Qwazaar
and Batsauce bring in the New Year with an ephemeral masterpiece
entitled "Love Liez." Under the direction of Arvid Wuensch, Qwa and Bat
serenade Berlin's Underground with a song that is at once dark and
somber, divine and liberating. Qwazaar solidifies his reputation as a
virtuoso, continually evolving over the dusty yet innovative sounds of
Batsauce. Their Stress Chasers EP drops on January 28.
"It said tonight the moon we
see it/ will be falling from the sky/and there's nothing left to do but
watch it dim, let it die/eat the worm, love the lie"

Download: TYPICAL CATS - Reflections From The Porch
As Chicago winds up
another long, hot summer, plagued by violence and riddled with tragedy,
Typical Cats lob in another time bomb, a Qwa solo slab entitled
"Reflections from the Porch." Anchored by a Natural beat awash in
harmonies, bittersweet guitar, and, as always, dust-covered knocking
drums, "Reflections" is a two and a half minute masterwork, a miniature
history, and a meditative moment from one of the premier MCs of his
generation. Described by Hip Hop Renaissance man Kevin Beacham as "one
of the best natural Rappers of this era," Qwa is in excellent form here,
leaning back into the stories, sipping from a jarful of memory.
