Zedo was a name I had not heard of previously to him hitting me up on Twitter. Here we have a dope 14 track mixtape ‘Coffeeshop’ from the Bedford, UK rapper. Lacing dope beats with lyricism and wordplay. You won’t find no bragging, just straight hip hop and storytelling from Zedo.

I’m really digging this on this damp and dreary Saturday morning, however don’t take my word for it, take a listen for yourselves and download the mixtape for FREE. With videos to come you will definitely be hearing and seeing more from Zedo here on HHL&T

Incase you don’t know already, DJ Pings is the founder of one of the dopest independent Hip-Hop labels to emerge from the UK, King Underground Records. This mini mix is the first in a series, hopefully of many, and gives you a little taste of the music that Pings is into and the vibe that he represents through the label.

“Originally I was just going to do these mini mixes for myself for some iPod action, but then I thought it might be nice to post them up via Dephect. The idea is that each mix will fit into the next, so it’s like an ongoing project. All very simple, not really about skills, just dope music, hip hop and breaks.”

The transition between local act and international fame is what most artists vie for, but few actually accomplish. While most rappers decide to stay in their lane and refrain from traveling outside of their comfort zone, Nutso and Sadat X prefer to throw caution to the wind and take their talents worldwide. With both emcees having a history of collaborating with European producers, “No Limit,” finds the Wild Cowboy, Sadat X, and the Q-Borough spitter, Nutso, connecting with the Swedish duo, Terminal Five.

The track sticks to Nut’s rugged n’ raw style of spitting flames over a hardbody beat, while Sadat adds his trademark, unorthodox, yet technical flow, allowing heads both old and new to get down on this transatlantic banger. “No Limit” is now available for download through iTunes, and all other major digital retailers.
