Millennium Jazz music presents ‘The Dots’ LP. This album is the result of Koncise and MoSik actually getting together to write and record the album in the studio and then spending the last year or so polishing it up and fine tuning it into this gem we have before us. The duo also brought in Ayo Odia during these sessions to record Sax on ‘Cinnamon’ ‘Trippin’ and ‘Bodied’.

MoSik & Koncise – Trippin’ (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

The album is described to have a kind of Ying & Yang element to it as it reflects the light and the dark, with side A of the record being the light and side B being dark, more trippy and spaced out due to the state of mind these artists were in at the time.

Production wise ‘The Dots’ LP proudly struts it’s stuff with that golden sound of Hip Hop with elements of Jazz, Soul and chopped breaks laced with some funky flows and wordplay.

Brother Ali – ‘Sensitive’ #VIDEO #DL @BrotherAli @rhymesayers

New music and accompanying visual from Brother Ali as he drops the introspective joint ‘Sensitive’.

Talking about the track Brother Ali says “‘Sensitive’ deals with the reality that artists are often times faced with self doubt and a deep sense that the world isn’t hearing us as we’d like to be heard. This one was made at a time when I’d taken too long to release new music, had medical trouble with my voice and felt like I’d alienated fans with my political statements. Typical ‘tortured artist’ vibe that not many people talk about in Hip-Hop, but we all experience it on one level or another.”

Limited, Hand-numbered 7″ vinyl and shirts available here: https://bit.ly/SensitiveFE

Over the past 17 years, Brother Ali has earned wide critical acclaim for his deeply personal, socially conscious and inspiring brand of Hip-Hop. Under Rhymesayers Entertainment, he’s unleashed a series of lauded projects, establishing himself as one of the most respected independent voices in music.

His latest album, ‘All the Beauty in This Whole Life’, represented the newest and most refined chapter of his life’s journey. “Each of my albums are the result of the pain, growth and eventual healing that I experience,” Ali said. “Articulating the pain and navigating the healing allows the people who really feel my music to travel with me. It’s not only that we hurt together, we heal together as well.”

This year, Brother Ali’s critically acclaimed debut album on Rhymesayers Entertainment, ‘Shadows on the Sun’, celebrates its 15th anniversary. To commemorate this occasion, Brother Ali will embark on a special 13-date headlining tour where he will perform the monumental album in its entirety each night.

‘The Shadows on the Sun’ 15-Year Anniversary Tour kicks off November 1st in Washington D.C., with stops in New York, Minneapolis, Austin, Los Angeles, and more. http://bit.ly/ShadowsTour15

Mic Handz & Sean Price – ‘Alive EP’ #AUDIO #DL @therealmichandz @seanprice @DeepConcepts

He may no longer be with us but we still keep getting blessed with unheard verses from the late great Sean Price, as we do again here with this two track release alongside Mic Handz out today.

Back In 2012, Brooklyn emcees Mic Handz and Sean Price discussed creating an epic project titled “The EP: The Epic Phail.” One Day out of the blue, Sean called Mic and said “Come get me, I feel Rappy.” Once at the Carnegie Deli Studio in NYC, Mic played Sean the instrumental for what would become their initial collaboration, “Stay Givin It up”. After Sean laid his verse, he told Mic “Dont rap…you can lay yours later, play another beat” and he proceeded to lay his bars for “Conceit” & “Alive”.

Some time had past since Sean and Mic had recorded and the fate of Epic Phail was still unknown. Mic finally received a text from Sean ” Im not ignoring you, I just have a few things going on…just send the beats”. That last communication took place August 6th 2015. Sean went on to pass away on August 8th.

Def Squad acknowledges the absolute fact that Sean Price is one of the greatest MCs to ever touch a microphone. He truly blessed the Hip Hop culture with his talent and his character. It is Def Squad honor to release unreleased footage of Sean Price with the blessing of his wife Bernadette and featuring a multi faceted and extremely talented Mic Handz.

‘Refuse2Kill’ by Lowkey was commissioned by Roundhouse with the brief for him to create a song and film about the anti-war movement in Britain during WW1. Check out the thought provoking track and visual as Lowkey tells us about those who stuck to their principles and morals and reject conformity by refusing to kill.
