Now, now I can’t stop posting South West UK artists if they keep sending us stuff. Sorry guys but my side is representing nicely, don’t get jealous. Stix is from the South East we can balance it out.
Inspectah Deck has released another teaser from his highly anticipated album ‘Czarface’ which was dropped a few days ago. If you haven’t picked it up already, that’s alright. Maybe you need a bit of a push in the right direction? The album has features from Ghostface, Action Bronson, Mr. Muthafuckin’ eXquire, Roc Marciano, Vinnie Paz, Cappadonna, as well as additional beats from DJ Premier & Oh No. Basically there’s at least two people on this record that most people are big fans of anyway.
Personally I’m a huge fan of 7L and Esoteric after hearing them on the Army Of The Pharaohs albums, so when I heard they teamed up with Inspectah Deck I knew the record would be gold.
Here’s a few more convincing words though.
(Just look at that album artwork. Don’t tell me that isn’t the coolest fucking cover you’ve seen in years)
YES! More South West hip-hop making a big name for themselves.
A pretty introspective track from Proverbz, love this song and you should too.
Detroit locals, The Regiment have teamed up with Rhymesayers and Soul Tools artist, Toki Wright to release ‘The Solution’ for the grand total of nothing. The track’s produced by Nick Speed, and it’s an instant banger, but as always no one believes anyone anymore so I guess you’ll just have spend that extra 1 second and have a listen for yourself.
Murdoc and Calligraphist are both on high levels when it comes to lyrical flow, and they style works really well with Jesper Olsson & Linus Engdah instrumentals and production on ‘Charades’. If you’re a fan of Tonedeff, then I think you’ll be a fan of these dudes too.
Love these dudes, they could write a song about anything and make it sound good. Although in this case, the subject matter of this song is anything but boring. Stereo Boyz have released a track about one of my favourite things in the whole world, I don’t know what Stix would say though ha. Ten points if you guess what the song’s about just from reading the name. This is off the upcoming album “Carz, Clubz & Theaterz” (out May 7th 2013).

You can also download the single “Contraband” produced by 7th Dan for free here over at Bandcamp now.
Milwaukee-based MC, Klassik has spit a really tight song over a Daft Punk beat ‘Something About Us’. I’m not a big fan of Daft Punk, but Klassik’s vocal style and flow gave this song new life. It remind me of Maverick Sabre a lot.
You can stream/buy or download the track from Soundcloud. If you like it, then buy the track and support your scene.
Cappadonna has released another track from his fourthcoming double CD, ‘Eyrth, Wynd & Fyre’ which will be out on the 26th of February. Until then, check ‘Real Life’ out to tide you over ’til the album is released in a few days time.
