Black Spade – Spand (Prod By Knxwledge)

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012


 
Well executed and thoroughly modern socially conscious rap, mercifully devoid of the usual cliches associated with the words ‘conscious rap’. I may need to follow Knxwledge more closely, I liked the few of his productions I’ve heard so far.

Not crazy about tributes to clothing brands that aren’t Polo or Wu-Wear, but this is ok. Need to hear more from Goldie Glo.

VIDEO: J.K. The Rapper – Ready Or Not 2012

Thursday, January 19th, 2012


 
I’m often skeptical of young upstarts rapping over iconic beats, but this is pretty dope. Taking the thoughtful and introspective approach was definitely the right way to do it.

A$AP Ferg – Death B4 A Million

Tuesday, January 17th, 2012


 
I want a Ferg solo tape more than I want any other A$AP-related solo (SGP doesn’t count).
 

 

ScHoolboy Q – Hands On The Wheel Ft. A$AP Rocky

Friday, January 13th, 2012


 
So Habits & Contradictions leaked. I’m jumping around the tracklist now, went to the A$AP Rocky feature song because… well I just like Rocky. Q clearly has the superior skills between the two of them, which is just as evident here as it was on ‘Brand New Guy‘. But still, they do make a good pair on a track.

New visuals from the underrated Dr. Hovey & Isaiah the Gentleman album. Dig those early 90s infomercial effects.
