CZARFACE Ft. Method Man - "Nightcrawler"

Ok so this has been out for almost two weeks but whatever, as I haven't really had time or lust to update the blog lately, I still want to throw this banger up because this is some heavy hitting shit with INS and Method Man really goes IN over the immaculate production by 7L. I'm not a big fan of Esoteric to say the last but with the guests, production and Deck's performance this is definitely an album any hip-hop head will want to hear. Released on Friday via BRICK Records, this single alone got me a little hype for the album especially considering I relaly couldn't get into the first installment for several reasons. The first single from "Every Hero Need A Villian" which drops on June 12, available on both CD and wax with the former including some nice bonus items like a full-color comic book. Order @ UGHH and also peep the Meyhem Lauren single "Deadly Class" below.

[EP] NUTSO - "I Plead The 5th" (2013)

With all the extreme amount of super dope material being released on a regular basis you know it's inevitable that you're gonna miss out on some really sick releases every now and then. Even this year there's some heavy releases that I've been looking forward to that I haven't even banged out yet (Cannibal Ox, Mr. Green / Malik B.). But today I noticed on my FB that the always trustworthy EgoTripLand had posted a 2013 single by severely ill Queens spitter Nutso (p/k/a Nut-Rageous) featuring Kool G Rap and Mic Geronimo (DAMN!). It turns out this is actually a track from a Bandcamp EP that Nutso released in the spring of 2013 called "I Plead The 5th". As I'm listening to the six tracks that make up the EP I am blown away by how dope this is, 

"I Plead The 5th" is a collaboration with producer 5th Seal (hence the double entendre of the EP:s name) who supplies Nutso's rugged lyrics and delivery with a soulful boom bap type of sound that really does the emcee justice. I'm a sucker for the one MC/one DJ formula and the three full projects that I know from Nutso's catalouge are all done in that matter - this one, 2013's excellent collaboration with French boom bap maestro DJ Low Cut called "In The Cut" and most recently that brand new 2015 EP with the homies Divided Souls Entertainment and DJ Pain 1 ("Divided Souls") that is one of the five best albums of the year so far if you ask me. Stream the entirety of "I Plead The 5th" below via Bandcamp where you can also download a HQ Mp3 download in the digital format of your choice. Features comes from Kool G Rap, Mic Geronimo, Punchline, Wais P, Meyhem Lauren, AG Da Coroner, J-Love, and a couple of others. Satisfaction guaranteed!

[Video] MEYHEM LAUREN - "Silk Shirts & Yellow Gold"

A whole lotta ass up in the first video to Meyhem Lauren's collaboration with super producer Buckwild. Be sure to support "Silk Pyramids" if you haven't aready, by far one of the best projects of the year.
