Daniel Son waits for the beat to filter thru the speakers and shows no mercy as he snuffs it from behind! If you’re going up against these two ya better stick your head in the guillotine & get it over with. Chopping Block Records has a heater that’s cuttin’ off heads!

The audio aficionados curate the tempo, rhythm and style of the entire production as soulful harmonies coalesce with hardcore boom bap! P.A. drops bars from the astral plane, Willie takes it to the streets, and Big Twins breaks bricks across your skull with his gravely flow! This is the art top collectors covet & the estimated value is PRICELESS!

6) JAMAL GASOL x MANZU BEATZ stack up the cash on a wish fulfillment masterwork called “Get Rich Or Settle!” The music world should know by now that “Jamal Gasol Is The Future”…and if they don’t, this joint will definitely place the Dirty Waters rhyme renegade at the forefront of the action. ManZuBeatz provides stellar sonic assistance for Jamal’s brilliant wordplay. Together they dominate the scene and go across the board to make it happen!
7) ELCAMINO hits us with that funky Buffalo bounce on the 38 SPESH powered heat blast “Street Signs!” The lyrical savage reps for the 716 in a major way by delivering ice cold rhymes over the Rochester, NY producer’s ultra-charged underground arrangement.

Slick rhymes are conjured into existence & flood the atmosphere as your head nods uncontrollably to the soul-fueled rhythms. Competitors need to throw in the towel. Do it now because you won’t get a second chance. The lyricist is primed to destroy everything you hold dearly. Get the f**** outta Dodge or get blown away!
9) SUPREME CEREBRAL reteams with ROB VIKTUM for a WAIS P featured loosie called “Hollow Heads!” The verbal vigilantes & audio executioner bring serious weight to the proceedings with content that is undeniably RAW! Bugzy Nino & Wais P visualize powerful scenarios and manifest them on wax! Rob Viktum conjures rhythms that create a dark mood then opens the floodgates to a wave of pure brutality!
10) TONE KELLY shows these young guns how OG’s from “the era of respect your elders” get down on a KNG BONDALERO power blast titled “What A Problem!” The mic gladiator commands the arena by displaying his amazing prowess on the mic with a masterclass in storytelling. Back in the day REAL gangsters played by the rules while today’s social media thugs murder their enemies with no hesitation – simply for the clout! FALCON OUTLAW drives the point home with a compelling hook that ratchets up the intensity. If you don’t want a problem step the f*** back!!!
Well that’s it for this week. Catch ya next time and…DON’T SLEEP!
