The Year Of The Beast album from Def Jux era C-Rayz Walz has been repackaged and re-released, and to celebrate there’s a new video for Blackout. Its pretty insane, and you can watch below.
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).
Noveliss – ‘Toonami’
Noveliss from Clear Soul Forces is one busy dude, and here drops yet another quality EP. Inspired by Anime and other cartoons, the new set sees Nov drop gems over beats from Scott Xylo, and you can listen and buy below.
Check the PRhyme inspired EP by Noveliss from a few months back here.
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.
Marvelous Mag and Hus Kingpin – ‘Cafe Music’
The Winners crew members Marvelous Mag and Hus Kingpin have teamed up for this laid-back joint. No word on where this is from, but this is one crew who never seem to stop working, so it likely forms part of a new EP or album coming soon. Listen below.
Eloh Kush and DUS – ‘Circadian Rhythm’
Eloh Kush and DUS are new to us, but this lead single from upcoming album AngelDus is pretty damn impressive. The full project isn’t set to drop until October, but it has definitely left us wanting more. Hear it for yourself below, and keep watching for the full project in the coming months.
QNC – ‘At The Same Time’ feat. Lil Fame
Lil Fame from M.O.P. joins QNC (Q Ball and Curt Cazal) on this dope-as-fuck joint. Simple but effective beat, creative verses and a fly hook. What more could you ask for? Listen below, then cop it here (including b-side Demo).
Lone Catalysts – ‘Age of Aquarian’
Dope Folk Records have dropped another lost jewel from Lone Catalysts (J Rawls and J Sands), and its an absolute banger. Its from the The Prequel 94-96 EP, which also features the previous tracks we reported on, Hot This Year/Rhyme & Uplift. J Rawls was one of the best producers from the late 90s indy area, and its a crying shame he’s not more active now. Listen below, and let us know what you think.
Vursatyl – ‘It’s Nothin’
Vursatyl continues the run of singles from his impressive Crooked Straights album with a new video. Watch the video for It’s Nothin’ below, and let us know if you like it. For those who haven’t yet checked out the full album, do it now.
Spectacular Diagnostics – ‘Raw Game’
We loved the Raw Exotic EP from Spectacular Diagnostics, and the new full-length Raw Game album is dope too. With rich beats and guest spots from the likes of Quelle Chris, its definitely worthy of your time. Nice artwork too. Stream below, and hit us with your comments.
