Square Biz :: Deuce Malone Drops Science And Drops Names In Latest Vlog Post

Posted on May 25, 2021 | Leave a comment

One of the best aspects of being a native Austinite and growing up in the central Texas area is the wealth of creative and highly driven individuals that populate the area. One of my long-standing friends and creative collaborators, Deuce Malone of The World of Deuce online, clearly mirrors that sentiment, as he is known for sharing posts all across social media sharing the secrets behind his rise into an industry position that suits him well. After a recent spotlight in Voyage Austin, Deuce decided to immediately pay it forward (and in some ways, pay it back) by dropping a video on his self-titled YouTube channel called How I Got a Job in Radio that breaks down the importance of not only creating a network of like-minded individuals, but how key it is to maintain that network as well as just how easy it can be to create one if your intentions are correct. If you’re looking for business tips, entertainment insight or sincere motivation, then subscribe to Deuce Malone on YouTube, but regardless, check out this video and make those key adjustments in your life!

Austin-based rapper, singer and songwriter Anastasia Hera has been gearing up for the release of the recently dropped This Is Anastasia, a slight redefinition and recalibration for the already heavily motivated artist. Her lead single, Big Tuna, serves as a quick reminder or update to those familiar with her, and a very up-front introduction to those discovering her for the first time. If you dig what you’re hearing on the single, then head on over to AnastasiaHera.com for the complete album as well as more news and media.

Divine Mathematics :: Mad1ne & Henry Kool Mckool Drop ‘The Equation’ Single And Video

Posted on May 21, 2021 | Leave a comment

You know how it goes… Mad1ne joints get instant props around these parts. His latest collaboration with producers Henry Kool Mckool and The Fall, the horn-driven and catchy The Equation (plus the little bonus bars at the end) is the exact high-quality hip-hop we’ve come to know, love and expect from the San Antonio wordsmith. Give this one a bunch of watches this weekend, leave a like and a comment, and spread the word about it!

Hard Selling :: Andrew Mbaruk & Th’ Mole Unleash ‘Papier-Mâché Chalet’

Posted on May 20, 2021 | Leave a comment

From the digital desk of Andrew Mbaruk & Th’ Mole :

“Papier-Mâché Chalet is not for everyone. It’s not for most. It supposes an audience familiar with literary modernism and postmodernism, approaching its topics as Gertrude Stein approaches objects, food and rooms in Tender Buttons. So, it’s probably not for you.

Following hundreds (possibly thousands) of self-published songs and a dozen books, poet Andrew Mbaruk, in collaboration with composer Th’ Mole, presents Papier-Mâché Chalet as a kind of sonic effigy – it’s a record of who he was at the time of its recording, and a record you’ll likely love to hate.

Despite disinterest upon disdain, the Weird Rap label continues to herald Mbaruk (previously known as Lil Ghostwriter) as a post-post-postmodern literary genius and considers Papier-Mâché Chalet a masterpiece of high art rap.

In partnership, Audio Recon, Weird Rap, and the artists humbly unveil Papier-Mâché Chalet this May the 19th without regard for acceptance, much less popularity.

But that is a lie. In truth, our hearts contain a dim hope for a small, appreciative audience. For those few disposed listeners, if they exist at all, Papier-Mâché Chalet awaits.”

With such a rousing endorsement from the creators, why not take the plunge?

Rejuvenation Raps :: Tee-Double Returns To Form With ‘Local Transplant (REworked,REbuilt,REbirth)’

Posted on May 19, 2021 | Leave a comment

It’s no secret that Austin legend and Kinetic Entertainment mogul Tee-Double is the type of creative cat that lives and breathes hip-hop, so it’s no surprise that after a run through health complications and a set of successful surgeries, Tee-Double is right back at it preparing an album rollout. For Local Transplant (REworked,REbuilt,REbirth), Tee-Double sticks to some familiar topics (such as hip-hop culture, DIY motivation and thinking for the future rather than the now) while invigorating his rhymes with a sense of urgency fueled by recent current events, and a sonic palette that continues bang harder and get more refined as the years go by. I definitely recommend streaming this album and sharing it with others, but most importantly (especially in this case), if you can financially support by copping a copy, do so, as all proceeds go towards the post-kidney transplant care and treatment of the man behind the music.

