First time i heard of Clan Destined was on the "Kumite" song with "Methuzulah" and while im grabbing across a bunch of dope songs off "Self Titled" i found some features, they're also familiar to me like Pudge, or Senor Kaos. Self Titled is a audibly album you can play without any lapses, You'll find relaxed pieces and party tracks on various beat styles. All things considered "Self Titled" is a fresh and advisable piece of Hip Hop. Complete Album Stream, Purchase and Download via Bandcamp.

Fuck the police.
This mixtape is a month old now, but just found the way to our inbox. New York Rapper Ellementt presents his latest Mixtape "Project Blue Beam". It features beats by J. Dilla, 9th Wonder, Reckonize Real as well as self produced stuff.
Unfortunately the End gets a little weak, but the first 5 tracks are dope !!
The duo of M-Tri and DJ Leecy T is reminiscent of the pairing that Guru and DJ Premier formed with Gangstarr, as an Emcee and DJ embodies the very essence of Hip Hop music. Suicidal Hype Shit is the quintessential anthem for the New York underground Hip Hop movement as it represents the grit, mettle and tenacity of a fresh corps of creatives who march on to the beat of a kick and a snare.
The Email said, that Bloggers need to post this and somehow the mail was tagged with my name by Solo (?!). Well, whoever tagged it with my name, was pretty right, suggesting i might like this, so, i share this with u people because it needs to be listened. Raw grimey rap without fancy ish. Plain and simple.
The Brainstormers is a collective of the Rappers Praverb, AL Laureate, Cayoz da Beast, O*zee and DJ Grazzhoppa.

Here's another Track of HaLos upcoming Free EP "Heatwriter II" dropping Feb 1st. This track is a beast and i hope the EP will be too. A potential upcomer for 2011.
The first time i heard of Schoolboy Q was some weeks ago as i saw the feature video with Jay Rock called "Whats the word".
Somehow Schoolboy Q decided to give his latest Album "Setbacks" out for free, after it dropped via itunes 2 weeks ago. Is it because of the lack of interest?! Missing sales?! Whatever, it is some great music for free, but if u like what u hear, u might consider buying it at itunes anyway.
Hip-hop took everything from soul. They got the pain from Syl Johnson, the melodies from The Delfonics and The Stylistics, the drums from Melvin Bliss (or rather Bernard Purdie), and the gangster shit from Curtis Mayfield. So it’s about time hip-hop gave something back besides royalties (“I’m sitting in the house now that was built with the Wu-Tang money,” -Syl Johnson).
Wildcookie sentimentalizes the same substances as Pusha T, but instead of summoning fiends with virulent couplets, Anthony Mills recalls his favorite heroin(e)-addicted jazz players with a 1974 falsetto. He’s singing about what the best rappers rap about: drugs. Take into account the incredibly funky beats and you’ve got a soul project that hip-hop heads will be able to appreciate without removing their mean mugs.
A Wildcookie/Ghostface collaboration is at the top of my wish list. The album, Cookie Dough, drops February 21. Here are some select cuts.
This is a compilation of various tracks from Pomona CA rapper, Skeem Price. This mixtape was compiled by DJ Buddy and hosted by Chuck Dizzle of the indie Hip-Hop station, HomeGrown Radio.

On Napalm, Immortal Technique joins Da Circle to plot a coupe de tat on the industry and set the world stage ablaze with their fiery rhetoric and revolutionary chants.
Homies off the Hypegod blog sent me Orion's Stencil some days before the official release and im sorry that i missed to post it until today. The reason is that me and my friends played this album in rotation and this was more important to us (Haha). Much respect to Melanin 9 and Hypedog for this dope album with all that fresh features on it, dope verses by Cyrus Malachi, Blasphemy and Triple Darkness and all that dope producers serving this banging Hip Hop earthed beats like, Chemo, Jon Phonics, Anatomy, Munoz and Beat Butcha. Real Uk Hip Hop straight from the underground.
Richmonds Nickelus F dropped a new FREE ! Mixtape called "Yellow Gold" today. Entirely produced by Ohbliv except "One in a Million" which is produced by Madlib and also features Aloe Blacc! I didnt had the Chance to listen to it, but his previous Mixtapes were dope, so this is a no brainer.
Solo said this reminds him of the "Tried By 12" single. Yeah dat.
Never heard of this cat, but that`s why I like GrandGood they always digg deep.
A thai-sample and couple of blunts and there you have it. Sweet.
“The Stuyvesants” is a collaborative effort between music producer Allan Cole (Algorythm), and record collector Darien Victor Birks (Flwrpt). Both reside in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, NY. The two wanted to work together on a project where they could incorporate several of their talents, related to music and design. They wanted to do this under a moniker that would pay homage to the ’70s. The collaboration allowed them to do four major things, design, beat dig, produce amazing music, and simply have fun.
Pretty nice Beat Tape right before sleep, so no more words. Good Nite!

