[MP3] BROOKZILL! – Saudade Songbook Feat. Count Bass D

Excited by the first new De La Soul album in 11 years that just dropped last Friday? Then ICYMI, FYI: the co-architect of that group’s seminal debut album 3 Feet High and Rising, Prince Paul has just dropped his first new music in a while, “Saudade Songbook”, the lead-off single from the Throwback to the Future, an album by BROOKZILL!, a hip-hop/Brazilian concept supergroup featuring Paul, Ladybug Mecca of Digable Planets, Don Newkirk and Gorila Urbano.

[MP3 + Music Video] Young M.A – OOOUUU

I’ll admit: I’m crazy late on this like I’m Funkmaster Flex getting roasted by Drake but I didn’t really find out what this record was until I saw this Fader FB post. I was gonna be snarky and say I’d never heard this record once when I was in Bed-Stuy for two weeks a short while back but when I played it, a light bulb went off! This was the track I’d heard on Gates Ave. but was never able to find out what it was. It’s a banger, no doubt and her social politics are great: she got the streets rockin’ to an LGBTQ anthem!

[MP3] Tory Lanez – Diamonds (prod. C-Sick)

Latest single release from Toronto rapper, Tory Lanez‘ I Told You official debut album dropping tomorrow (Aug. 19). Can’t read the buzz for this record. Feels a little muted but I’m not in the middle of the world it’s targeting, truth be told.
