Never will I ever get tired of watching grimy, street level spitters, on some hand held cameras throwing up hard freestyle verses. I’d much rather watch kids rocking in a car park, than Souljah Boi prancing around in rented limos. Drifter, Little Dee & A2 kill it! Shouts to Link Up TV.

Today is the anniversary of the death of rapper and producer, Guru from the legendary Gang Starr. Guru was one of the most prolific and respected rappers of all time. Ask anyone who were some of the first groups and rappers they listened to when they first started getting into hip-hop, and chances are Gang Starr will come up. Although today is a sad day, let’s not mourn the death but celebrate the life of one of the most influential figures in hip-hop.
Rest in peace, Guru forever.

Now, now please don’t think this is out of laziness but sometimes when Tricksta sends us artists and music to check out, his write-up pretty much says all we want to say anyway. That was a disclaimer, but it’s very true. I will however say, another banger and another awesome artist to get excited about.
Meet producer King I Divine; synonymous with the MPC and the mastermind behind the ‘Flipped: Jodeci Edition’ beat tape, the ‘Crown Jewelz 1, 2 and 3’ series and the atmospheric themed ‘East 54th’ EP. Raised in Queens, N.Y but an ATL resident, King I Divine has been creating music since 2008. Arguably, his love affair with Hip Hop was birthed years before, considering that his early influences were RZA, DJ Premier, Pete Rock and the late J Dilla to name a few. With a growing, substantial Internet and worldwide following, his credits include producing for some known and upcoming acts.
Hosted by 2 DopeBoyz, his most acclaimed instalment to date, ‘Divine Scienze” is the feel-good, hard-hitting collaborative album with Brooklyn emcee Scienze, featuring several notable artists. Known for unique live performances accompanied by his APC 40 and a sound that honours a diverse range from soul and jazz music to authentic boom-bap Hip Hop, King I Divine plans to establish his legacy in delivering authentic and timeless music for all listeners.
Described as a treat for beat heads and music lovers alike, King I Divine has released the full thirteen instrumental tracks from the fan-favourite album, ‘Divine Scienze’. This is available exclusively for ONE month only!!!

A.C, Zuby, Mr Shaodow, Terra Slim, Daley Grinder, Genesis Elijah putting all this ‘unsigned rappers are terrorists’ nonsense down. If you’ve not seen the video, or the other ‘debates’ (and I use that word very loosely) then I suggest you take a look at the original video. It’s some completely nonsensical jibber jabber, and anyone who knows underground hip-hop, in fact any type of underground music regardless of genre will tell you the same. I’ve watched a few of other videos and apparently they’re meant to be ‘tastemakers’. Shiiiit my mum’s got more knowledge of hip-hop, give her a call she’ll fucking school you.
Just so you know it’s no fuckery, JumpoffUK’s got some sick stuff, and I’ve spent way too many hours watching their videos so please don’t think this is a diss to them because it’s really not. They showcase some amazing stuff and I’ve got nothing but love for them. It’s just these so-called taste makers, and ‘trend setters’ (I giggled a little just typing that) like Jasfly and LowkeyUHT and all those other raspberry spitters. In fact I’m glad JumpoffUSA put those cats on, it gives us all some interesting topics to discuss, and some uninformed dudes to chuckle at.
End of the day, just do you and if you love it chances are other people will as well. Send us your music, and we’ll get excited about it too. But definitely not Jasfly.

Best quote from this video: Terra Slim, “These are Fresh Prince of Bel-Air type people’. Hahaha! Check it for yourself.
This is the original. Straight laughable.
