Sirkri is a 18 years old french beatmaker. He hit me up with his latest productions. Sirkri Vs Fortilive as its name implies is a tribute to the Fortilive crew with Slo-Mo, Mushmouf and Illmind. Kool to see this young cats implicitly on the beats.

Video: OBX And Tech-Neek - Evening Comes (Prod. By Illmind)

I have to say I am not totally convinced about this beat, but OBX just brings that "grownmanrap" to the table, no extras and preservatives needed. Plus I really dig it when rappers take a theme which is implemented by the producer and make it a good story/song. Good video.
The Rage EP is coming soon.

Audio: Fortilive – Fist Fights (Prod By Illmind) // Mp3

After the first couple of bars I thought this doesn`t sound like Illmind on the boards, but then the cheesy strings come in and I already hear halfadollar dropping his 2 cents. This time it`s his crew Fortilive (Illmind, Mush-Mouf & Slo-Mo) on the rhymes. Way better than 50....haha
Good music.

Audio: Skyzoo And !llmind - Speakers On Blast // Mp3

Skyzoo & !llmind "Speakers On Blast" by duckdown
This actually one of those songs where you wish you could cut out a sample or change up the drums yourself... maybe they have those type of Mp3/ProjectFiles in the future...haha... fuck that sounds arrogant, uh? This song would be just perfect without that annoying sample. Don`t you think?

Audio: Fortilive - Ain`t Nobody Better Than Us (produced by Illmind) // MP3

Fortilive (Illmind, Mush-Mouf & Slo-Mo) leak a new song of their upcoming album. Illmind`s beats are fucking crazy. Always check him out. Even 50cent picked some of his beats....ehm? No seriously. This is fresh.
