17 years old Joey BADA$$and his Progressive Eragang catched my attention. Listening to JB reminds me of the young Shyheim. The good version of Panda masks and mummed adolescents. Make sure you digg his track "Waves" together
with Freddie Joachim. There are also 2 more tracks "Flowers" and "Negus" at his facebook page for free download. Enjoy the video after the jump (prod. by Creative Control). You bet!
If you need a wayward musical highlight for your well-deserved sunday, then play this compilation. Eclectic collection of beat-music. Not for the faint of heart. saludos. one for mogda.

Ok this might be an old hat to some of you, but when I saw this today I knew I had to share this with yall.
Super talented Nick Koenig got me buggin. By the way who are these relatively old doods celebrating along? Creative Control does it again. Wow.
The tape is free. Get it.
Shouts to Vita for this one.
The Spitta drops his Pilot Talk 2 release in november and here we got some nice video promo material produced by Quality Control.If you missed that Michael Knight leak, get it here, its tooo fresh.
I honestly was a bit dissapointed with Pilot Talk except songs like "Address" featuring Stalley, "Prioritize" and "King Kong", but this makes me hope for a better sequel.
The song is produced by none other than Ski Beatz and comes with that perfect stoner vibe that I want to hear the Spitta jump on.
Plus I love it when people "sample" old skool video material for a music video. Creative Control equals quality.
Director and New Orleans native BMike (2-Cent TV) was inspired to create the music video for Stalley's "Babblin" in remembrance of the devastation from Hurricane Katrina for the upcoming 5th anniversary (Aug. 29, 2010). "Babblin" (prod. by J. Rawls) is off Stalley's "Autobiography" project, which can be downloaded for free at http://stalley330.bandcamp.com/.
After some free Leaks,some Videos by Creative Control and a free Mixtape here you can take a look at Stalley's newest and good looking visuals in remembrance of the devastation from Hurricane Katrina.Stalley is one of the most talented Rookies in our opinion.If you dont know him or missed some releases,check the posts at our blog or read the interview we did with him.Keep your eyes on STALLEY.Thx. 2 Dan for all the support.
In this new episode of Stalley's "The Milq", Creative Control catches the Bruce Springsteen of rap getting freshened up with Jameel and DJ Steph Floss of the Eighty81 crew at Supreme Clientele in Cleveland.
30 minutes to shoot and 30 minutes to edit.Perfect.
Creative Control drops another one. After the release of Curren$y`s Pilot Talk his partner in Beats and Rhymes Nesby Phips launches this sweet Jet right here. Beats by Ski Beatz and Pete Rock.
Here is the Download.
Easy Peasy.
Im sure Curren$y's Pilot Talk (13.July) will be dope.Here you have the latest video leak "Roasted" featuring Trademark & Young Roddy.By the way: Creative Control visuals are sick!
If you scroll through our blog you have realized that we are huge fans of Stalley`s music. So when we had the chance to ask a couple of questions we immediatly said: let`s do it. Upmost respect to Stalley and Dan for making it happen.
# Please introduce yourself to everybody who doesn`t know about you yet?
Peace Germany, this is Stalley from Massillon, Ohio, 330. I’ve been rhyming for about 3 years now and live in New York City. I’m currently independent.
# We know that you originally come from a small place in Ohio, but then moved to New York. Did you feel like you had to move in order to push your career as a rapper or what was the reason for that?
Yea, basically. I originally came to NYC for school, but when I moved back home and saw how it was out there I knew I would have to move back to NYC to really get anywhere in the music industry.
# When was the first time that you thought that rap would be something you could live from? The first time I thought I could live from music was probably on July 14, 2009 when I dropped The Autobiography and performed at SOB’s in front of a sold-out crowd. That whole experience made me think I could really possibly do something with music.
# We also know that you are a big Madlib fan. What are your favorite three Madlib beats of all times?
The first three that come to mind are Fancy Clown from the MadVillain project, Distant Land from Shades of Blue and The Healer from Badu’s New Amerykah joint.
# How/when did you get in contact with Ski Beatz? Well I linked up with Creative Control for the video for “Autobiography” and once I was around DD172 it just happened naturally since Ski is always at the dojo workin’.
# We really like "Pressure" (produced by Micheal Sterling Eaton). Maybe you can tell us something about the way how you approach these songs? It seems like you are extremly serious about everything you say and stand for. Where does this seriousness originate from?
I grew up in a city where everything is hard and you have to work to get where you wanna be, so I take that and apply it to my music, especially when I’m drawing on those experiences. The beat also took me to a place where I was reminiscing about the hard times and the trials and tribulations that I’ve been through. I just wanted people to know that amidst all the pressure, you can overcome and find peace. In this case it was about me being from a small city and going somewhere with bright lights and just trying to get over that.
# Now tell us something about the "Address" video with Curren$y and Ski Beatz and the whole journey. It seems like you wrote the verse during the video shoot, because it fits just perfectly. How was the creative process for this project? I wrote and recorded the song in Jamaica and basically the verse just reflected everything I saw there. I just put myself in a Jamaica state of mind and focused on the sun, the trees and everything around me. I really wrote that at an exact moment and the lyrics just show how I felt right then. It just so happened that we shot the video there and it came out how exactly Jamaica felt to me.
# What will be next?
Right now, I’m working on finishing a project with a very dope producer named Rashad from the 3rd in Columbus, Ohio. We’re really gonna be taking my sound somewhere new and different. I’m also working on an entire project with Ski Beatz that should be incredible.
We posted some Leaks of the upcoming Release "24 Hour Karate School" by "Ski Beatz".Here is a funny prod. Track with "Rugz D Bewler".Entertaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaainment!!!Creative Control let all Listeners know what "Ski Beatz" is thinking maybe?yihaaaa:Ski Beatz shows you why he's the baddest of all time, with a fresh track off of the highly anticipated, 24 Hour Karate School mixtape. Accompanied by Harlem's own, Rugz D Bewler.
I know we dont post too many videos normally, but i really dig these creative control flics...they shot this in jamaika. the song is so layed back, almost horizontal. produced by ski beatz. 24 hour karate school dropping soon (cant wait for taxi ft. mos def) i know you can find the mp3 out there, but i dont think it is free...so if you like it find it...or wait and buy...as i said before support.
