NAMETAG x NAMELESS - "Reaction Remix"

Producer/MC team Nametag & Nameless have quickly risen to one of the foremost flagbearers of Detroit hip-hop, and throughout 2013 they have steadily slugged out banger upon banger - including the LP "For Namesake". For their latest single, the duo has touched up the album track "Reaction" (featuring Miz Korona) into one of their hottest tracks yet.

Nametag & Nameless - "Awwwe Man!"

Detroit duo Nametag and Nameless had the summer on lock with their tight debut abum "For Namesake". These guys shows no signs of slowing down as they got a new release lined up already for tomorrow, called "For Namesake - Redo". While not a new album per se, the 12 tracks deep digital project features a mix of brand new tracks and remixes of some of the choice cuts from the original album. "Redo" is available from iTunes tomorrow, but till then check out the hot single "Awwwe Man!" below.

NAMETAG / NAMELESS - "BLAOW!! Remix"

Detroit MC/producer duo Nametatag + Nameless have been making some seriously dope noise this year with their first, and self-titled, full-length together. While the album has gained quite positive reviews from hip-hop journalists and fans alike, the guys makes sure to continue the success with an upcoming project called "Redo". The 20-track set is a full remix album of their recent project, that will drop as a digital release, also put out by Brick Records. For an early taste of what to expect to come, the guys have unleashed the first single which comes in the form of the "C.R.E.A.M." homage remix to "BLAOW!!" - I can dig it!

[Video] Nametag + Nameless - "The Teacher"

One of the finest albums of the year came from Detroit duo Nametag + Nameless who dropped their "For Namesake" a short time back. One especially fine cut from the LP is "The Teacher" which is a great example of the fine chemistry between emcee Nametag and beat maestro Nameless, though it's a more polished sound than on the majority of the record. Order the Brick Records CD @ UGHH!

Nametag & Nameless - "Oxyxmoron" (Ft. Black Milk)

Nametag and Nameless brings that raw street soul straight from the D on their latest single, "Oxymoron" which is lifted from the just released "For Namesake". Nametag on the rhymes, Nameless on the beats, Black Milk, Guilty Simpson, and Miz Korona holding down the guest spots... Grab it @ iTunes ASAP!

[Mixtape] HOUSE SHOES x BIG - "Dreams"

Legendary Detroit DJ and producer House Shoes'' "Dreams: B.I.G. Re-Imagined" is a little different from the usual BIG tribute. Rather than rushing it out for a 9:th release, the initial idea came to Shoes on that date and since then he has been on work on the project. The initial idea was to send out a bunch of classic BIG accapellas to a bunch of his producer homies, resulting in fresh takes by innovative producers such as Nottz, Wajeed, Khrysis, Quelle Chris, Nameless, 14KT, Brenk Sinatra, and of course House Shoes himself. I'm usually not that fond of new interpretations of the true classics, but Shoes did a real great job here and there's a lot of music on it that deserves to be heard, so make sure to press play ASAP!

Nametag x Nameless -"Watcha Want"

NameTag is an emcee from Detroit, MI that I bet a lot of people are sleeping on. I first heard him on Black Milk's debut "Sound Of The City" and since then he has appeared on a slew of Milk releases. The kid definitely got skills as proven by the Nameless produced single "Watcha Want" which will appear on the rapper/producer duo's album "For Namesake" which is distributed by Brick Records on April 16.
