D.I.T.C. legend Diamond D keeps the momentum of his 2014 The Diam Piece album moving with this new video for Jose Feliciano (don’t know that name? Shameful). As videos go, this one is hella cheesy, but there’s no way we ain’t posting up new music from Diamond.

Add-2 – ‘Set It Off’
Add-2 releases this second single from new album Prey For The Poor, and this time JAMLA honcho 9th Wonder is providing the beat himself. It’s an impressive effort, and you can listen below. Look out for the album coming next week.
Semi Hendrix – ‘Breakfast at Banksy’s’
Details were kept to a minimum a few weeks ago when Mello Music Group dropped the first single from new group Semi Hendrix, #4081. We figured Ras Kass was just featured on it, but it turns he is actually one half of the group, with Jack Splash making up the other half. Listen to the dope Breakfast at Banksy’s below, and pre-order the album here.
Open Mike Eagle, Busdriver, Milo et al – ‘Catcher of the Fade’
A few days ago we posted a track from an all-star line-up of California emcees, including many from the Project Blowed collective. Turns out it was from this new EP, featuring Open Mike Eagle, Busdriver, Nalpea, Milo and more. Catcher of the Fade is free to download, and you can cop it on the link below.
DJ Doo Wop – ‘Shadows of 1995’
Originally from the Concepts: Selektions album by Statik Selektah and Frank The Butcher (a project we can’t actually find any record of anywhere!), Doo Wop has now introduced Shadows of 1995 to a wider audience. It certainly makes you feel like you are back in that golden era, and you can check it out below.
Gangrene (Alchemist & Oh No) – ‘The Last Great Disgrace’
More mini-documentary than music video, the latest promo video from Gangrene (Alchemist and Oh No) sees them take a visit to a controversial former institution. Its disturbing viewing, but you can check it out below.
Illa J – ‘Never Left’
Illa J is intrinsically linked to the memory of his older brother, the maestro J Dilla. On new joint Never Left, he gives us a heartfelt account of the huge impact the legacy of Dilla still has on him, and how his spirit lives on every time he makes music. Its from Illa J’s upcoming new album, and you can listen below.
Sean Price – ‘Songs In The Key of Price’
Songs In The Key of Price is finally out, albeit now released under a whole different atmosphere since the sad death of Sean Price. A last minute artwork change, due to legal shit, means that early copies have now become collectors pieces, but you can stream the short but dope project below. Don’t forget that you can also still donate to the Sean P family fund here.
Tragedy – ‘Nuff Said’
Tragedy has dropped this slick video for soulful joint Nuff Said, shot on a trip to Amsterdam. It sees the Queens veteran spit over a nice beat from Shroom, and you can watch below.
Dayne Jordan – ‘Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood’
Dayne Jordan has released this video for the DJ Jazzy Jeff produced Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood, taken from his impressive Memoirs of Dayne Jordan album. Watch below, and tell us what you think.
