Melatonin Magik album by Canibus

Posted by Masta Sylo On 11:43 PM 0 comments

Somethig new and fresh for 2010, Milatonin Magik, this is the album which Canibus reignites his beef with Eminem on “Air Strike (Pop Killer), with verses like,

"You ain't no Hip-Hop messiah
You a bitch cuz you dissed Mariah
Shit like that is supposed to be private
I'mma fry you on behalf of Mariah & Michael
Put you back on them drugs, make you suicidal"


Canibus is a lyricist who pens skillful verses and leave many with open mouths. Although sometimes he is one angry emcee, he’s focused on showcasing his skills and letting the world know what’s got him frustrated and upset. This album is no different, he is the same Canibus of 2000 BC. The album is dope and worth checking out for.

 

Listen to Melatonin Magik (Track 2) below;



From his outrageous live shows to his undeniable ability to out rap anybody alive, R.A. The Rugged Man has become one of the most exciting artists in hip hop history. Although he's only released one album in his 18-year career, he has recorded hundreds of songs with some of the biggest names in the game. Since many of these songs were never commercially available, R.A. decided to compile them for his fans in Legendary Classics. This album features Notorious B.I.G., Mobb Deep, Kool G Rap, Bucwild, Ayatollah, Jedi Mind Tricks, Sadat X, Akinyele, Tragedy, J-Live and others. The limited-edition collection comes with track by track commentary by R.A. and a bonus DVD full of live performances, interviews and music videos.

Elizabeth Album by Killah Priest

Posted by Masta Sylo On 5:49 AM 1 comments

He 's been called a prophet, an innovator, a poet; whichever you prefer, the emcee known as Killah Priest is certainly one of the most vivid lyricists in Hip Hop. Priest first entranced listeners on the classic track "B.I.B.L.E. (Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth)" on GZA's seminal debut LP Liquid Swords. Since then Priest has continued to enthrall devotees of true Hip Hop with his lush imagery, graphic storytelling and razor-sharp rhymes. Now the Rap veteran and Wu affiliate returns with "Elizabeth (Introduction To The Psychic)". Priest delivers a solid full length of head nodders sure to satisfy Wu-Tang fans worldwide all while staying true to his spiritual side and his firm belief in the power of Hip Hop. "Elizabeth" is the first release on Priest's own Proverb Records. Production on "Elizabeth" is handled by frequent Killah Priest collaborator DJ Woool.

Boy Meets the World Album by Fashawn

Posted by Masta Sylo On 5:44 AM 1 comments

With all the talk that hip-hop is dead, there's no better example than Fashawn to prove that it's certainly alive, well and being fed to a hungry new generation of hip-hop fans. And after listening to just 16 bars it's evident that Fashawn is one of the hungriest. He's a prodigal son, part of a new generation of emcees lucky enough to
grow up in hip-hop's golden era. He's not an '80s baby; he's a '90s baby. Think about that for a second. Then think about his potential.

Hailing from Fresno, California, Fashawn has all the charisma of a modern-day emcee and the rhyming chops of a veteran beyond his years. For a 20-year-old, his raw talent, songwriting ability and versatility, is...well, it's phenomenal.

Recognized already as a leader in Central California's hip hop scene, steering a vibrant pack of young artists with his innovative style and originality in his music, Fashawn is more than ready to take on the world with his debut album Boy Meets World. Produced entirely by Los Angeles native Exile, Boy Meets World is just a story about a kid growing up, explains Fashawn. It's my story, it's very honest, it's very in depth. So whatever you thought you knew about me, listen to this and you ll really get a good look at who I am. It's going to be classic.

Oasis Album -O.C. & A.G.

Posted by Masta Sylo On 5:23 AM 1 comments

The Legendary New York MCs, O.C. & A.G. return once again to quench the thirst of hip-hop fans worldwide. The album, refreshingly titled, OASIS, is executive produced by Show (of Showbiz & AG fame) and features stellar production by Show, Lord Finesse, E. Blaze, and Statik Selektah. O & A, longtime friends and crewmates, first collaborated together on the classic track "Weed & Drinks" and ever since then talked about doing a whole album together. "Its was organic cause the chemistry was also so crazy, explains OC. "The whole process was really pure and from the heart and hip-hop fans are gonna love it!", says AG about their new album.

