‘Hip Hop Love’ is the latest single from Hamilton, Canada native, Changer Music. A devotional homage to the glorious culture of hip hop and the positive influence in his personal evolution,
‘Hip Hop Love’ is a boombapstic anthem, it’s catchy, it’s vibrant, capturing an essence of nostalgia but with a modern vibe in sound. The bars are fun, serious and tight. The sound is head-nodding, rhythmic and funky with Changer rapping, producing and engineering the track from start to finish.

9th Prince aka Mad Man, best known for constructing Killarmy, one of Wu Tang Clan’s first and most successful offspring affiliate groups has re-emerged with a new video titled “Madman’s Revenge”, which leads the push for his new EP of the same name. This EP is also noteworthy, being the first ever project entirely produced by 9th Prince.
The title track/video is wrapped in a theme of horror as the Mad Man (9th Prince) collects random victims while sporting a Michael Myers mask and spitting bars of terror with every breath. Check it here…
9th has always been a creative architect, picking out and shaping 4th Disciple’s production for Killarmy along with being responsible for the military theme that carved their unique identity that proved to be successful, selling hundreds of thousands of records in the late 90’s and early 2000’s and their debut release also nearly reaching gold status.
For 9th’s return, the Killarmy general decided to get behind the boards and add production to his skill set. “Madman’s Revenge” EP is a 7-song project that features Kool Keith,Trife Diesel, JoJo Pellegrino, Solomon Childs and Prodigal Sunn (Sunz Of Man) and is entirely produced by 9th Prince.

The History of Gangster Rap – From Schoolly D to Kendrick Lamar, the Rise of a Great American Art Form by Soren Baker.
In the mid-1980s, Gangster Rap didn’t have a name; but virtually everyone who heard it realized its potency. Artists like Schoolly D, Ice-T, Boogie Down Productions, Eazy-E, and N.W.A had created a new style of Rap, one that contained graphic, x-rated stories of violence, drugs, and sex and served as first-person street reporting that recounted the violence ravaging Black, urban America at the time. From still-swirling conspiracy theories about the murders of Biggie and Tupac to the release of the 2015 film Straight Outta Compton, this era of Gangster Rap continues to fascinate music junkies and remain at the forefront of pop culture. The History of Gangster Rap is a deep dive into this compelling phenomenon from one of its most noted documenters, journalist Soren Baker.
“Respect to Soren Baker for documenting the history of Gangster Rap in these pages.” – Ice-T
Sixteen detailed chapters, organized chronologically, examine the evolution of Gangster Rap, its main players, and the culture that created this revolutionary music. With a critical eye and insider’s perspective, Baker covers all the most important singles, albums, and projects, and reveals how their music led to the next generation of artists and the evolution of the genre. Filled with interviews with key players such as Snoop Dogg, Ice-T, and dozens more, as well as sidebars, breakout bios of notorious characters, lists, charts, and more, the book hones in on the story of the music itself. The History of Gangster Rap is the essential book that contextualizes the importance of Gangster Rap as a cultural phenomenon.
“History has so often been written by the victors that you very rarely ever get the real story behind anything. So it’s really important to hear from the people that were there which is exactly what Soren Baker shares in this book.” – The D.O.C

On the lead single off his upcoming album, ‘Grimey Life’, Queensbridge legend Big Twins embraces the scary season with the snarling “Phantom of the Opera” produced by The Alchemist.
The NY rapper and Cali producer have teamed up a number of times over the years, and each collaboration solidifies the fact that they’re only getting better with time. This latest joint venture is anchored by Alc’s chilling instrumental that, yes, features organs reminiscent of the musical of the same name.
This is just a taster of what’s to come. In addition to ;Grimey Life’ featuring the late Prodigy, Havoc, Knxwledge & More dropping mid November, Twins and Alc are hard at work on a joint album that’s due out next year.
