Reluctant Power :: Jonas Wilson Reflects On ‘Ruling The World’

Posted on August 25, 2020 | Leave a comment

While some have delusional machinations of wealth, fame and influence, others are more than happy to just exist. Multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter Jonas Wilson falls on the latter half of those groups, and if he didn’t have an ‘I’m just happy to be here’ anthem before, he’s certainly got one now in the form of Ruling the World, the lead single off of his upcoming full length project Science Fiction Post Blues. The song is full of lo-fi charm, which creates the perfect bed for Jonas to share his simple but powerful composition on finding balance as a spoke in the wheel. If you’re looking for a laid back, reflective summer jam, you’re in luck, and your search is over. Check it out, support if you can, and share it around for others to experience!

Facing Facts :: Evolve And JonesGotMusic Connect For ‘Moving Target (Running)’

Posted on August 24, 2020 | Leave a comment

Evolve is a cat known for direct, hard hitting rhymes, but for the most part, his subject matter tends to be more on the meta-side… he is one of the few rappers that raps about rap without sounding cliche’ or trite. That being said, his latest collaboration with JonesGotMusic, a single titled Moving Target (Running), keeps the verbal wizardry alive while making the subject matter a bit more culturally relevant overall. With social upheaval and police reform on the edge of everyone’s tongue, Evolve spins a set of stories as old as time about minorities, members of the counterculture, and their all-too-often rocky relationship with authority figures. Check out the track, share it around if you dig it, and support if you can!

Monarch Flow :: MAD1ONE Drops ‘King Leo Green’ LP

Posted on August 19, 2020 | Leave a comment

As a 1980’s baby, the true-school era of 1990’s hip-hop will always hold a special place in my heart. It is this very respect and nostalgia that makes MAD1ONE one of my favorite Texas MCs, point blank period. Dude sounds like he was plucked directly from that era, and it doesn’t hurt that his go-to producer Ruler Why has a production style that echoes the very same era. For his latest project, King Leo Green, MAD1ONE employed Ruler Why and Kizer, along with a closing track by Furthermore, for production purposes, and guest verses by Jamar Equality, Blazy Green and Kizer help expand on the topics of royalty, power and earned respect. If you like quality hip-hop, you’re probably already aware of MAD1ONE, but if not, get hip, support the new project, and spread it around for the masses to do the same.

Motivated Mindstates :: Kydd Jones And The Teeta Connect For ‘Checks’

Posted on August 18, 2020 | Leave a comment

One should never doubt the self-motivation that Kydd Jones possesses. From the jump, Kydd set out to make a name for himself in the industry in as many ways as possible, and while some of it is for clout and respect, it’s undeniable that some of it is for the money as well. That’s why, with the help of The Teeta, Kydd Jones has dropped yet another banger in the form of Checks, a bit of self-validation for the pair of self-motivated individuals. The song has swagger for days, so definitely check it out, support if you dig it, and spread it around for as many people to enjoy as possible.

When it comes to hip-hop music with uplifting and positive vibes, one not need look any further than the Austin-based MC and poet Nicolas Azlon. On his latest project, Illumination, his signature positive attitude is on full display, as he flexes multiple modern styles over rich and textured production in order to assert messages of affirmation and inspiration.

Manifesto Blast :: Feral The Earthworm Keeps ‘Throwies’ Going With ‘Golden Arches’

Posted on August 14, 2020 | Leave a comment

In his never-ending quest to enlighten and entertain the open-minded section of the masses, Feral the Earthworm has dropped another chapter in his ongoing series of Throwies videos. With Golden Arches, however, Feral the Earthworm puts the didactic tactics on hold, instead opting to focus on more abstract points such as consumerism and self-respect. As he is not looking to lay out historical or logical context for this one, and instead stand his ground on personal beliefs, the energy is amped up, and the delivery is much more urgent, giving us a glimpse back to the days when Feral the Earthworm was a raw, uncut gem of an MC still finding ways to put his ideas together into the hard-hitting content he is known for today. Feral the Earthworm always gets props around here, so be sure to like and comment if you dig, and share it around for others to enjoy!
