[Mixtape] DJ Agile presents Playlist: Underground Hip-Hop

Great underground hip-hop mix from the excellent T.dot DJ, Agile. Many of these tracks have been featured on The Kitchen over the past few weeks and months but they are mixed immaculately here by Agile so, unlike many of the throwaway mixtapes which come out nowadays that are old within a couple days (those ones I try to avoid posting here anyway), this sounds great anyway so go ‘head and ROCK THIS!!!!

[MP3] Relic the Oddity – The Green Light (FULL Album Stream)

I posted the excellet Persona album by Elaquent (aka eQ) a little while back. Now here’s another album by a Canadian artist/producer (I’d say T.dot but he’s actually from GTA suburb, Brampton – yes, the same place Micheal Cera’s from!) that has agreed to get down with the long-delayed Connoisseurs of Culture T.dot-meets-DMV collaborative EP project that’s about to re-launch. Relic the Oddity’s The Green Light is a gem of an underground hip-hop album. Check it below:

Below is the official video for the Fresh Kils Remix the track, “Time Machine” from The Green Light album. BTW: Fresh Kils is getting down with the COC movement too! Get on our level, people!

[Music Video] In Support of Kids Help Phone: Eternia & MoSS – To The Future

This video is deep! Read on to find out why….

Two-time Juno-Nominated Recording Artist Eternia is partnering with Canada’s leading youth counselling service, KIDS HELP PHONE to release ‘To The Future’, the third video single from Eternia & MoSS ‘AT LAST’ (Fatbeats Records / E1 Canada).

In ‘To the Future’, Canadian Hip Hop Artist Eternia bravely explores the skeletons in her own closet, detailing a first-hand account of sexual assault, domestic abuse, gun violence and abortion. The bone-chilling song, written as a letter to Eternia’s future husband, is interpreted on film by Canadian video director Erica Shallow (TwoThreeFive Films). Set in a bare-bone, abandoned housing block, the music video portrays a stripped-down, natural and vulnerable artist performing directly to camera the painful reality of her teenage years.

“… That same year, I was assaulted with a gun. These dudes locked me in a room, molested me for fun…”
Eternia ‘To the Future’ Lyrics: CLICK HERE

Every 90 seconds in America someone is sexually assaulted. Eternia and MoSS know that many young people face the same issues that Eternia did as a teenager and young adult, and so they have partnered with Canada’s leading youth counseling service, Kids Help Phone, to bring the message of hope and help along with Eternia’s personal story.

“We feel that Eternia’s video is quite powerful and deals with some hard hitting, relevant issues and feelings that youth across Canada contact our services about….”
David Holmes, National Marketing Manager, Kids Help Phone

Available by phone and web, in English and in French, any time of the day or night, Kids Help Phone’s professional counselors offer compassionate, non-judgemental, and confidential help to kids age five to twenty, no matter the question, no matter the problem.
