5'9", Xzibit & Bishop Lamont

This is going to be yet another dope project coming out of the Mello Music Group umbrella. Apollo Brown is guaranteed incredible and hard hitting in the production area and Ras Kass is a veteran beast on the mic. They added Royce, Xzibit, and Bishop to this track and made it that much more explosive. Can't wait for "Blasphemy".

"Today the fresh team of Apollo Brown & Ras Kass are joined by a legendary cast of Royce The 5’9”, Xzibit, & Bishop Lamont. The new single, Giraffe P*ssy, brings together the distinguished MCs to showcase their abilities over sixteen bars a piece. The vocalists get high over an Apollo Brown beat, who’s filtered tone and syncopated bounce will have your head nodding as high as..."

What I'm Watching: Oddisee & Good Compny - "The Goings On (Live)"

I don't know how much more I can positively speak on what Oddisee brings to music in a whole but I do know that I'm extremely grateful for the talent he shares with it and with his group Good Compny. I've gotten the pleasure of seeing them all perform live and it was one of my favorite musical experiences. Amazing! Production, lyrics, flow, live stage show, etc., etc. If you still haven't bought these projects he's created, I highly suggest you go do that. It'll only help advance the growth in hearing more of it.

Check out what Oddisee had to say about the "Tangible Dreams" project:

"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."
