Insomniac Magazine delivers the highest order of underground Heavy Hitters! Experience the power of the Weekly Top Ten!!!
1) KOUNT FIF, CHINO XL, COPYWRITE & DJ HOPPA prove they’re at the top of the underground food chain as all rivals are reduced to bottom feeders on ill heat titled “The Hashira!!!” The lyricism, production, and turntable excellence shatter the ceiling beyond elite to transform into something otherworldly!!! This is music made by gods yet meant for our mortal ears to appreciate! Play it once in the day at your leisure & you’ll be compelled to keep the joint on all night!!!
2) CHUBS unleashes volatile verses over an ill FUMES THE THREAT powered soundscape for a sonic beatdown titled “Bloody Turnbuckle!!!” The “Bruiser Brody” banger sounds like you’re in the middle of a cage match and a murder scene(which is probably the same thing when Chubs enters the arena)! Don’t f**k wit’ Chubs when he goes on a rampage! Money’s on his mind & you’re blockin’ his path to the bank!!!
3) FLEE LORD x CRISIS keep cookin’ with a CONWAY THE MACHINE featured “Full Court Press” sizzler titled “Drum Mobb!!!” We’re immediately placed into a reflective mind set with the serene soundscape and mellow vibe that belie the savage nature of the heralded mic beasts! It’s time to drum up support from Hip Hop Heads the world over & pledge your full allegiance to the Mobb!!!
4) RAZ FRESCO & DANIEL SON surpass all your moves combined as they take us to the “Northside” on “What’s The Mission!!!” Dollar signs are on the agenda when they find new rooms to enter & confidently bank on their skills to always pay the bills! You’ve been given a special assignment from the duo so don’t f**k this one up. And your mission of the day’s to PRESS PLAY!!!
5) If you’re “Waiting For Something To Happen,” brace yourself for the ESTEE NACK & PRO DILLINGER featured, ENOCH crafted heater “S.O.S.” Help is on the way in the form of an untamed audio explosive that’ll make you start tossing Molotov cocktails around town!!! Nack Daddy is sippin’ whiskey while spittin’ rhymes in your face! But when Pro makes ’em spit out his babies y’all know the party’s over!!!
6) ROC MARCIANO is targeting his competitors in style cause he’s armed with killer instincts & a “Gold Crossbow to boot!!!” It’s time to get medieval on your monkey ass so the enigmatic mic assassin is pullin’ out all stops! Many people ask if he knows where the bodies are buried. The answer is yes because he helped ’em dig their graves!!!
7) G FAM BLACK x KILLABONG throw “Salt In The Wound” in the form of their killer title triumph from the duo’s cinematic collabo opus!!! G possesses one of the most distinctive voices on the underground and he puts it to excellent use over the producer’s hardcore arrangement!!! Do you want a revolution or retribution? We’ll choose both as long as G Fam Black is leading the charge!!!
8) DNTE is at it again!!! The mic assassin commits “Cinematic Murder” on the masses with his new self-laced “Paper Cranes” sizzler!!! If MGM is ever looking to cast a black James Bond with elite lyrical skills, nobody does it better than this man!!! Who’s The Boss? You all thought it was Tony Danza? DNTE keeps the house in order each & every time!!!
9) COOKIN SOUL & THE MUSALINI join forces with THA GOD FAHIM for supreme “MACKARONI” steez called “92 Olympics!!!” The winning streak continues as the lyrical geniuses and production visionary traverse the globe from New York to Brazil then double back to destroy the competition. It’s just another day in the life of a champion. Go watch ’em make another mil while you’re home counting pennies!
10) THE BAD SEED pays homage to late, great lyricist Pumpkinhead with a heartfelt S-TEWE laced sizzler called “Peeaych!” When tapping into his vulnerable side, the supreme spitter exposes a wealth of emotions every listener can relate to. Love, loss, and suffering is just a part of life but the realization doesn’t remove the pain when tragedy hits home.
Well that’s it for this week. Catch ya next time and…DON’T SLEEP!
