R&B/Soul: Corey ‘Latif’ Williams – “Philadelphia Healing” EP
April 26, 2012
While searching around the web as I usually do I ran across this soulfully dope “Philadelphia Healing” EP from Philadelphia singer & songwriter Corey “Latif” Williams. Assuming he was a newcomer to the game initially, I was pleasantly surprised to find some great gems on this new project. Upon further research I discovered the Philly artist was mentored by the late great Teddy Pendergrass & was once signed to Motown records by Kedar Massenberg under the stage name “Latif”. Instantly I had one of those “Ohhhhhhh now I remember” moments as I began to put it all together in my head. Check out his website at Hurltheworld.com. Peep the tracklisting plus a few key tracks I’m digging from his 5 track EP where you can also download the complete free project below. It’s great to see another artist continuing to make me proud to be from Philadelphia. If you like good soul I’m positive you won’t be disappointed…

Mansions On The Moon – “Lightyears” EP
February 15, 2012
One of my favorite bands I enjoy to listen to that seamlessly manages to incorporate a variety of sounds that makes you feel as if you’re traveling to distant worlds, without question, is ‘Mansions On The Moon’. The former Atlanta based trio just dropped their latest “Lightyears” EP & this time around it’s executive produced by Pharrell. The project is not a free project as it is up for sale on itunes but you can listen to tracks off the album below…
R&B/Alternative: Tawiah – Run (EP)
December 19, 2011
British soul singer Tawiah has been the background for many other names in the business for some time now, but she’s slowly creeping out & getting her just due recognition for her talent. The young singer spent a significant time touring the world working as a background vocalist in Mark Ronson’s band in addition to delivering background vocals for Corinne Bailey Rae & sometimes filling in for the late great Amy Winehouse. Having gained significant cosigns & recognition for her voice from artists such as Cee-Lo Green, Mary J. Blige, & Lily Allen, it wasn’t long before she signed a new deal with Warner Bros records. Tawiah is undoubtedly stepping out from the background with her new 5 song EP entitled “Run” that serves up as an appetizer before her first full length project is to drop sometime in 2012. This new EP is her second self-financed project since the one she dropped in February of last year called “In Jodi’s Bedroom”. Check out the title track from the EP below plus one of my favorite joints from her which is a remix to “Breakaway” off of her soundcloud page. Check out her new video for “Little Drummer Boy” that also appears on the new EP under the hood….

Cali Carma – Tired Of Rap (Album)
December 17, 2011
Atlanta based emcee Cali Carma drops this new mixtape called “Tired Of Rap” which showcases his ability to show off his ill lyricism, but it also highlights the fact that he’s a bonafide star once he gets the proper spotlight. Most artists can be pigeonholed into one or two types of styles in much the same way a “Conscious” rap artist wouldn’t get airplay in the club & a “Trap rapper” wouldn’t get play from real hip hop enthusiasts & purists. Cali Carma’s “Tired Of Rap” project shows that Cali can navigate various styles within hip hop without it coming off forced, wack, or devoid of creative lyricism. Most of us can get tired of rap, but if more cats like Cali Carma are in the game it would be a lot better. Key bangers off of this joint are “NFL”, “Tired Of Rap”, “Hear Me Out”, “Half Empty”, “Good Love”, “E.D.E.N.”, “Hear Me Now”, & few others I plan to eventually play on my radio show & on my ipod regularly. This is a dope project. You can preview listen to the album before you download it over at DATPIFF. Complete tracklisting after the jump…..