Sehr frischer Wind. Wie ein ICE mit 300sachen Durchfahrt nachdem man sich den Schnee ausm Schlüpper pulen muss. Der Beat ist ein kleines Wunder. Wie gesagt sehr frisch.
Dank an V. Raeter ihm sein Facebook.
Talib Himself offers a Full Album Stream of his new an 5th Solo Studio Album at his myspace page. It hits the Stores / iTunes in two days. Buy it, if u like it.
Beautiful beat. Wow. Perfect background for the message that Pace wants to get across.
I know the homie Foxn is really into these two, so this is for you homie.
Via NR.
Nice tuff beat by Marco Polo and I guess Sean Price tops it off at the end. To be honest I wasn`t too impressed by Talib Kweli since "Get By", but this is good stuff.
Rock on.

From the Madlib Medicine Show #11: Low Budget High Fi Music here is a track from Madlib & J Dilla from their never-realized second album. Jaylib was formed in 2002 as Madlib & Dilla recorded separately in Los Angeles and Detroit. Their one album, Champion Sound, was released in 2003. When J Dilla moved to Los Angeles, he, Madlib and J Rocc began doing shows together as Jaylib, performing together for the first time at the Madvillain record release party in April 2004. Madlib and Dilla collaborated primarily through the exchange of beat tapes, occasionally reworking each others material, or chopping the same beat in a kind of recorded call-and-response.
UPSIDE DOWN is a Fantastic song by NOMO & SHAWN LEE, available on 7", released by Ubiquity Records. Track is mellow, tender and full of charm. We need more of Elliot Bergman, Shawn Lee and Natalie. Thanks Ubiquity for peeping me that. More infos after the jump.
Since my trip to Ethiopia two years ago I fall in love with the music of the eastafrican region. Maybe because of the Broken Flowers ost or the collaboration of the Hellocentrics with Mulatu Astatke people came to recognise more and more the mystic beauty of that sound. House remixes of mulatu´s hits were released, Nas & Damian sampled Yegeelle Tezeta, OHNO made a whole album going through some ethiopian crates..
Today I wanna show you a favorite blog of mine which is an endless source for african music: awesometapesfromafrica
Brian Shimkovitz from Brooklyn who runs the blog seems to own tons of cassettes from the motherland and he is digitalizing them for our pleasure. You can find all sorts of music there - from cheap, trashy electro reggae to deep funk.
"This is music you won't easily find anywhere else—except, perhaps in its region of origin."
The one I picked out is a very mellow one. As someone mentioned in the comments it´s Asters first recording. Incredible hypnotizing.. Download from awesometapesfromafrica and make shure to check out some of the other posts. But be careful to not get lost in these crates..
Since the 1.st time i heard about Grup Ses Beats i got really addcited. This music makes me high, the oriental influence is deeply embedded to my live because of my experience in my childhood at the middle east. Ersengalaktik is a Remix (2005) of the Beastie Boys classic "Intergalactic" and a beat drill for your speakers. iYi
Hey, it's Emay here once more and I'm extremely excited to finally release this project entitled Mind Altering Dynamics. This was actually originally supposed to be an EP, but than I ended up adding a couple additional tracks that I felt completed the project and it ended up being a small LP. I greatly appreciate all the support I've been receiving and I hope 2011 is a great year for everyone. I'm still planning to release my album based on sampling Slowdive and also some more Seeing Suge material with Star Slinger and Blackbird Blackbird for this year.
Here are the latest visuals of Talibs Lead Single of his new Album "Gutter Rainbows" coming out Jan 25th. Khyris produced a nice raw synthizised Beat and Talib spitting heat. Im curious bout the album.
The group East Coast Avengers was created in 2008 by MCs Esoteric, trademarc and DJ/producer DC The MIDI Alien. Having dealt with almost 8 politically corrupt years of the Bush regime, the three banded together and the result was the controversial yet socially aware ‘Prison Planet’ album full of gritty production and razor sharp lyricism. The lead single and video, “Kill Bill O’Reilly” sparked a national outrage, getting the group’s visuals banned from myspace and youtube and even gaining them notoriety on Keith Olberman’s “Countdown” on MSNBC.
East Coast Avengers own DC the Midi Alien presents his Producer Album (?!?) "Avengers Airwaves" hitting stores in Feb. 15th. "Man made Ways" featuring Vinnie PAZ, Slaine, Sabac Red and Trademarc is the lead Single.
