A nice collaborative effort from Lessondary Crew member, Jermiside and producer Jonathan Lowell. The project is a ten track album, and have a good mix of Westcoast and Midwest vibes to it, which gives it an interesting edge. I’m not sure if that was intentional, but that’s what I got from it when initially listening to it, and I can only say it compliments the album as a whole. It’ll be ideal when the weather starts to brighten up a little more, and we can all stop wearing 3 or 4 layers of clothing.

For fans of Fashawn, early Atmosphere, and Murs.

This beat tape’s a little different than a few of the others we’ve recently hyped to you. LoVEE is a beat tape completely dedicated to Lord Faz’s late, great best friend, Virginie “Vee One” Malet . Whilst there are some moments of real sadness and mourning (especially ‘Feel Good Now’ and ‘Love’) in the beats and instrumentation, there’s also a real celebration of life as well, which I’m sure Virginie “Vee One” Malet would have been proud of.
This is only a short offering at 7 songs long, but a solid beat tape nonetheless.

In the words of Faz “This beat tape is a tribute to Virginie “Vee One” Malet
(February 7th, 1974 – March 30th, 2011) who was my Love, my best friend, my partner in crime, one of the most talented journalist in the Hip Hop shit and music, the smartest and most loving woman I met in my life, and the only human being who ever understood me and knew me as no other.”
