HIATUS KAIYOTE-TAWK TOMAHAWK
The Blind I staff has a knack for finding gems, and we really thrive during the discovery process. This morning, my friend sent me this Tawk Tomahawk project from Hiatus Kaiyote. They’re a band based in Australia. It feels very Little Dragon-esque at points and channels Amy Winhouse and Janelle Monae at others. The artwork made me curious. The first song hooked me. And the whole thing was truly a pleasure to listen to. Hell, I even paid for it (which is so easy not to do these days). I’m very intrigued to learn more about the group, but I’m 100% certain Blind I faithfuls will dig it. Partake!

KNXWLEDGE-KARMA.LOOPS PT.1
Good Friday. Good music! Blind I favorite Knxwledge just dropped a new project called Karma.Loops.prt.1. And anytime you see the word “loops” you know what to expect from the beats (plus Knx. never disappoints, right)? As the great J. Dilla and many other producers have exhibited, the looping samples can make for some really amazing beats! If you copped each project he was releasing back to back last year, you should have a nice little collection by now. So add this to the mix and enjoy. Or as we say round here, partake.

SEVEN DAVIS JR. – LO-FI VINTAGE + PLANET SUPERSTAR (THE STORY OF SAM SEVEN)
In the words of Daniel Bryan… “YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!” I personally have been waiting on some vintage Sam Seven & some New New of Seven Davis Jr. Confused? I’ll explain. Sam Davis Jr. (Sammy Davis Jr. nigga?! WHAT!?) was once Sam Seven. Went into hibernation for a stint then resurfaced with a brand new/old sound that took the heavyweights by storm & since then has been killin it under his new moniker Seven Davis Jr. He produces, writes, sings, raps all his own schitt & the final result is a space Odyssey unplugged from the system & all you need to do is listen. Today & forever we offer you 2 projects: Planet Superstar (The Story Of Sam Seven) & the new new Lo-Fi Vintage. Peep, cop, share, repost, tell a friend, repeat.

PHEO-THEY SOULECTION EP
Although he’s been making music for quite some time, Pheo is relatively new on my radar. But I trust Moovmnt’s judgment, so when I saw it on their site I knew They Soulection EP would be worth listening to. After a few minutes into the Moreno Valley emcee’s project, you’ll realize that he can rap (well). Production from the likes of AFTA-1 and El Truento complements his lyrics about topics ranging from love and the youth to drugs and struggle. Even the intro in the beginning and the random interludes of women talking throughout the EP might catch you off guard, but you know they’re carefully placed to prove a point. It grabs your attention early and it’ll keep your speakers on cruise control until the end. Enjoy.
