I don’t have the dedication of the NMC, but occasionally some tracks pique my interest enough to warrant a post. After the jump, three tracks from up-and-coming artists, along with a new A-Town mixtape.
Cymarshal Law: Live While You Can
Don’t know too much about the dude, but he comes nice with this one, a real chill vibe. Find more over at Hip Hop Update.
88-Keys: Ho’ Is Short For Honey ft. Kid Cudi
The newest producer-turned-rapper releases his album, The Death of Adam next Tuesday. Kanye’s been seriously involved in this project, and based on his mixtape stuff, we can expect a solid offering. illRoots has three tracks from the cd.
Black Ghosts: Repetition Kills You (R.A.C. remix)
I’m just getting into the punk/electronic scene, so I gotta rely on Panda Toes to guide me, but they come through with the R.A.C.’s remix of the Ghosts’ self-titled album.
Fki: Blue Steel (Mixtape)
illRoots has the interview, shedding some light on the Atlanta duo. I’m really feeling the Zoolander concept, and it works well with the party atmosphere stylings of 1st Down and 88. I’m adopting ‘Zooly’ into my vocab. Features a guest spot from XV.
