You gotta love it when an artist takes the time to really make a remix/refix/refilpre-whatever their own. The homie JULiA LEWiS take some inspiration from the Bull’s official warm up music in his tribute to the OG Jumpman himself.
From JULiA LEWiS:
More than a nod to drake or future, this one is an ode to Michael jordan (a childhood hero *pre-gambling problems, *pre-misogyny, lol). He wasn’t just an athletic inspiration for me, but also a model for work ethic and determination. I transposed the Chicago bulls warmup song to fit underneath parts of the beat, to bring it all together. Can you catch it?
Yung lean is back with a new track and video after putting out pretty much another over the last 12 months. “Hoover” bangs with solid production from the almighty Yung Gud and Young lean’s flow is sounding better than ever. Well done boys.
Another awesome project from Sango. You can buy Da Rocinha 3 here. More info down below.
“Da Rocinha 3 is about keeping the funk roots true and paying homage to the ones that helped start it. I want to respect and show Rocinha in a positive light with this record while staying true to my sound. “
Danny Seth’s “Perception” is one of my favorite hip hop projects of 2015. His lyricism and energy is refreshing for an old hip hop head like myself and I was lucky enough to be in LA during his first official show and Danny did not disappoint. Check out his performance of “I Arise Because”. It was probably his best track of the night and I was lucky enough to catch thee whole thing.
Keith Ape has been tearing shit up in 2015. On “Vigorous” he teams up with Denzel Curry over a trapped out beat from Ronny J and everybody delivers full force.
There is so much great music coming out right now. I can hardly keep up and me just getting around to posting this EP is proof of that. “They” are ridiculous and continue to show how versatile the trap sound can really be. Their new ep “Nü Religion” may only be 3 songs long, but these tracks are pretty much perfect and should be played loudly as your riding around town. I can;t wait to see this shit live. Mind Of A Genius have struck gold once again! Enjoy.

Another dope white rapper get’s some love on AH today as Classified (Canada stand up) is back with some fire featuring cuts from Premo himself. Shout out to everybody still banging that boom bap.

Benefit has always been a huge inspiration to me. His track “So Sick” (see down below) had such crazy word play and the whole thing was recorded on a shitty computer mic which I still think is mad crazy and to this day he continues to spit nasty..
On “The Original” he teams up with the almighty beat creator (and dope ass rapper himself) Mr. Green for a track that pays homage to the original art that is Hip hop. Check out the story behind the video below.

“This video was shot when Benefit was visiting NYC for the first official Live from the Streets album release party. We didn’t really have a plan but we knew Ben was only here for a couple days so we got busy and shot as much as we could. In addition to this video we also filmed a video for “if i don’t go to hell” including cameos from the wonderful Janice. That video will come out down the road as a part of the ongoing Live from the Streets saga. I honestly don’t know what the future holds for the show but I know we’ve created something truly special with LFTS and I know that we aren’t even close to finished.
This video is special to me because it features some of the best moments in the Live from the Streets
show over the last couple years along with a couple glimpses into future episodes (like Sean Price and Odb).
It’s also special because it’s my first time rhyming on a real song. Shoutout to the legendary Benefit for hearing me rhyme and then convincing me to jump on a real song. If enough people ask me to I might put out more rhymes… we will see.”
‘The Original’ feat. Benefit is featured on the first
official LFTS album out now on Duck Down Records:
This week’s edition of #FutureFeels is a little heavier on the hip hop side but still features some very solid production from the likes on graves, mayhem & antiserum, rare, akihabara, ZHU, and many more. Shout out to 4Real for liberating that unreleased Goldlink track. I’m sure he was probably pissed about that lol.
Enjoy!
