Friday, November 4th, 2011STREAM: Danny Brown & Black Milk – Nando’s (Itunes Bonus) b/w OH SHIT is that from Top Gun?
Friday, November 4th, 2011
First of, here’s a stream of the bonus Itunes track from the Black & Brown EP. You can buy the track HERE.
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Now that you’ve heard it, listen to Berlin’s Take My Breath Away, specifically the drums.
Looks like I’m not the only one who made this guess either.
VIDEO: G-SIDE: Live in Trondheim
Friday, November 4th, 2011
Footage from G-Side’s performance at the 2011 UKA festival in Norway, put together by S.L.A.S.H. The song playing is from the new album iSLAND, which you can pre-order now. I saw them do the whole track live this past weekend in Brooklyn and it’s even crazier than the short snippet we hear here would imply.
STREAM: G-Side – Look Up
Thursday, November 3rd, 2011
Pre-orders for G-Side’s iSLAND, dropping on 11/11, are now available via their Bandcamp. The pre-order includes a bonus track, which you can stream below.
Just so we’re all on the same page, take note of Clova putting his flow on Hulk steroids.
MarQ Spekt & Kno – MacheteVision (Album)
Wednesday, October 26th, 2011
Considering our past history with Spekt, offering an objective take on this album is impossible. So here’s an entirely subjective one – this might be the album I’ve been waiting to hear from Spekt for as long as I’ve been aware of him. He has come close before, made some very good tracks, but never to the level we see here. Many will undoubtedly check this for Kno’s production and that’s fine, it’s good to have a familiar anchor when venturing into new territory. As strong as the beats are though, they are not the main draw here. Spekt’s bars are the star of the show, through and through. Their content is dense and I’m sure there will be much to find that wasn’t apparent on first listen. But the strength and fluidity of his flow are immediately obvious. I’ve said for ages that Spekt is an underrated talent, this album goes above and beyond to justify that claim.

Quelle Chris – Shotgun Ft. Danny Brown & Roc Marciano
Tuesday, October 18th, 2011
The eye-catching b-side from Quelle Chris’ new single “Basquiat”, which just dropped today on iTunes. Both this song and the a-side will be featured on Quelle’s upcoming Shotgun & Sleek Rifle album, which looks crazy as shit based on the description and the track list.

Jackie Chain – Parked Outside (S&C By Soul Division) / Big K.R.I.T. – Money On The Floor (S&C By Soul Division)
Friday, October 7th, 2011
SteadyB and Soul Division are doin’ thangs. Specifically, we’re doing a chopped and screwed compilation which we will drop in a near future. Expect to see a grip of new and classic tracks selected with care by a distinguished and discerning brain trust comprised of the guys in Soul Division (who will naturally handle all the chops and slows), Blast and myself. Rest assured that we will take, drink and smoke all the drugs we can get our hands on to guarantee you the best and stoniest quality possible.
The following two tracks may or may not make it onto the compilation. Either way, they should give you a good idea of what to expect. Hope you enjoy.

Silky Johnson – Fast Life Instrumental
Monday, September 26th, 2011
I’ve had this beat on infinite loop since Silky sent it to me a while ago. I’ve actually just listened to it twice in a row while making this post. Not kidding. You might also remember it from this Western Tink song.
It’s going to be on Silky’s Hater of The Year instrumental album, you can download a free 5 track preview of the album below.