Soul Khan – “Hold On” (Video)
December 17, 2011
I first saw Soul Khan perform for the first time at the A3C festival back in October & he impressed me during his set. I believe he also won over some new fans who may not even been aware of him initially. I did a video interview with him directed by the homie Rick Foy of Dvid films that I believe he’s chopping up with the editing that should eventually make it’s way to the web soon. Check out this new funny video just in time for the holidays for “Hold On” off of Soul Khan’s “Pursuance” EP. Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas Muthaph*ckazzzzzz!
R&B/Jazz: Freddie Joachim – Patiently EP
December 15, 2011
I’ve been letting this new Freddie Joachim EP “Patiently” run a few times today while working. It’s a dope 5 song EP of soulful & jazzy instrumentals that serve as a nice appetizer to his next project “Fiberglass Kisses” due early 2012 on Mellow Orange Music. Freddie Joachim released this project late November & is donating proceeds from the sale of the EP to charity for the holidays. Check out some snippets from the project below or just go on ahead & download the full songs from his page. No singers or rap artists needed for this joint right here. Trust me you won’t be disappointed. I’ll be giving this EP significant spins until his next project drops. Until then we’ll be “Patiently” waiting for it…
R&B/Soul: Dezaray Dawn – “B-Tween The Lines”
December 6, 2011
Futuristic soul artist & Atlanta resident Dezaray Dawn’s music often feels like you’re traveling the world without physically moving anywhere. This may have been a subconscious effort in crafting her own sonic DNA since she was born in Germany & has lived in a multitude of cities in the U.S. & around the world before eventually settling here in Atlanta at the age of 16. Her musical roots apparently run even deeper as she is also the cousin of soul singer Anthony David, Shawn Stockman of Boyz II Men, & Tiny who is the current wife of rap artist T.I. & former singer with the all girl group Xscape. Dezaray’s time as a DJ in a few clubs spinning progressive soul & other influences may have also helped shape her sound as well. Dezaray let loose this joint “B-Tween The Lines” for the fans, but those of you trying to catch up to her talents should peep her Deep EP produced by Marc Mac. The joint “Sail Away” is a joint I’ve had on repeat several times too…

Stacy Barthe – “Never Did” (Video)
December 6, 2011
Songwriter Stacy Barthe is largely known behind the scenes for penning some great songs for Rihanna & numerous artists in the music business. Not surprisingly the songs she wrote for Rihanna were the only one’s I dug from Rihanna the most. Now Stacy Barthe is stepping out from behind the scenes of her Surf Club writing team to focus on her own singing talents in releasing this new video for “Never Did” off of her “Sincerely Yours, Stacy Barthe” EP. Personally I would like to see her have a creative video for “Without You” featuring Frank Ocean or “The Only One” which are my personal favorites from her EP. But after watching this video she maybe doing just that in setting up all the songs in parts like a short film of sorts…
Mobb Deep – “Conquer”
November 11, 2011
Diggin’ this joint “Conquer” off of Mobb Deep’s upcoming “Black Cocaine” EP that’s dropping on Black Friday. Black Cocaine is not their official album but it is a quick EP or teaser if you will before the major full length album drops in 2012. For now the real M.O.B.B. fans can pre-order the Black Cocaine EP now in itunes…

Cocaine 80s – Ghost Lady (EP)
October 21, 2011
Cocaine 80s dropped their collaborative self-titled EP earlier this year & surprisingly they drop this brand new EP entitled “Ghost Lady” today. Cocaine 80s, is a singer, songwriter, & production collective, consisting of producer NO I.D., James Fauntleroy, Kevin Randolph, Rob Kinelski, Steve Wyreman, & songtimes Common. A.E.I.O.U….and sometimes Y. (Rimshot). Well you get the picture even if the joke didn’t come off right the music does. I’ve had this particular song called “Six” featuring Common on repeat since I’ve heard it. Straight dopeness. Check out a few key tracks & download the full project below.
Aleon Craft – Craft Singles (EP)
July 19, 2011
Decatur’s finest Aleon Craft drops these 8 piece singles from his new free EP. Aleon Craft had leaked one of the singles from the project on the web called “Broken Paradise” featuring Mansions On The Moon which I really like, but before I could get that single track up & posted the whole EP drops via 2DopeBoyz. Well I guess that works out perfectly because it saves me an extra step….check the complete tracklisting under the hood.

Moonsatellite – Strange Dimensions
July 11, 2011
This one is a little different but still dope. More alternative Flying Lotus type stuff. I’m digging it. The homie Moonsatellite sent this over saying its “a chronicle of inspired insomnia.” You can definitely pick that up from the 70s style futuristic sounds and off pattern grooves. Here is my favorite joint from the project. More from the project after the jump…