With a combined 10+ albums under their belt, its amazing how the guys stay relevant after all these years. A.G. explains, "For me, it's the passion, when you're passionate about something, you stay inspired, through the good and the bad". When speaking about the significance of the album title OASIS, O.C adds "It's 2009 and both AG and myself have something new and fresh to offer. Fans have been searching for something like this for a long time and finally here it is

Get this CD Oasis

There is definitely something to be said for the magnanimous impact of two legends teaming up, in no uncertain terms, to do work. With both of their reputations firmly solidified in the annals of hip-hop, true O.G.s Masta Ace and Edo. G have joined forces to show these wet-behind-the-ears rookies how it goes, with the release of Arts & Entertainment. The aggressive “Hands High” lets all competition know that the two vets haven’t lost a step, as Edo. G spits lines like “We cowboy these rappers like Tony Romo.” The soul-sampling “Reminds Me” is a mellow track that sees the two reminiscing on how long they’ve made a name for themselves in the game, while the monumental “Pass The Mic” (featuring KRS-One) is a history lesson on wax if there’s ever been one. Trading verbal venom on the aforementioned track, Ace, Edo, and KRS are in rare form, with each of their verses sounding as crisp as they ever have. With a fire rarely seen, even in artists half their age, and hard-hitting production from the likes of DJ Spinna and M-Phazes, Arts & Entertainment is one of the hardest records to come out in a while and is sure to be a favorite of anyone who reminisces fondly of the days of the boom-bap.

Survival Skills By KRS-One and BuckShot

Posted by Masta Sylo On 12:24 AM 0 comments

After making their indelible marks on the game luminaries KRS-One and Buckshot, arguably two of the games most prolific emcees, will link up to give fans a collaborative album entitled SURVIVAL SKILLS.
With guests ranging from Mary J. Blige, Slug Of Atmosphere, K'NAAN, Talib Kweli, Immortal Technique, Melanie Fiona, Naledge of Kidz In The Hall, Sean Price, Geo of Blue Scholars, Pharoahe Monch, Bounty Killer, Smif N Wessun and Rock of Heltah Skeltah, "Survival Skills" represents a diverse range of topics, all while maintaining a consistent sound. The album has production from Havoc of Mobb Deep, 9th Wonder, Black Milk, ILL MIND, Coptic, Moss, Nottz, Marco Polo, and KHRYSIS!
On the surface the album is a testament to the resiliency of two lyrical titans, but at its root SURVIVAL SKILLS is a blueprint for life. For instance on the infectious head-nodder "Robot," which was released 6 weeks prior to Jay Z's "The Death Of Auto Tune" track, and already available World Wide at Digital Retail Shops, such as iTunes, the duo speak-out against the recent overuse of the Auto-Tune vocal effect in urban music, but under the surface the message is much deeper. "I don't want people to get the averaged clichéd version and thinking that we're dissing people,'" Buckshot clarifies. "What we're calling out here is the biters, the people that feel like because this guy sold X amount of records doing this, that I'm going to turn around and do it as well," KRS says of the array of artists who have followed in the creative footsteps of Roger Troutman, Afrikka Bambatta, Teddy Riley and T-Pain. Despite its heavy message, sonically the track, produced by Mobb Deep's Havoc, is as inviting as anything on the radio today. The video for "ROBOT," directed by Todd Angkaswan, has been added into rotation at MTV & BET. The track has also been included in the sound track for Activision's upcoming Tony Hawk skate game in stores this Fall.
Still gritty tracks like "Clean Up," featuring Rock of Heltah Skeltah and the politically minded "Running Away" featuring Immortal Technique, make Survival Skills a Hip-Hop fan's dream, catering to those that love lyrics and the boom-bap. Equally as rich is the album's Black Milk-produced track, "The Way I Live" featuring the Queen of hip-hop soul, Mary J. Blige. Together they create a triumphant anthem for all those on the grind trying to conquer their dreams. The song's summery feel and soothing melodies make it an instant hit.
