The BSF bar slayers grab ahold of an immaculate CHOP LA ROK & RARE SCRILLA powered arrangement then verbally brutalize the opposition without mercy!!! As the dreams of their rivals crumble into a fit of despair, AMBIDECKSTIKS supplies raw cuts to complement the proceedings!!!
2) Quiet as its kept, DJ JAYMOB is one of the best beatmakers around!!!! On the brand new sizzler “Listen To This S**t Again,” the production powerhouse teams up with rhyme juggernaut RUSTE JUXX for a sonic showcase of epic proportions! “Paying Homage To Hip Hop” can be done through art, dance, fashion & other realms of the culture…but Jay & Juxx show love with undeniable heat that you’ll keep on repeat every day!!!
3) RECOGNIZE ALI’s ascendancy in the underground knows no bounds as he leaves haters punching the air in anger on the SOUL CHEMIST laced sizzler “Yes We Can!” The “ALI” audio heater possesses an ethereal nature that becomes infused with soulful boom bap to elevate it even further! Once Ali catches wreck on the mic the sky’s the limit. Anything goes when your DNA is embedded with creativity!!!
4) APOLLO BROWN & PLANET ASIA kept us Insomniacs “Wide Awake” with their latest sizzler from “Sardines!” The casual groove transmits “a day in the life” type vibe that P.A. effortlessly taps into & makes his own! The duo deliver a down to earth essence that never fails to draw the audience in…but let’s face it, the truth is that their talent’s otherworldly!
5) HUS KINGPIN’s powerful poetic musings can seduce the most loyal bride & have her leaving her man at the altar for a rendezvous with Lord Wavo! On the “Threesome 4: Dirty Secrets” sizzler “Night Writer,” #TheWinner flexes his skills over MACAPELLA’s alluring instrumental and conquers the female species yet again! You should respect & admire his prowess with the ladies but also expect him to be home bangin’ your girl.
6) JOEY MAJORS & ETO are creating stadium music that will make every concertgoer lose their s**t!!! On the GREA8GAWD featured banger “Plausible Deniability,” THANOS BEATS pulls out all the stops so the crew can assault the track with the intensity of a starving shark closing in on its kill! This is some gravel pit, under the dirt type steez…and best believe, we’re lovin’ every minute!!!
7) The aptly titled “Agasaki 13” triumph “Long Over Due” features mic mercenary AGASAKI LO eviscerating seriously addictive audio heat laced by the legendary CLARK KENT!!! If ever there was a time that Hip Hop needed a joint like this it’s NOW!!! Ag & Clark bring back the old New York for two minutes and 21 seconds! Pray for an entire album from the duo so our Rotten Apple dreams can last a little while longer!
8) SPICE PROGRAMMERS are clearly on some world domination steez as they link up with the amazing AWON for the “Transatlantic S**t” sizzler “Scotch Bonnets!” The Supa Dupa Fly supreme heater had us doing multiple backflips in the office and smackin’ our secretary senseless when this sensational slice of soul-fueled audio excitement erupted from the speakers! All we can say is we feel freer than we’ve ever been! Get a shot of sonic adrenaline below!!!
9) The competition can’t come close to the combined talent of KAHLEE, XP THE MARXMAN, TONE SPLIFF & DK…but “Don’t Take It Personal” because they’ve always been better than you. Look, sit down & face facts – the lyricism’s next level, the cuts are so dynamic you’re not even worthy of listening to them & the production makes your beats sound like you programmed them on your 9 year old’s Casiotone keyboard! If you wanna compete try harder. Then again, don’t bother cause next to them you’ll always be trash!
10) Why is it that whenever SNOTTY teams up with super producer TXGER VPPERCVT their tracks contain so much emotional impact that we find ourselves replaying them relentlessly?!? The duo’s latest masterwork “FLEX” is the most recent gem to get us amped up for their forthcoming project & ya already know how these two get down! The Umbrella lyricist pulls us into his world for a true “fly on the wall” experience while TXGER supplies the rhythmic pulse of our daily lives.
Well that’s it for this week. Catch ya next time and…DON’T SLEEP!
