A few weeks ago B-Girl Document did a short but pretty interesting with Menace the co-creator of Conspiracy Worldwide Radio and co-host of ‘The Friday Night Live Show which broadcasts on Friday nights. Conspiracy Worldwide Radio has included radio radio shows in its schedule from the likes of Jeru The Damaja, K-Murdock (Panacea), DJ Lord Jazz (Lords Of The Underground), Reef The Lost Cause and many other hip hop luminaries. Basically, they’re cool cats.
Menace also writes for Welsh graffiti magazine “The Hard Copy“. He’s promised me an interview that will blow everyone’s minds, but until that check the one he did with B-Girl.

Mornin’. Bruv it’s my day off and I’ve been up since 9, doing what? I’m really not sure. Either way, I woke up to this is our inbox. A free mixtape from Stealth MC, ‘Stealth Artois Vol 1’. It feels like a pretty young entry, but has plenty of potential, the beats are pretty varied and I’ve caught myself singing along to them already. Stealth’s got a nice vocal flow and I’d like to see where he goes from here. Track 4 ‘Stella Fright Night’ is a gem, and both the production and Stealth’s flow really shine on this one. Hoohoo two Bristol rappers in one day. South West Blessed!

After generating significant attention with his own “A Vintage State of Mind” Mixtape, Fokis steps behind the scenes to release Stryfe.
Stryfe is a witty lyricist from Detroit who is able to communicate real life issues through clever wordplay. With the first single “SHELLS” a dynamic and energetic, yet gritty song that represents everyday life of the ghetto. Upon completing his forthcoming LP, “The Last Resort”, Stryfe teamed up with fellow Detroit native CYDI’s BreadWinner to release an EP, “The Opening Act,” which will serve as the prelude to his debut LP.
Fokis said about Stryfe “I am very excited to have Stryfe be a part of the Loyalty Digital Corp Roster, I think he is a dope artist with a lot of character and skill. I believe in his talent and feel he is going to be a really big artist.”
