S.L.O. – Purple Onion.

S.L.O. is yet another permutation of Huntsville, Alabama rappers. It consists of ST 2 Lettaz, Bentley, S.L.A.S.H., and Kristmas. They take their sweet time on “Purple Onion,” slowly flaunting their international fan base over a haze of electric guitars. It’s almost a cliche to say it anymore, but HSV has..

Roc Marciano – Jet Luggage (ft. Gangrene).

The makers of the two best rap albums of 2010 are making an EP together. Gangrene plus Marcberg equals (wait for it) Greneberg. Drops July 19. Real artists don’t play the supergroup waiting game. I’m looking at you, Center Edge Territory. Sphere: Related Content

Bless This Stuff, Design.

First non-music post! I found this great website today called Bless This Stuff that covers fashion, technology, vehicles, design and more. This bike addition caught my eye as a rider who has had issues trying to cart things back and forth if I’m caught without my backpack. Check it..

Freddie Gibbs – Bad Attitude (ft. Str8 Slammin’ Click).

Now that Freddie Gibbs has firmly established himself, it’s time for him to put his boys on. Meet the Str8 Slammin’ Click, who you may remember from the DJ Burn One-produced “O.G.” They buttress Freddie’s raging verse with tolerable to decent verses. It’s a dope track, but I don’t think..

Apathy – Check to Check (produced by Evidence), Video.

White guys, blue collar raps, electric guitar licks. Apathy’s new single is a lot like Slaine’s cut with Statik Selektah from May. Honkey Kong drops August 23. Download the track below. Sphere: Related Content

Action Bronson – Brunch, Video.

Bronsolino’s “Brunch” should be more disturbing. In the video, he meticulously disposes of a woman’s corpse, but there’s a strange levity to it. Maybe it’s the sunny weather or pristine lake where he dumps the body. Maybe it’s Bronson’s demeanor — the big doughy rapper is more Galifianakis than Lecter...

Freddie Gibbs, Close to Discovering Atlantis.

It was my birthday, I was in Hawaii so I didn’t give a fuck. I was drinking Mai Tais and snorkeling, nigga. I put on that snorkeling gear and I instantly could swim. I was like, “What the fuck? I can breath underwater? Let’s go!” I was swimming with turtles,..

Math Hoffa – Double Barrel (ft. Method Man).

“Double Barrel” is militant New York rap with a boom bap core of scratches and cries of “Mic check, mic checka.” An appearance by Method Man is a cause for celebration because of his scarcity nowadays. His last was an unfortunate Omarion collab. Sphere: Related Content
