G-Side – Dreamz (produced by Arkitek engineered by Block Beattaz )

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

Some new G-Side heat with Arkitek on production and Block Beattaz engineering, big thanks to Codie G for this one. This track is part of the new DGK Stevie/Baller’s Eve/DJ Dirrty mixtape which also features music from several other notable Alabama residents like Bentley and Jackie Chain along with Freddie Gibbs, Gripplyaz, and a couple more rappers who are also worth your headphone time. You can download the whole mixtape HERE.

G-Side – Dreamz

If you’re not up on G-Side and Block Beattaz I would strongly suggest downloading the essential Hunstville International mixtape. Seriously, go get that shit. Get G Mane’s Sunday On Da Porch too while you’re at it, love that one.

VIDEO: Rich Boy & Chili Chil “On Top Of The World”

Friday, January 29th, 2010

Sure, this is posted on all of the major blogs, but I wanted to include it here mainly as a footnote in the development of the future phenom that is Chili Chil. Rich Boy kinda rips it with the TI impression, but I wish Chil had a verse.

Jackie Chain “Meet A Bitch”

Jackie and Block Beattaz take a page out of Prof. MJG and Mr. Fat Mack’s syllabus. As you should expect, the beat is a winner and Jackie delivers two solid verses.

Yelawolf ‘Trunk Muzik’

Friday, January 1st, 2010

I have to be the hardest, I got diamond nuts

Burn One and Yela have a winner here. Some of Yela’s faster flows on tracks like “Trunk Muzik” and “Good To Go” are going to impress a lot of people who normally wouldn’t care about a White guy from Alabama who “sounds like Eminem”. Will Power and Supahot Beats absolutely crush the production. While his previous indie releases were quality, it really feels like Yela has settled into himself on this one and the results are pretty incredible. The mix of raw fast raps and more melodic stylings just plain works.

1. Trunk Muzik [produced by Will Power]

3. Good To Go feat. Bun-B of UGK [produced by Will Power]

5. Box Chevy Pt. 3 feat. Rittz [produced by Will Power]
6. F.U. [produced by Will Power]
7. Lick The Cat feat. Diamond of Crime Mob [produced by Will Power]
8. Speak Her Sex feat. Nikkiya [produced by Will Power]
9. I Wish feat. Raekwon [produced by KP]
10. In This Club [produced by Will Power]

G-Side ‘Huntsville International’

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

huntsville-international_f03_sample

Obviously this is late, and everywhere, but how could we not post it? Watching the ascension of the Huntsville movement has been extremely entertaining and rewarding. Huntsville International is a hugely important project for these guys, and security hiccups aside, they should reap huge dividends from what is an insanely fun and consistent album.

Early favorites (leaks aside) include “This Groove” “Rising Sun” and “College Girls”. Yelawolf’s verse on “Who’s Hood” may be his most impressive yet. Block Beattaz continue to take things to elevated planes, and Mick Vegas keeps in step. Speaking of Mick, I thought Burn One was going to host this thing? While I read and respect the bloggers involved, I don’t need to hear them on this record. My only other complaint would be the beat on “What’s It All About”. Why take a spot away from Mali and the boys and allow Johnny Juliano provide an imitation BB beat? Nitpicking aside, you NEED this.

ENJOY

KD ‘Soul Inn’

Thursday, October 1st, 2009

KD3

Burn One and the fellas over at BLVDST.com just released this latest street album from Alabama’s KD. We sang the praises of Untouchable earlier this year, and Soul Inn continues in the tradition of excellent beat selection and smooth rhyming. Mick Vegas, B-Phlat and B Krik crush the production here. This is big.

Enjoy
