Buckshot – “At Night” (3am Sh*t) [Prod. By 9th Wonder]

9th-wonderBrooklyn & North Kakalaka reconnect on this very dope ‘At Night’ joint that could have been just some ‘3am sh*t’ Buckshot & 9th Wonder put together at the last minute over a flipped Teddy P sample.  Look for more bangers like this on the “Jamla Is The Squad” album dropping tomorrow January 28th hosted by Statik Selektah.

LISTEN: TALIB KWELI, ELZHI, & PHONTE – NO COMPETITION (PROD. BY KHRYSIS)

Talib Kweli, Elzhi, & Phonte – “No Competition” (Prod. By Khrysis)

No-Competition-450x450You can’t go wrong with these four individuals all on one track. The superior lyricism of Phonte, Elzhi, & Talib Kweli coupled with an ill beat from Khrysis makes this joint nothing but strait fiyah.  I can’t wait to play this on my radio show Saturday night.  This brand new banger is off of the upcoming ‘Jamla Is The Squad’ compilation that’s dropping on January 28th.

North Carolina producer & emcee Sean Boog releases the first single to his upcoming project ‘Sean Boogie Nights’ dropping July 10th. Representing 1/2 of the group The Away Team, he grabs his rhyme & producing partner Khrysis to spit over this “A Love Never Dies” track produced by 9th Wonder & adds a female voice to it with Rapsody.

Rapsody – ‘ABC’ (Video)

New track from Rapsody from her For Everything project which is out now.

Rapsody – “All Black Everything” (Video)

North Carolina’s own Rapsody drops a new video for “All Black Everything” from her latest project “For Everything”. I know Rapsody is & has mentioned often that she’s inspired by Jay-Z, but lately I’ve been feeling like she’s mimicking him a little too much. Even with this song title “All Black Everything” which is a phrase Jay has been promoting for a minute. It’s ok to be inspired by other artists, but don’t lose your own voice & style in the process. It’s a turn-off to your OWN growing fanbase in my opinion. I know this is random, but fellow Jamla artist Heather Victoria appearing in the video at the :37mark gave me a slight heart murmur. On another rather ironic note, this “All Black Everything” video was directed by the talented AND white Kenneth Price & produced by the equally as dope & white Eric G. Hahaaa!

GQ – Trouble Man (EP)
