The title track was released about 3 weeks ago. Then “Straight Gutta” featuring long-time collaborator, Redman and crew affiliate, Streetlife yesterday. Hip-hop just like your dad used to tell you about! The Meth Lab album: in stores, August 21 on Tommy Boy.
Both tracks are immense. Only came up on that Boogie track from watching this #1Mic video earlier today.
BTW: Vic Mensa is coming to Toronto, live at The Hoxton, August 17.
Sampling Ginuwine‘s “Pony”, no?? I’ve long contended that if “Pony” came out today it would still be a hit. Song sounds as fresh and current today as when it dropped in 1996 almost 20 years ago!
Also, this dude Fetty Wap again??! BTW: check out the DJ Emkay remix of Wap’s “RGF Island” HERE in case you missed the Different Kitchen premiere last week and on my word, I had no idea, Wap was from Jersey. I honestly assumed he was a Southern rapper.
Can’t go wrong when using samples of Bob James‘ “Nautilus.” Is Brooklyn MC, Ockz debut album Halal Chinese Food, really the “Muslim Illmatic” though??!
Nicki and Iggy (!) aside, there’s not enough female hip-hop in the game nowadays so this new track, produced By Mista Lawnge of BlackSheep is more than welcome:
Individually they are: Carolina Dirty, Dominique Larue, Monie Love and MyVerse. Collaboratively they make up, Heresy an all-female Hip Hop group that will quickly remind you, what you’ve been missing in Hip Hop music.
All well established Emcees in their own right; united, these ladies are a calculated combination of strength and femininity. In their self-titled EP, HERESY set for release on August 14th 2015, they share their stories and keep it – Ladies First.
Y’all dig?
