Everything we heard from the The Subconscious Mind EP by Souls of Mischief/Hieroglyphics legend Opio and Free The Robots was dope, and so we were hyped to hear the first single from their upcoming new full-length project, Sempervirens. Point Of View doesn’t disappoint, and you can listen for yourself below.

Blackalicious – ‘Blacka’
The new album from Blackalicious finally arrives next month, but you can hear the latest single from Gift of Gab and Chief Xcel right now. Blacka is a classic slice of Blackalicious action, and bodes well for the rest of the new project. Listen on the link below, and look out for Imani Vol. 1 on September 18.

Jigmastas – ‘Magnetize’/’Resurge’
There’s a retrospective collection of classic Jigmastas (DJ Spinna and Kriminul) records coming soon, and the group have released two new joints to celebrate. They sound just as dope now as they did in the 90s, and you can listen to snippets of both below.
Gangrene (Alchemist and Oh No) – ‘You Disgust Me’
A stream of the long-awaited new You Disgust Me album from Gangrene (Alchemist and Oh No) has been released, a week before it officially drops. Considering these are two of the best producers in the game, and the line-up includes Action Bronson, Evidence, Sean Price and Your Old Droog, its predictably dope, and you can check it out below.
Dynas & Tony Galvin – ‘Who U?’ feat. Slick Rick
Slick Rick The Ruler pops up on this crazy joint from Dynas & Tony Galvin. The animated video is basic but pretty funny to watch, and you can catch it below. Its from new album Big & Tall, coming soon.
STS x RJD2 – ‘Trunk Of My Computer’
Trunk Of My Computer is one of the standout cuts on the brilliant STS x RJD2 album by STS and RJD2, and now there’s a video too. Its nicely done, showing STS on the grind, literally selling out the trunk, old skool style. Watch below, and let us know what you think.
Atmosphere – ‘Sunshine’
Sunshine, from 2007 Atmosphere EP Sad Clown Bad Summer 9, has been given a special new video for the summer. It was created using nothing but solar power, which is pretty impressive. Watch the video and behind-the-scenes clips below. Props to Atmosphere for being environmentally conscious, because lets face it, its not very often we get to describe hip-hop artists as being that.
The Soloist & Domingo – ‘Backflippin’
Veteran producer Domingo has blessed emcee The Soloist with a supreme selection of rugged beats for this incredible new EP. The New Jersey artist is on point with his verses too, making this a project definitely worth checking out. Stream and buy below, and let us know what you think.
Apollo Brown – ‘Detonate’ feat. M.O.P.
We’ve been looking forward to the new album from beatmaker Apollo Brown for a minute, and if this latest single is a sign of what’s to come, we are now even more hyped. Detonate features M.O.P., and you can listen below. Lookout for Grandeur dropping September 25, with other guests including Your Old Droog, Oddisee, Freddie Gibbs and Evidence.
Listen here (H/T 2DopeBoyz).
Public Enemy – ‘No Sympathy From The Devil’
Public Enemy return with a video for No Sympathy From The Devil, taken from new album Man Plans God Laughs. It sees Chuck D spit charged verses as always, fitting well with the haunting visuals in the video. Watch below, and let us know what you think.