Awakening Sleepers :: Babelfishh Drops “Coma Worthy” Project

Posted on May 18, 2021 | Leave a comment

babelfishh has never been a stranger to breaking conventions and pushing the boundaries of creation, and he continues these sonic practices with coma worthy, his latest release. Rather than me fumble around for the right words, I think I’ll let babelfishh speak on the project :

“The second outing on Divergent Series, babelfishh‘s multidiscipline approach to everything real and unreal is actualized here – an uneasy gauntlet that runs through an unlucky 13 tracks combining chewing, junkyard blackened samples and fragment skull cleatings – ready for tooth pulling and leg bone mangling. Wet blanket enthusiasts keep your distance. 667!

For those that care, this album took an exceedingly long time to complete due to living in an off grid cabin that is still without solar for now.
That in conjunction with doing a fair amount of rambling around and/or living out of the truck.
With that being stated, this album was written mostly on the road and then recorded in: people’s guestrooms, backyard shakes, garages, trailers, rehearsal spaces, an occasional hotel room and eventually finished up in what used to be a commercial kitchen. These songs bleed as intended and spoil as predicted. A celebration of nothing.”

Straight dopeness. If you’re in to having your brain scrambled, dig this one and dig it good.

Critical Acclaim :: Darko The Super And Weird Rap Present The ‘Bonafide Rap Weirdo’ Short Film

Posted on May 17, 2021 | Leave a comment

From the digital desk of Weird Rap :

“The film that won the coveted Golden Space Doo Doo Pistol at the annual Weird Rap awards for best short film or variety show, Bonafide Rap Weirdo, directed by David Lynch. Okay, not David Lynch, but we wish he did, that’d be cool and much better. Instead it’s Drako? Darko? Whatever, just watch it.

Starring Darko The Super, with performances by Homeboy Sandman, Donovan Days, Harvey Cliff, Torito, Hot Talent Buffet, Godzilla, King Kong, and my girlfriend’s grandpa as Poppy. Featuring Alora Eisen from the off-broadway hit Frankie and the Amazing Zircon Encrusted Tweezers.

Edited by cool guy Bryan “Mister” Lackner, music by BLKrKRT, Alien Trilogy, Darko The Super, Saxsquatch & Bridge Band.”

Definitely check it out, because it’s super dope. Leave a like, comment your favorite part, and make everyone you love (or even remotely like) watch it.

High Fashion :: Maikéru And Poolboi Blu Stop By Rooftop Takes For A ‘Prada’ Performance

Posted on May 14, 2021 | Leave a comment

The homie poolboi blu recently introduced me to Maikéru, a young and ambitious R&B performer (at the risk of minimalizing his talent) with an eccentric flair (at the risk of minimalizing his style). Maikéru definitely seemed down to Earth, but after meeting him, I started to notice clips of his popping up on the timeline. A week or so ago, poolboi blu let me know that he and Maikéru were stopping by the Austin-based Rooftop Takes to perform Maikéru‘s latest single Prada, a song about opposites attracting in the best ways possible. Check out the performance, leave a like and a comment if you dig it, share it around, and then seek out more music from poolboi blu and Maikéru.

Giving Props :: Looking Back At EVAK

Posted on May 13, 2021 | Leave a comment

Recently, the homie EVAK responded to an Instagram post of mine, and just seeing his name again reminded me of how ill his music was. That’s why I’m making this post, so you can know how dope he is too… if you’re into raw, forward-thinking, innovative, brain-bending hip-hop, you’re welcome in advance.
