Some good old fashioned raw rap straight from LoEG’z member Domincan Jay. Tons of dope production, solid guest bars, and truth coming straight the man of the hour on his debut album Reality Rap. Definitely worth your time and support.

Mirage‘s journey through 2016 of bringing us the audio-visual project #TheAmeliorationCollection has been a wonderful journey to witness. They Wrong (Bruh) marks my second involvement in the editing process, and this song is straight up hot flames. Arson Optics comes through with a banger on production, and Mirage drops knowledage the only way he knows how. Highly recommended viewing.

The homegirl KB the Boo Bonic has been making tracks lately. Catching flights, playing shows far away from home, and genuinely taking the steps needed to grow the KB brand. The latest visual/audio collaboration with The Moon Guys, I Want That, is an expression of these latest experiences, and hope that the travels and experiences continue to come with greater abundance. Another solid win for KB the Boo Bonic.

Ben ‘McNasty’ Buck and Ruler Why have been in the studio putting in work on what is sure to be a dope debut album. Between Ruler‘s production and McNasty‘s verbal/beatboxing prowess, I’d expect nothing but the freshest creations. Steak Sauce is a warning shot for what I imagine will be the megablast coming in the near future.

Pretend Agenda artist Kilmatik has always been one of the more unique and adventurous MCs in the Austin scene. The Kool Keith influence is undeniable, and this project takes it one step further. Kilmatik rhymes under the name Petey Pastel on this one, with production duties handled by Battle Axe Records alumni and legend Moka Only. DJ Bless 1ne handles his business on the cuts, and a handful of guest artists round out this wonderful experience of an album. I’m a little late to the party on reporting this one, but better late than never.

One of the best parts of curating a blog is coming across stuff you may not otherwise have crossed paths with. I am not very familiar with TrillAlumniDJ to be honest, but I know style when I see style, and the video for NEW DOPE has all kinds of style oozing out of it. Dope beat, solid lyrics and a unique visual take all have me interested to hear more. I’ll certainly be keeping an eye out.

The homeboys Moodie Black never have been ones to shy away from giving it to you raw. The latest single and video, V a n o w e n, featuring the guest vocals of Pierre Mottron, is almost like stumbling upon an old video tape in a drawer in an attic that shifts your entire perspective. Dope on the visual front, intriguing musically and lyrically, and an all around brain-scrambler of an experience. Worth your time, worth your shares, and worth your support.

In keeping with the pattern of big things happening for Austin music this month, the hometown hero crew of MDK (Mindz of a Different Kind) have connected with hip-hop legends Myka9 and Abstract Rude to bring the video treatment into reality on the single For All. Production by Blueprint as well? You already know. Classic.

Attic Ted has never been one to shy away from hitting listeners/viewers with an onslaught to the senses. Next Time hits all of the right buttons. A wonderful duet between two of Attic Ted‘s personalities accompany several of the personalities putting on a show for the YouTube faithful, with a guest appearance by Furly thrown in for good measure. Very Laff-In. Another Jeffrey Garcia masterpiece. Share it and share it good.

The funk is back, and better than ever. Henry + the Invisibles has been putting in all kinds of work the last few years in terms of spreading the legend, and after some time spent preparing a new album, us lucky listeners are getting a taste of what’s in store. WHOA is a nice field of smoothness with a nice solid breakbeat behind it. Henry uses this as a platform to explore those feelings that you can’t control, and even manages to throw many referential nods in the midst of this confessional. Super dope, and I can only imagine how this track comes off live. Musaic sounds like it will hit us in all the right ways upon its release.
