Rap City Status :: D.O.S. Stays ‘Focused’

Loving this video from D.O.S.  The beat is by Ruler Why, so you already know it’s a banger.  The video feels like 1992, 1993 or so… right before Hype Williams took over the visual landscape.  Somewhere in the realm of the original Nas videos, or the comeback era Kool G Rap videos.  Either way, it’s dope, and there are some familiar faces (and masked faces) sprinkled throughout.

Puttin’ In Work :: ‘The Click-Clack Mixtape’ Hits The Streets

words from Click-Clack:

Enough talk.
I spent the month of July writing and recording this mixtape with some of my best friends. Big shout outs to Bradley Will of Holiday Mountain for mastering the project and to Javier Antonio Avellán for the artwork. Thank you to everyone who has supported this project and my progress leading up to it. I kindly ask that you donate ANYTHING, as I am releasing this project for free after spending nearly a grand on it’s release.
Without future ado:
THE CLICK-CLACK MIXTAPE

Supreme Minds Combined :: Mad One & Furthermore’s ‘Mathematics For Savages’

This album is a B A N G E R.  Mad One (lyricist) and Furthermore (beatsmith) really have something on their hands worth being proud of with Mathematics For Savages.  Musically, the production is consistent, and the album has a very steady flow to it.  All of the words spoken feel chosen, not just thrown out as placeholders on a sonic landscape.  The B-Hop guest features add the slightest bit of variety… a well balanced project overall.  Definitely worth your time and your money, and worth spreading the word about.

Deeper Exploration :: ‘Worth Something’ EP by AnnaLove x Cory Kendrix

After the successful testing of the waters with Wax On, AnnaLove and Cory Kendrix has unleashed the EP Worth Something.  It’s a bit of a new venture for both, but the collective middle ground is definitely worth everybody’s time and attention.  Hopefully, a full length will arrive in the future, and good things will come for both parties involved.  Download it, share it, and bang it daily.

Circular Creation :: ‘Pomegranate Series Season One Megamix’ by Hades


This is a MEGAMIX produced by HADES consisting of the Pomegranate Series season one episodes.

What is Pomegranate Series?
A short film is made. The audio from that short film is sampled and used to create the music. The MC is shown the video and gets 1 hour to write to it. When the hour is up the bars are promptly recorded and that becomes a Pomegranate Series SEED (or Episode)
