A week or two back at Frontier Bar, I had the pleasure of meeting Be EL Be. I didn’t know much about him, but he seemed like a cool cat. Today, I came across a video of his, and I’m glad that I know this cat. Check it out, share it with your people, and help my man get some shine, because if anyone deserves it, he does.

Ready for the holidays? Bird Peterson is, and he’s doing his part to get you in the mood as well… The Bird Peterson Holiday Spectacular is a MUST HAVE MIX, and with it being a free download, is there really any reason not to have it? Get it, share it with friends, and enjoy… according to Bird, it’s “what all the cool kids are talking about”.

More than likely, if you’ve been to an Austin area hip-hop show in the past 5-8 years, you’ve seen the artwork or been in the presence of the incomparable Marc Mofoz. Mofoz probably has his finger on the local pulse more so than any other artist in the central Texas area. While surfing Facebook, I found a pair of video recommendations from Mofoz that are worth sharing with all of you… enjoy these videos from The League of Extraordinary G’z (RIP Esbe the 6th St. Bully) and Phranchyze 1.

My main man Tone Maintain from The Locksmiths is always good for keeping me up to date on the madness that his camp creates. The latest newness is from the Boston based crew known as Grey Sky Appeal… check it out:
The crew’s new EP is also available for free… Hunt & Gather features guest appearances by Qwel, C-Rayz Walz and more, and is just as on point as the music video above… cop that.

Here’s a new mix… straight from last Monday’s DoomsdayMonday at Triple Crown. Lots of instrumental gems on this one, with a few new and old songs sprinkled among them. I feel this set is strong enough to represent me as more than a mere live mix. Listen, share, download and enjoy! Free for all, donations are gladly accepted.

Everybody knows that my main man NickNack stays on the grind. Be it live shows, new albums, or running his online company Gigacrate, Nick is always up to something.
Nick also has created a handful of videos for his recent release “Dearly Departed”, a downtempo gem. Take a peek at the product:

A word on the project:
LoRaiLs = Lo Phi vs. Dee RaiL.
One Producer. One Rapper. One Time for your MF’n mind.
The album itself is a collection of songs created between 2005-2009. The bulk of the tracks you will hear while listening were planned to go on Chronic & RaiLs Pt.2 (an album that never came out). Luckily Lo-RaiLs has finally arrived to bring these lost songs purpose. Enjoy!
