There’s now a video for Mos Def single Basquiat Ghostwriter. This being Mos, and this being dedicated to the late artist, its a prefictably pretentious visual, but still worth a watch. Let us know what you think.

Following on from the single Piece Be Still we posted a few days ago, you can now stream the full self-titled EP from 3rd Eye Contact (Cas Metah, Mellow Drum Addict, Defizit and EF Cuttin). It’s definitely worthy of your time, and you can listen and buy below.
Constant Deviants – ‘Standards’
Constant Deviants (M.I. and DJ Cutt) have released this new single, the latest from their decent Avant Garde album. It sounds dope, and you can listen below. Also go check out the album if you haven’t already.
Gangrene (Alchemist & Oh No) – ‘Sheet Music’ feat. Sean Price
Alchemist and Oh No have paid their own tribute to Sean Price with this smoked-out video for Sheet Music, from the new Gangrene album, You Disgust Me. The track features both Price and Havoc from Mobb Deep, with a slow-burner of a beat. Watch below, then go get the new album if you haven’t yet.
Rapsody – ‘Don’t Need It’ (remix) feat. Joey Bada$$
Jamla Squad emcee Rapsody is back with this dope remix of Don’t Need It, backed up with a beat from Young Guru, and a guest spot from Joey Bada$$. The original version featured on the recent Beauty & The Beast project, but you can check the remix out below. Hit us up with your comments.
Big Twins – ‘It’s A Stick Up’/’I Don’t Give a Shit’
Queens veteran Big Twins from Infamous Mobb has dropped this two-in-one video, spitting solid verses in his trademark gritty-as-fuck vocal tone. Both joints are taken from the Thrive 2 album, and you can watch the video below.
Mac Miller – ‘Break The Law’
Mac Miller has dropped another track from his upcoming new album, GO:OD AM. It’s laid back, down and dirty, with the Pittsburgh native ripping through a couple of tight verses. The new album drops next month, but you can listen to Break The Law below.
Dom Pachino & Bronze Nazareth – ‘War Poetry’
There’s now a full stream available of the new album from Wu-Tang Clan extended family Dom Pachino, of Killarmy, and producer Bronze Nazareth. Stylistically and thematically, Pachino hasn’t moved on much since Killarmy debuted many moons ago, which leaves the whole thing feeling dated. Still worth a listen though, mainly thanks to Bronze Nazareth’s beats. Listen below, and tell us what you think.
James D. Brown 3rd – ‘Be Sure’
Apollo Brown provides the beat for this debut single from James D. Brown 3rd. We don’t know much about the New York artist, but this is certainly a decent introduction. Its taken from his upcoming Harlem Is Timeless Vol. 1 album, and you can watch below.
Dice Raw – ‘Trouble’
Frequent The Roots collaborator Dice Raw has dropped this new single, featuring Tiani Victoria. It’s a somber affair that drags a bit towards the end, but is still worth a listen. Check it out below.
