That good stuff that you’d expect to hear from Verb-T and High Focus Records.

Now I know we don’t normally post hip-hop life this, and I have to be honest the production and instrumentation is something that would immediately turn me off, but the lyrical content is pretty tight, and you really can’t deny his heart and skill as an MC. Take a little chance, plus I know you all secretly listen to shitty music that not only has bad production but awful lyrics too (we all do), so at least this has the lyrical diversity and skiled rapper to balance it out.
So basically yeah, I really am too cool for school because hey I knew about 810 before we were even contacted by his producer Tuelv. This means since we all have an amazing music taste over here at HHLAT, then guess what? This is track is awesome. Aside from that little ego-outburst, 810 is a really hardworking, sincere and generally good rapper from Baltimore. Support this dude, and support Tuelv. For fans of Trek Life, Fashawn.

Right now, just posted hot off the internet presses is LATE. If you’re not aware of him then you need to school yourself. Bboy writer, all city tagger. CALICO steps up in this track too. 100% independent, and 100% backed.
Really feeling this track by J The Exodus; also I’m always a sucker for MCs with long names so that always helps. Came across J The Exodus today but it’s obvious from the first time you listen that his style is really mature and his content is really well versed, and thought out. It takes a certain performer to be able teach an audience without appearing condescending, and I think J does this very well. We’ll definitely be supporting him in all his latest releases, and I strongly recommend you check him out as well.

If you’re feeling him and you live in the South East of the UK then get yourselves to his launch party in Hackney, London. Click this link to find out more about the show, and get tickets.
Straight from last night’s GOLDEN show in Bridge City held by B-iLLA/Park Street PR/Syndicate Promotions comes a fresh freestyle from Klashnekoff.
Sick flow, sick production.
So in between B-iLLA taking over the world, filling up our inbox with their youtube page updates, and releasing videos every three days they’re also giving shine to artists not ‘traditionally’ hip-hop. I hate that I had to say traditional but there are a lot of purists and/or crazies who won’t listen if it doesn’t 3/4 beat. They’ve been working with Alicia King on their Soul Sessions segment for their B-iLLA TV who you may know from previous DNB joints. She covers Beverley Craven, and I dig it. Check the B-iLLA TV for 60 second bars, freestyles and loads of MCs/groups and all that other good stuff.

For those of you who didn’t get on the free download of Ruthless’ new EP ‘Say Something’, well…Too bad you’ll just have to pay the £3 now. This is Ruthless’ at his highest, and it features in my humble opinions one of his best tracks, ‘Emotional Mess’ featuring Ruinz Ason. If you aren’t aware of who Ruthless is then I think it’s time you were, so get to clicking. For fans of B-iLLAH, A.C, Genesis Elijah, early Akala.
