Following a batch of recent bookings spinning 7″ records at Mobile Mondays & Wax Wednesdays in NYC, for renowned hip hop 45s label Dusty Donuts in Hamburg and support slots for Peanut Butter Wolf, Breakbeat Lou & Bobbito, London-based UK DMC champion DJ Matman releases his third all-vinyl 45s mixtape : DJ Matman – 7″ Mix Vol.3.
A fast-paced mix of Hip Hop and Funk breaks, laced with a little Dancehall and even some D’n’B, Matman tightly mixes, scratches and juggles his way through his 45s collection, often linking tracks together with clever use of wordplay between songs.
The cover art features photos of (almost) every record played, in the order they appear in the mix, get a better look HERE.

Yonkers, NY native Sean D. Jacobs, better known as Sheek Louch, has been a significant presence in the rap game for decades. Sheek started rhyming at a young age under the influence of friend Jadakiss, and along with Styles P, the three went on to form The LOX. After being ‘discovered’ by the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul, Mary J. Blige, the trio went on to sign with Sean Comb’s Bad Boy Records where they released their 1998 platinum record, Money, Power, & Respect, (#3 Billboard 200). After contributing to hits like “It’s All About The Benjamins”, the group later parted ways with Bad Boy and went on to release 2000’s We Are The Streets (#2 Rap/#5 Billboard 200) through DMX’s Ruff Ryders Records. The trio also appeared on numerous hits including Mase’s “24 Hrs. to Live”, and Mariah Carey’s “Honey”. With his Lox Partners, Sheek eventually began working on D-Block records – a label founded by three rappers with its own studio and its own agenda.
‘Silverback Gorilla 2’ will be Sheek’s first album via Tommy Boy Entertainment (Ghostface Killah, Method Man) in stores worldwide on 12-4-2015. The album features the grit and grime that Sheek and Lox fans know and love and features verses from friends and touring cohorts Jadakiss, Styles P, Ghostface Killah, Fabolous, Pusha T, Swizz Beatz, A$AP Ferg and Raheem DeVaughn among others. In addition to recent performances at the 2015 BET Awards in honor of Bad Boy’s 20th Anniversary, Radio City Music Hall with The LOX, Hot 97 Summer Jams, Sheek Louch and Ghostface Killah will be on tour throughout the winter and Sheek will be touring Europe with The LOX in December http://www.songkick.com/artists/117895-lox/calendar.
With three already well-received tracks from the project, including “Bang Bang” f/ Pusha T which was premiered by The Fader, “What’s On Your Mind” featuring his LOX brethren Jadakiss and A$AP Ferg which was exclusively premiered by Complex, and the XXL premiered “I Luv It” featuring Ghostface Killah.
Today, Sheek returns with the Swizz Beatz assisted “What You Want The Money For” which was premiered by DJ Enuff.

It has been two years since Brooklyn rapper Mic Handz has released a project! The wait is over after “The Prelude” officially dropped earlier this month!
Although this is not an album, this project does speak volumes for itself. Mic Handz has enlisted barbarian support from notable emcees like Ruste Juxx, Rockness Monsta, Sadat X, Tragedy khadafi, Innocent?, Dready Kruger, General Steele, (The late great) Sean Price and more.
The production has been handled by the international arsenal of beat makers such as Dichter 2 Productions, Cool FD, Aarron “Freedom” Lyles, Lyve 1-OH and Ozee. This is THE PRELUDE to what is coming! This is the personal playlist and travel log bumping in the headphones of Mic Handz! Remember in the words of Handz himself, “It’s never me it’s always them”!
