Don’t Sleep On These New Releases
Another onslaught of audio heat invaded our office but we managed to whittle it down to a Weekly Top Ten! Get yourself in gear & tap in below!!!
1) Drumroll please!!! TEAM DEMO, hits ya wit’ the “Quest Love Bounce” as a reminder that they’re takin’ Hip Hop back to its roots!!! The WAIS P, SKYZOO & PLANET ASIA featured SOULSPAZM slaughterfest is a lyrical bloodbath showcasing three conquering kings toppling over the opposition’s empire! The “It’s A Demo” introductory explosive will be the tipping point that makes their rivals quit rhyming. All things fall apart when you go toe-to-toe with this stellar crew!!!
2) The Rhyme Inspector PERCEE P continues his legendary run over a TT5BR seared sonic sizzler titled “Third Degree Burns!!!” Listening to higher level lyricism delivered by the iconic MC reinforces the elevated status he holds over his peers! Combine skills like this with TT5BR’s mammoth production and you get an underground triumph that incinerates everything in its path!!!
3) MICKEY DIAMOND x BIG GHOST LTD are back at it with a “Gucci Ghost 3” powder keg called “Patrizia’s Interlude!” The two elite entities are already in the underground Hall Of Fame, so it’s no surprise that they dominate the scene with each new release! Mickey destroys all opps with ease while Big Ghost sifts through the wreckage & tosses any survivors in a furnace!!!
4) It will be a “Strange Future” indeed if SAGA, ICEBURG SNUB & MAC MONTANA aren’t around to rip the mic! That won’t happen though because rhyme assassins like these reign eternal!!!! The lyrical juggernauts make most modern day mic slayers look weak by comparison. They pull competitors out of paradise & thrust them into hell!!!
5) GREA8GAWD & ROME STREETZ kept listeners waitin’ for weeks to hear the full version of “Avant Gawd” & GOTDAMMIT, this joint exceeded all expectations!!! The legendary LORD JAMAR is behind the boards for this sonic thrill ride that finds the diabolical duo deliverin’ an aggressive assault of incendiary lyricism! Y’all ain’t heard nothin’ yet if ya ain’t heard the track below! Salute all involved for crafting a surefire winner!!!
6) HUS KINGPIN’s going door-to-door to deliver that “Snow White!!!” It’s a “Holiday Hus 2: Cocaine Christmas,” so you muthaf**kas are being gifted with a dope joint laced by RELENSE!!! When Wavo comes down that chimney he’s liberating all the presents you’ve got under the tree! No Dasher, No Dancer, but plenty of video vixens & enough ill lyrics to keep ya rockin’ all through the night!
7) 1999 WRITE THE FUTURE, BADBADNOTGOOD, WESTSIDE GUNN & CONWAY THE MACHINE got us all up in our feelings with the nostalgia-inducing sonic treat “Mint Chocolate!” Nothing hits home more than live instrumentation & top tier bars from the underground kings! This track ain’t just music to our ears. It’s LIFE. And we’re blessed to be living it!
8) What’s your “Networth?” Any number you run off can’t compare to the value of this new “Lost World” joint crafted by FASTLIFE X SHERMAN! The brooding soundscape is a call to action for all true believers to go out & get dat paper!!! Ya know how to do. Ain’t no double digits in the account! You have to go bigga! Six figgas! Or, more!
9) “Your songs come on they be like Naaahhh skip!” Well, that’s definitely not the case with YOUR OLD DROOG & ROME STREETZ’s new SADHUGOLD laced joint, “Northface With The ACG’S!!!” We’re talkin’ about a whirlwind of ill rhymes and distinct details that let us know YOD & Rome have been trackin’ us all these decades in NYC!!! It’s pure heat from your favorite underground masterminds! So don’t be a problem child like John Ritter’s kid. Y’all best to go ahead & PRESS PLAY!!!
10) If you’re listening to this on a Sunday, forgive us of our sins! SUPREME CEREBRAL unleashes lascivious lyricism from “Loose Change 2” featuring the turntable mastery of DJ TMB! The STINKY J seared sonic sizzler “Smut Film” is a scandalous showcase of Bugzy’s superior prowess on the mic. We get sex, violence, and a barrage of breathtaking bars. Who could ask for anything more?
Well that’s it for this week. Catch ya next time and…DON”T SLEEP!
