Salford, Manchester battle rapper & Mosh Team representative Briggzy release his latest body of work in the form of ‘The Heisenberg Effect’.
With the recent success of the MoshWeekly series and the announcement of his return to the battle stage on October 11th for Don’t Flop Entertainment’s Manchester event MCR vs LDN where he will face off against the London based and undefeated Bamalam, Briggzy is only showing us why he’s remained so consistent throughout the years within the Manchester music scene by dropping a 17 track mixtape to add to his already extensive back catalogue.
‘The Heisenberg Effect’ features a bunch of popular faces if you’ve been a fan of his since selling music on Market Street was the done thing. Mosh Team members Shotty Horroh, Illatant Collins & D’Lyfa Reilly all bless the tape, along with Kris Evans (Aka Youngsta) & Jay Beatz who are both members for Britians Got Talent Finalists The Mend. Young Salfordian Demz who was apart of Misfit Music also shows us why he’s one of the most promicing young artists in the city with his verse and hook on the track “Whisky Glass” & finally Australian rapper The Kid, also shows us exactly what the country across the pond can offer in terms of hip-hop music.
The best part about the release is its completely FREE. So there is no reason to not give it a download and enjoy some Manchester/Salford Hip-hop.
Saigon drops another leak off the upcoming ;GSNT3: The Troubled Times of Brian Carenard’ this time calling out the history of rap with features from Memphis Bleek, Lil Bibby, and the legendary Kool G Rap.
Today, Allhiphop.com premiered the new video (and title track), “The Problem,” from 7evenThirty’s recently released album The Problem.
“The Problem” was written prior to Ferguson and edited during the peak of protests in Missouri and speaks to the continuing problem facing so many American communities even in 2014 “F*ck is these police on/theme song must be who shot ya/playing victim what you want a Oscar/grant me a pass Mr. Officer/I’m face down in the mainstream why you pull the trigger to my back/the problem is that the problem ain’t rap/can you help me articulate that.”
“The Problem” is SP1200 Jedi Gensu Dean’s first foray into live instrumentation and he sets a perfect canvas for 7evenThirty to espouse on police brutality, stand your ground, gentrification and mainstream media’s coverage of Hip-Hop; turning “The Problem” into a news crawl of current events “And they claiming stand your ground/when you ain’t never had no ground/to stand on/ cause the place you call home they can come and tear that down/and quick to put some nice shit and raise the prices and make it where you can’t afford/they wanna make it like they discovered your shit/ain’t that some hoe shit boy.”
