What’s also dope is that they made this album FREE for you all. Yes artists do care. Just remember to support in other ways too. Get some love and show some too.

Yay Area! Bass up high.

DJ MR. E – SADE VS. BADU PT.3 – THE FINAL CHAPTER

The one and only Papalote champion Mr. E drops his final tribute to two inspirational women in music. Really, I don’t think I need to say anything else. Besides being such a dope DJ he’s not too bad at cooking up a mean burrito. Heck he beat Bobby Flay in a Throwdown. Get it via Mixcrate and hit up his other mixes on his page.

VINROC – BEAT FREAKS [VINSTRUMENTALS]

Beat Freaks is a hodge podge of production work from the mind of Dj Vinroc. A collection of a simplistic collage of samples reinterpreted through a drum machine, Vinroc’s influences and experience can be easily seen as that of a true fan of Hip Hop. A compilation of pre released, unheard, and never released tracks, Beat Freaks is intended for the true beat aficionado who can appreciate the grit, simplicity, and beauty of Hip hop music.

THE SCHITT YOU’VE YET TO STEP IN

I am blessed. Blessed to be friends with some of the illest MoFo’s in the beat game. From West Covina’s finest DERT, toThe Dirty District/L.A. transplant House Shoes, to my My good friend here Teeko of 4OneFunk (ode to the 415 area). Teeko is a musical gangsta with imaginative ingenuity that boggles my toggles every time he plays me some new schitt. He believes in the build up of a track as opposed to the avereage mother fucker who just loops some schitt and calls it a day. The following is a track that I have been beggin him for since he played it for me months ago. It is from his upcoming solo album (TITLE TBD) & it is my SCHITT!!! I cant put it on this month’s NKD (dropping this Fri…HOLLERATION) due to it being not in its final state (the recording of the album is still in progress), thus, I cant just give you some schitt that aint done/out yet ya dig? Werd up! But you can come to this post, right here, on this site, and press play down below, anytime you want! I love this damn song so much I did all this because I just wanted to share the freshness with you all.
