Photo: Timothy Saccenti It takes a while to get used to Killer Mike singing, but then it becomes quite a catchy hook.Beautiful production and a beautiful photo. Don`t you think?

Audio: Styles P - Sellouts feat. Bully // Mp3

We love Styles P. Here he comes with a new one produced by Statik Selektah who knows how to chop a drum loop. Rappers don`t have time for Hooks nowadays. Why?
Cool.

Audio: Nickelus F - What Am I Supposed To Do // Mp3

We posted the coolest songs of Season Premiere a while back.
Let me be clear. I am a little dissapointed here. This is the second to last song of the tape and the only song (except Agressive Content and Fall back) that is a little more inspiring than the rest. If you wanna check for your self than get it right here.

Audio: Ghostpoet - The Sound Of Strangers EP // 1.June.2010

New Stuff from London Label "Brownswood-Recordings" (Gilles Peterson).Ghostpoet is a talented Singer and Poet like his name also depicts.Instrumentals are innovative and laid-back.Strong 4 Track E.P.:Take a listen and you'll do right!I cant tell you much about "Ghostpoet" (apart from the fact that he is part of "Gilles' Top 10 Breakout Artists of the Year")so i used his description i found on his myspace!

The sound and texture of my new work has been bubbling away for a little while now..i think i'm getting closer & clooooser. Just been made redundant so more time to plan my life, make this music work and enjoy the little things in life cause that's all i got right now (and happy with my lot : ). Still devouring rich tea biscuits now with jam on top mmmmm.Music is my pacemaker, my conscience and my compass...all i want to do is create pieces to musically touch people...please spread the word and enjoy.

Fuck The Music For Once (Politics)

Now I haven`t done this before. Please forgive me. I seriously thought about posting the new Tabi Bonney or Royce Da 5`9`` Mixtape, but I just don`t feel like it. You will find them at your other favorite rap-blog for shure.
What really disturbs me today is that the Isreali Defence Forces killed god knows how many peace activists last night and nobody is saying shit. What the fuck?!
What`s the difference between a Terrorist Organization and the fucking IDF,or better any fuckin army in the world!?
God only knows what will happen next.
For now I want to send my condolences to all the families who lost somebody in this conflict.
Stop this madness.
Go and make yourself heard.

Audio: Geutz - Taugenichts // prod. by Lucky Loop

Wenn es um Doitschrap geht bin ich ja immer wieder der Meinung das die Würzburger Szene stark unterbewertet blieb.Wahrscheinlich betrifft das so einige Orte in Good Ol' G. wo guter Rap sich im Sande verläuft weil er den gefragten Hip Hop Atttitüden im Jahre 2010 nicht entspricht.Nicht das es bei "Geutz" so passiert ist,im gegenteil,er hat sich nach erfolgreich veröffentlichter Single "Taugenichts" unter Rap.de Records (2001) und dem ausgelösten Rummel um seine Person einfach aus dem Hip Hop Zirkus zurück gezogen.Jammerschade auf der einen Seite,ein Beweis starker Persönlichkeit auf der anderen.
Der schöne Beat kommt von einem der bekanntesten Würzburger Produzenten "Lucky Loop" (auch hier Lucky Loop),früher auch "Diverse Pole",der sich jedoch mittlerweile vielseitig auslebt,von Dipset (Franky Kubrick,weiß nciht mehr wie der Song hiess/ouch/RMX glaub ich) über Raggae und Produktionen für Tall Mc (Gangsterrap?kann sein,kenn mich nicht aus/hehe). Ein talentierter Producer ist er allemal,aber ich wünsche mir mehr von dem alten Zeug.Noch ein Tip am Rande von den Würzburger Sicksteez die in der Stadt immer noch guten Rap hoch halten.-> Sicksteez - Ruhig bleiben!Bis baldigst!

Audio: Stalley (MadStalley) - The Autobiography // Mixtape

Stalley - Worldwide feat. Mickey Factz:


Download: Stalley (MadStalley) - The Autobiography - Mixtape

"Stalley" is an established Rapper in the NY Scene and he is on the run!The "Pressure" (produced by Michael Sterling Eaton) Song was an argument to keep an eye on him.Now he dropeed his Mixtape "The Autobiography" with some kool joints like "Worldwide feat. Mickey Factz" you see above.Not only the intelligent Rapparts and his smooth flow made me content,the intrumentals are dope too and full of nice jazzy samples.A good quality Mixtape you can grab for free!See you again!

This year’s Red Bull Big Tune LA event went down at The El Rey Theatre and it was cracking. 12 producers came out to duke it out for a spot in the National Championship, which goes down in Chicago in November. DJ Premier and Nottz also came thru to rock the crowd with their extensive catalogs of classics.

Dibia$e and Captain hitting the Spot.Both are totally dope and rocking the crowd.
That Beat Competitions are nice for the Producer scene to represent their Skillz in a 1 Man Show.Beat Bombs!I want more of that Events,hopefully in germany,because i missed the Beat Barbecue with Suff Daddy and friends.Looking Forward!

Audio: Skooda Chose - Polo Rugby feat. Chip Tha Ripper // Mp3

Skipping through my Itunes I found this right here. I know often these songs are a couple of days old, but then most of you wouldn`t even know. Skooda Chose got my attention with the song from the video above which I have been playing a lot since it came out..and well no disrespecting nobody, but sometimes the image material you find of these rappers is very slim and nothing that would pretty up the blog at all, so I guess a video works just fine. Produced by Chuck Inglish featuring Chip Tha Ripper. Cheeahh

Audio: Chikamaranga - Trill feat. Co$$ // Mp3

It`s been said that the guy who runs Tres Records (Taarach, Blu, New Jack Hustle...) is a also a dope producer by the name of Chikamaranga. Well I don`t know about you, but when I look at the cover it says a T. Johnson produced this track. Could it be that this is the same Johnson from JohnsonandJohnson (Blu and Mainframe) with his Alter Ego?
Anyways cool song.
