The Nu Skool Eminem? Dude’s currently on tour with Logic so maybe….
I don’t know how this would stand up from a pure hip-hop point of view to be frank but could this go all the way as a pop record?
Latest single from a new young artist from Brooklyn managed by the homie, King Smij. RIYL Rae Sremmurd, Ayo & Teo or any other hip-hop acts that have broken from Musical.ly! (And bonus points for the Toronto Caribana shout-out too!)
We previewed it with a posts on the singles, “Ghul Baby” and the title track, but No Mercy For The Weak, the latest album by the homie, Ag Al Ghul (aka Agallah, Agallah Faro, Agallah Don Bishop and, way back in the day 8Off the Assassin) is finally out! The latest single (video above) is “Al Ghul is the Man.” Stream the album right here via Bandcamp or CLICK HERE to listen to it on your preferred streaming platform.
Another week, another premiere of more great, new music by yet another great act from right here in The 6ix. We’re truly in a Golden Age of music in Toronto. Honors is a relatively new group we just got up on but they are quickly becoming one of our favorites. Here’s the background on their excellent new two song single release which is out today and officially premiering here at the Kitchen:
Toronto alt-r&b collective HONORS, who have already allotted over 20 million streams and reached #1 on Spotify’s Global Viral chart, lean into moody atmospherics on their new release. Led by an equal parts sleek, sultry, and ultimately infectious single called “X2UO”, it also comes equipped with a thunderous b-side cut called “Control”. The two tracks offer a glimpse at what’s to come on HONORS’ forthcoming debut EP which is slated to drop this fall, not to mention what they’ll bring to the live circuit as they head out on the road in support of NoMBe.
