Don’t Sleep On These New Hip Hop Releases
The Top 10 realness is here & Insomniac Magazine’s gonna bring it to ya! Check out the latest weekly installment below!
1) HUS KINGPIN x ESTEE NACK put serious pressure on the competition with “Slime Wave” heat called “Benzomethylecgonine!” Yeah, we know it’s a mouthful but all bets are off when the team comes to play. Grounded reality takes a backseat to your imagination for nearly 4 minutes of sonic pleasure! Fortes blesses the boards with next level production that sounds like its transmitting from another galaxy. Lord Wavo & The Nack Daddy build ’em up then break ’em down. They’re fulfilling their wildest dreams while your life remains a nightmare.
2) ESTEE NACK x GRUBBY PAWZ reign over their rivals with armageddon level intensity on “ALLTYPESOFWEAPONZ!” The wiry bounce of the supreme soundscape fuels Nacky Chan to perform acrobatic lyrical flips throughout the track while Grubby Pawz serves as sonic sensei for the verbal exhibition. The duo are making straight serious moves. It ain’t a game out here. Y’all best to stop playin’!
3) GHOSTFACE KILLAH pulls the heist of a lifetime on a Danny Caiazzo produced heater called “Conditioning!” The Wu-Tang legend is still knocking out the frauds with his prize fighter championship flow. A smooth flute-laden soundscape gets bodied by one of the best to ever do the damn thang. Get gutta wit’ the Iron Man of this Hip Hop s**t. Tony Starks is back in action!
4) VINDETTA x SUPREME CEREBRAL glide across a lavish landscape of audio opulence called “The Prestige!” Majestic gems of sovereign knowledge are punctuated by The Prestigious Beatsmith’s tranquil grooves, lush bassline, and jazzy horns of triumph. Bugzy Nino & The Dart Unit mic titan give listeners the perfect collabo. Their immense creativity transport us from a mundane existence into a serene plane of sonic nirvana!
5) It’s always been laughable to us when younger Hip Hop fans dismiss the elders in the game. Some people truly believe mic skills have a drop off point once you close in on 40. Well, we have big news for you. The one & only ICE-T just stomped all over your weak ass assumptions in one fell swoop with the release of the Ringleader DJ Ace laced banger “Feds In My Rearview!” Think about this. It’s been 10 years since Ice delivered any solo heat…yet he returns to the scene sounding more hungry than you raw ass muthaf***as who are fresh off the block. The Original Gangster has long since established himself as The Foundation of this s**t but you’re still doubting his influence. For now Ice & Ace are givin’ you one single & that’s because they’re generous. Anything more would highlight how wack y’all really are. You better put down the mic & pick up another career!
6) RALPHIIE REESE x DANIEL SON deliver a top tier lyrical assault over some grimy production greatness called “WTF!” It’s time to check the high level strategy as the deadly mic destroyers do damage. Dart Unit & Brown Bag Money bring the underground heat you can’t find ANYWHERE else! Experience that celestial thug music that can be felt throughout the universe!
7) BIG TWINS x RIGZ remain “Infamous Minded” on a Chup The Producer laced banger overtaking the underground. The grimy mic griots run down their hardcore surroundings with details so vivid you’ll feel like you’re standing next to ’em on the block. When the duo talk about surviving the streets they drop the cold, hard facts without embellishment. You can’t possess a weak state of mind in their part of town. There’s no room for being nice when you can be infamous!
8) GFDD air out their enemies on a Ghost Ryda powered banger called “Ventilation!” G.FISHER & D DAVE have been dropping deadly bars of destruction since the top of the year…but in our opinion, THIS joint is their best! The savage spitters dive into the endless audio ocean of sound & backstroke into all that boom bap glory without even working up a sweat. You weak emcees better run for cover. The ship that kept you afloat is sinking fast.
9) THE DEITY, V delivers murderous flows while drop kicking all enemies on the brand new heater “Dim Mak Homicide!” Br00tal Productions is on the check-in for the verbal extermination taking place in plain view. You receive the death touch for your troubles. Expect nothing less. Y’all wanna know what the pen do? Enter the arena but don’t expect to walk out.
10) RHINOCEROS FUNK, WHITEOWL, YAHZEED, and DJ RTRANE hit ’em with that dope ass SOPHISTICATED SAVAGE flow on the Bombeardo powered “Ape Punch!” The rhyme warriors are smokin’ muthaf***as with an arsenal of lyrical artillery on a high octane heater that demands to be played at top volume! Separately they’re powerful but collectively they’re UNSTOPPABLE! Unleash the beast & PRESS PLAY!
Well that’s it for this week. Catch ya next time and…DON’T SLEEP!
