DJ FRANCHISE-THE REINTRO (PART 1)

DJ Franchise came at this mixtape with a dope approach. Like many of us,  he was fortunate enough to become a hip-hop fan in the Golden Era where the rawest of the raw was coming out. Now he’s witnessed the common debate about whether or not the new rappers are any good  and comparing them to the vets. To highlight the talent in the new school, he put together this mix. Dope! Hit the skip for tracklisting.

VIDEO: 1982 (TERMANOLOGY & STATIK SELEKTAH) – YOU SHOULD GO HOME (F/ BUN B & MASSPIKE MILES)

Prior to watching this video (of which the lovely miss Gia Marie put me on, she gets mad pretty well on the rooftop scene! Ha!) I had no idea Statik Selektah and Termanology had formed a group! This song + video for “You Should Go Home” (iTunes) is very dope though, and with a feature from Bun B the Trill OG himself it’s bound to get some extra looks.

RUBYHORNET PRESENTS CLOSED SESSIONS VOL. 1

Now this is a stellar project. The good homies at RubyHornet, in conjunction with Chicago-based Soundscape Recordings, brought together producers and artists to formulate a great original project. The EP was recorded entirely in Chicago, IL at SoundScape Studios with visiting as well as local artists. Pretty much, when an artist came to Chicago, they brought them to SoundScape, made them comfortable, gave them access to the production catalog and just got out of their way.  The EP features artists such as Bun B, Kidz In The Hall, Emilio Rojas, GLC, Truck North, Big Pooh, Skyzoo, Rhymefest, Chip Tha Ripper, Hollywood Holt, Million $ Mano, U-N-I, Amanda Diva, Tanya Morgan, Curren$y and more.

Yep, heavy hitters. You’re gonna be even more impressed once you indulge. Check out my FAVORITE shit off the project, “Fresh Academy” featuring Kidz In The Hall, Chip The Ripper, Donnis, and Mikkey Halsted.
