Idiomz ft. J-Hakeem – ‘The Gemini Effect’ (Prod @GodzG) #AUDIO #DL @Idiomz

Thegeminieffectremix

“The Gemini Effect” is the first single from Idiomz’s remix album with UK based beatmaker GodzG. GodzG meticulously attacked the acapellas from The Gemini Effect and gave the project an uplift. This single features J-Hakeem and a video for the single is already done.

The Gemini Effect was conceived as a call and response whereas cunning is pitted with intellect to both expose and dispel the propaganda tool commonly referred to as the Gemini effect. J. Hakeem represents the cunning with his skillful use of word play and alternate meaning while Idiomz represents intellect crafting metaphorical references for enlightenment. In a musical landscape where it seems lyrics and meaning are being “dumbed down”, The Gemini Effect is deliberate in that once you have listened, you pretty much have no other choice but to ponder its intent.

Mr Bigz brings us the new single ‘Soul Food’ from his upcoming EP

Featuring the vocal talents of Max Marshall, who starred on Matrix & Futurebound’s UK Top 10 hit Control earlier this year, ‘Soul Food’ was premiered by Charlie Sloth on his BBC Radio 1 & 1Xtra Saturday night simulcast. The single is taken from Mr Bigz’s ‘S.U.M.M.E.R.’ EP, which is available to pre-order on iTunes NOW ahead of its August 31st release.

The feel-good track, produced by Para Beats, is the official follow-up single to The Ride, which featured Giggs and sat proudly on the BBC 1Xtra playlist for several weeks. Both songs share the soulful sound that the artist formerly known as Bigz has become known for, following a 9-stone weight loss that inspired the smoother Mr Bigz persona and musical influence first seen with last year’s acclaimed mixtape My Funked Up Soul.

The response to The Ride single earlier this year, a remix to the mixtape version, spawned the idea of the S.U.M.M.E.R. EP, with the official project to feature more of Mr Bigz’s first-class flows with classic samples and big hooks. Check out the track list below:

S. Let It Go               featuring Sonny Reeves

U. Just A Little Bit     featuring Dora Martin

M. Starlight               featuring J. Warner

M. Finer Taste           featuring Wretch 32

E. The Ride               featuring Giggs and J. Warner

R. Soul Food             featuring Max Marshall

S.U.M.M.E.R. EP OUT AUGUST 31st

thebreed

It’s hard to pin-point THE BREED’s starting point with exact precision, what’s easier to do is predict their destination with 100% accuracy. On a journey certain to be riddled with successful en route milestones, New York City’s newest collective of rhyme- Sayers & hook-makers set off towards success riding out to their own theme music, Last Of A Dying Breed.

NYC’s cultivated cult – THE BREED come as a complete package, five rappers (Detroit Red, Jr Berlin, Ruthless, Vor and 1st lady, Kimmy IV) – names that have been steadily buzzing around underground forums and college radio thanks to their growing cult-like followers. Now together, THE BREED combine to deliver their 10-track debut opus in the form of… Last of A Dying Breed.

Essential Listening comes in the form of : “Bermuda Triangle” “Fuckin Up The Cyph (Smokerslude)” “Red’s Rum 2” “Paranoid” “Bounce Dat Ass” and “Breed”.
