[Album] GUMMY SOUL - "Bap City: The Video Remixes"

A lot of cool new albums up for free streaming today, which is always welcome and if you have a calm night at home just listening to new music this is a great night for sure. Next in line is the new project from producer Gummy Soul a.k.a. Amerigo Gazaway, who since he first entered the scene with immaculate remix projects for De La Soul vs. Fela Kuti and Souls Of Mischief, has continued his fast-rising career with both original material and more remixes and mash-ups of classic '90s hip-hop. 

"Bap City: The Video Remixes" is available as an eight track digital audio album where you can name your own price for download, as well as a DVD release featuring all the videos for the remixes from the project - which you can check out here. The DVD is available for $10 USD and starts shipping out tomorrow. The mini album features Gummy Soul's blending his vintage sound of jazz and funk samples, knocking drums, well placed cuts, and melodic interludes with vocals from some absolute hip-hop classics such as AZ's "The Fomat", M.O.P./Heather B's "My Kinda Nigga", "Wrong Side of the Tracks" by Artifacts, Teflon's "Get Mine", G Rap's"It's A Shame", The Beatnuts' "Hit Me With That", "Hustllin'" by Smoothe Da Hustler and last but not least an immaculate version of Tha Liks / Diamond D collaboration "The Next Level" - in other words a great front to back listen,, so what are you waiting for?!

Heather B's "Open Bar"

It's now almost been a full decade since we last was blessed with a full-length album from monstrous femcee Heather B.In 2002 she released "Eternal Affairs", a relatively neat LP that featured production by DJ Premier and Pete Rock but her real crowning achievment was her 1996 debut "Takin' Mine"; fully produced by BDP's Kenny Parker. Between '96 and now she has dropped several quality verses via various cameos and soundtracks, proving she's still one emcee you certainly wouldn't want to battle.

I'm glad to announce that brand new Heather B. material is currently on the way and we already got a few sneak peaks of what to expect which you can check out at the bottom of this post. A mixtape entitled "Spit Queen" is on the way but what we're really anticipating is Heather's new full-length album, "Open Bar"; eight years in the making and an executive producer credit to DJ Premier promises great things! Below you can peep three relatively new songs from the true Queen MC - "The Game Don't Stop" is laced by her original P.N.C. Kenny Parker, "Dreamer" and "Flying High" are both mixed by Preemo and the former is produced by Nottz Raw while the latter lacks a production credit (and has also been out for almost a year by now but for anyone who might've missed it, don't sleep). Enjoy these  bangers and many thanks to Chris Moss for sending these over to me!
