1) They say the underground’s sleepin’ on Fev?!!? Well we’re here to wake your ass up!!! UFO FEV stays murderin’ your favorite MCs as he bodies a luxurious FINN laced arrangement! Give “A1 CREDIT” to these artistic masterminds for their tireless efforts & endless creativity! “Blood On The Bills” is the album to beat!!!

2) When two QB Hip Hop legends pour their passion into an ALCHEMIST powered track the entire world’s listening! CORMEGA & NAS flaunt “Glorious” lyricism on “The Realness II” heater that educates just as much as it entertains! Dreams of better living came into fruition. Now experience the colossal collabo below off Mega’s The Realness II album!!!

3) The fantastic COUSIN FEO joins forces with the marvelous MURS for a bonafide banger conjured by HOBGOBLIN(featuring dope cuts by DJ DUBPLATES)!!! “Galactic Blacksmiths” immerses the listener in a competitive stadium environment where the crowd cheers on every exciting action! The flows keep your ears glued to the speakers while the beat elevates their game to new heights!

4) There’s a “Slight Rebellion Off Madison” & VINNIE PAZ is leading the troops to battle!!! C-LANCE crafts massive head nod heat that Boxcutter Pazzy utilizes to fuel his rage! He blasts the opposition into oblivion & leaves naysayers in a daze!!!

5) AGALLAH stomps out all suckers in sight on the “ArtGawd Phoenix” steamroller “True Indeed!!!” This track exhibits The Don Bishop at his most savage as he s**ts on all y’all weak ass artists then straight jacks you for your publishing!!! Ain’t nothin’ safe ’bout where things are headed. Blow your brains out or Ag will do it for ya!!!


6) EL GANT has MANY bangers on his “O.S.L.O.” project(That Preemo joint?!!? GOTDAMN!)but we kept returning to the INNOCENT? & KING MAGNETIC featured sizzler “Avirex!” DJ JON DOE put his foot into the production for a hardcore affair that spotlights three self-assured lyrical assassins!!! Turn the volume all the way up & check out the mic murderers as they rip the booth to shreds!!!

7) When envisioning the perfect countdown, it would have to include a banger like “This!!!” DRE COLOMBIAN RAW x RAS BEATS blew our minds with their tantalizing, top tier thrill ride thru the past! Dre recalls dark days of struggle & uncertainty while Ras complements the action with a surplus of ill scratches, rhythms, and beats that guarantee heavy rotation on your playlist!!! There’s more in store cause their upcoming “Crudo” platter is on the horizon. We can’t wait to hear what they come up with next!!!

8) You can’t really have a true countdown unless it contains a dope joint from FLEE LORD!!! Well the GHOST DAVE laced powder keg “We Was Gettin It Off” definitely fits the bill! If you’ve been a longtime listener of the rising mic ripper, ya already know what happens when he attacks a bouncy heater! Flee goes in for the kill & leaves corpses strewn across the boulevard!!!

9) “The Best Emcees” just got bodied by four god-level lyricists on new TECK-ZILLA crafted heat featuring RECOGNIZE ALI, DA FLYY HOOLIGAN, ELZHI & RX THE RAPPER!!! This joint is imbued with a decidedly tranquil, hypnotic arrangement used to lure in its prey before the bar slayers bring the lambs to slaughter! Now check out the track & experience a certified banger that gets better every time you hit PLAY!

10) We close out the countdown with a supreme slow burn sizzler that received HEAVY replay action around the office! The infinitely gifted LORD JAH-MONTE OGBON weaves superior wordplay throughout an astounding audio arrangement conceived & executed by TWIT ONE called “Alicia Keys In The Face!” The “Dis Tew Much” prime jewel(from the FXCK RXP imprint)is overflowing in opulence and lived rent free in our minds all week! It had us fallin’ back in love with the underground as commercial forces tried to pull us away!

Well that’s it for this week. Catch ya next time and…DON’T SLEEP!!!
