Five HipHop Remixes, one house Remix of well known tracks. 3x Erykah Badu, Mobb Deep, Grap luva & Street Smarts getting a nice but rather unspectacular new outfit. Good to greet the first shafts of sunlight coming through the cloudy berlin sky though..
Kokane is one of the West Coast's chief architects, from his rise as a solo-artist on Eazy-E's Ruthless Records and Snoop Dogg's Dogghouse Records, to his work with Above The Law and his countless guest appearances (Kokane is the most featured artist in the world---do the research) as his voice has been featured on over 35 million record sales over the course of his storied career (there is a reason they call him the hook master). From Dre, Snoop, Ice Cube, 50 Cent, Jadakiss, Eazy-E, Xzibit, Spice 1, Too Short, George Clinton, Boosty Collins, NWA, Young Buck etc, Kokane has lent his vocals to some of Hip-Hop's most acclaimed projects.You know the voice, now get ready to know Kokane (again)! Armed with a new LP, Gimme All Mine, which will drop on 6-1-10 (on his own Bud E Boy Records in conjunction with Bonzi/Fontana) Kokane is back and sounding better then ever.
"Kenny Keys" & "MC Adad" dropping the new "Eulorhytmics" Album "Green St. & Avers" on April 13th via Allnaturalhiphop.Many years passed where both members focused their Solo Projects,for example the upcoming "Adad" Album with "Exile".More about that project in that video interview -> (Taco Town Interview with Mc Adad & Exile)."Hot n Nasty" is the first Preview from the New Album and it make us confident.(Thx. 2 Moovmnt.com

Lateef Dameer: When I had first heard Exhibit C, I knew that it was going to be one of those songs that would capture and inspire imaginations for years to come. The one thing that has always intrigued me about Jay Electronica, are the stories of his travels. This EP is a reflection of those journeys, each remix is based around a theme from Jay's life. Magnolia stems from his origins and beginnings in New Orleans, Nirvana (Limbo) is based around his nomadic travels, and Dreams is representative of his lifelong dreams becoming a reality. Exhibit C is available on itunes, support good and honest music.
Amazing Mini E.P. by Lateef Dameer with Remixes of Jay Electronica,talking about his journeys.5 Tracks with Intro and Outro is a bit too little, but Magnolia & Nirvana are so impressive to me with that convenience let me vibe on that tracks.Good Work Lateef!
In 2008, Eternia began recording her sophomore album with MoSS (a fellow Canadian), two years later the LP is complete and the title of the album says it all: "AT LAST!" Going where instinct took them, Eternia and MoSS’ collaborative union manifested into a sonically consistent album inspired by classic, boom-bap rap records. "AT LAST" is entirely produced by MoSS (DJ Premier's production partner) and features appearances by some of Hip-hop’s elite: Joell Ortiz, Termanology, Reef The Lost Cauze, Tona, Maestro Fresh Wes, Rage, Rah Digga & Jean Grae. Eternia is at her finest over MoSS’ production, offering raw, confidant & vulnerable first-person perspectives over gritty and moving soundscapes. "AT LAST" promises to resonate in a musical arena where most rap albums fail to deliver beyond a ring-tone single.
This is more than DOPE!Eternia drops her Lines Stronger,Ruffer and Sharper than many Boys in that Game!Eternia + MoSS + Joell Ortiz are the ACME of DOPENESS!

Mythology of the Metropolis is the highly anticipated third album from Zack Wright, AKA Deceptikon , debuting this month on Daly City Records. Easily his most ambitious work to date, the genre-hopping, bass-heavy epic is equally suited for the home stereo and dance floor alike. Monstrous analog basslines, mangled vocals, vocoded samples, and thumping drums coalesce to form yet-unnamed genres. Just call it exquisitely designed, innovative music.Created primarily while Wright was living in Japan, the album is described as an extended love letter to the city of Tokyo. Over three years in the making, it features such diverse guest artists as He Can Jog , Copy , Oly , and Vincent Parker.
We know that we*re a Blog especially for Rap Music,but for all:we dont have anklets and we are open minded for any sounds that makes life better.yihaa.So show some LOVE 2 our Friends from Daly City Records and push that Mini Mix loud.If you like it buy it HERE!.Now I gonna go to get some Drinks with my Homie Spiderman!

Devin the Dude is the real "DUDE" himself.You know I'm sayin.8 Months ago we have been at an concert of him in Praha @HHK and maybe you cant imagine, but it was one of the best Live Performances we've ever seen.The public was captured by a big cloud of weed smoke and that "DUDE" shared his chill factor and raised a big party demolition in the calmest way you can figure.Between the Line-Up of Ruff Hiphop Heads like "Coka Nostra" or "Method Man","Devin the Dude" ignites a special way of Hip Hop celebration!BigUp Dude!This Leak is not that we estimated,but good enough to post and share that memories.!Ded.2.hoff&jones!

you might have recognized- I´m a huge fan of that guy called DIMLITE. From time to time I check his site for updates ..so, the newest update is that his ep is going to be out soon.. (..again):( after some "stranger than usual" -tracks that we could hear on some compilations or 7"s- the snipet for the ep seems to be auspicious. it sounds more like songs again, not just (beautiful) noise.. So visit his site and check it out..
