We’ve been supporting Skyzoo since ”Click” which I believe was released in 2007. Through the years Skyzoo has released tons of wicked music. The latest is released by Mello Music Group and is called ”Retropolitan”. Entirely produced by the Chocolate Boy Wonder a.k.a. Soul Brother no.1.
Sa-Roc – ”Mother Tongue”
Sa-Roc tweeted this video a week or two! Not sure where it comes from or if it is something to be released down the line…fi you’ve followed us long enough then you know how we feel about Sa-Roc and her art!
Little Brother feat. Madison McFerrin – ”Black Magic (Make it Better)”
More music from North Carolina! This time is the nowdays duo Little Brother’s turn to present their video off the newly released album “May The Lord Watch”. ”Black Magic (Make it Better)” is produced by Focus… .
Vic Spencer – ”Bahbarians”
We have known about Vic Spencer for 2-3 years. This is the first ever video of Vic Spencer we’ve ever posted though. ”Bahbarians” comes off the album called ”Bah Wounds”.
Rapsody – ”Nina”
New visuals off the Rapsody album ”Eve”. Personally, I still haven’t checked this. If you have and think its worth going through let me know on the comments!
Common feat. Swizz Beatz – ”Hercules” (Episode 2)
Being that we published what we didn’t know was part 1 we also have to publish part 2 of ”Hercules”. This is off ”Let Love” dropping end of this month.
This is to me another ordinary Common release! Really, I haven’t heard the full project yet but for what I’ve heard (and seen!!) so far I’m not expecting a big surprise!
J Rawls x Nova – ”On Spittin'”
Best Producer On The Mic and Lone Catalysts member J Rawls teams up with Nova on a project to be called ”The Profit” to be released later this year.
Ras Kass – ”Shark Week”
Since Ras Kass released his debut album ”Soul on Ice” in 1996, he has released tons of music. Along with Planet Asia, Ras Kass has probably been one of the underground hip-hop artists out of Cali releasing most music.
”Soul on Ice 2” is being released throught the Columbia label Mello Music Group and features artists such as Styles P, Lil Fame, Immortal Technique, Cee-Lo Green, Snoop Dog and many others.
Verb T & Pitch 92 – ”Tragedy & Comedy”
Seen this duo perform only a couple of days ago! The new by Verb T & Pitch 92 drops August 30th throught High Focus Records. This is the second single off ”A Question of Time”.
Donwill feat. The MTA – ”Service Delay”
These Tanya Morgan members always manage to flip music just the way I like it! If you still haven’t checked the Donwill album ”One Word No Space” I recommend you do! I ended up buying 6/12 tracks on my first listen! I just might buy the rest of the album in the next few days! By the way…album is entirely produced by Von Pea!
NEMS – ”Heavy Metal”
Really feeling the deliver by NEMS on this Jazzsoon production off the ”Gorilla Monsoon” album by NEMS dropped earlier this year. To purchase follow this link!
Rapsody feat. D’Angelo & GZA – ”Ibtihaj”
I’m not a fan of videos being premiered on places such as Time Square. On the other hand this is the very first video off the upcoming album ”Eve” by Rapsody. ”Ibtihaj” is produced by 9th Wonder and features The Genius a.k.a. The GZA and D’Angelo. Money from Roc Nation was also invested to get Roxanne Shanté and Mary J. Blige to feature the video.
