Yasiin Gaye – “B Stands For Beef” (Soul Mates Tribute)
Word to the wise, my ‘digger’… Don’t sleep on these Yasiin Gaye releases.

Boooo… RIAA. Could call it hate. Not beef though.
“Beef don’t come with a radio edit.” First leak from Yasiin Gaye – The Return (Side Two).

Amerigo Gazaway – ‘Fela Soul’ (Video)
What do you get when you put together afrobeat legend Fela Kuti and rap pioneers De La Soul? You get Fela Soul; a musical tapestry created by Gummy Soul artist Amerigo Gazaway. More than just a clever title, Fela Soul is an 8-track, 33 minute journey into the world of afrobeat rhythms, funky horn riffs, and classic hip-hop gems.
